Still“Trying”2 Remain an Eternal Optimist☮️🟧🇺🇦

Think about it. 😳👇

Just one picture of a woman being so successful and doing something no woman ever has, has a few small men seething in the comments. She is the engineering expert on the crew and every video of her is better than the last. This is her in 2023 and now. Christina Koch is special❤️

I have not seen a single mainstream media outlet give this the attention it deserves. Israel blew up an entire Lebanese town, an ancient place. It should be headline news. There’s footage of it happening. Imagine this was your town, and you saw every building blown up by a terrorist army to prevent you from ever returning. You would at the very least expect wall to wall coverage. Instead it passes without a word. It’s not the only town Israel has blown up. And sadly it probably won’t be the last.

Ahora todo tiene sentido, no era una operación de rescate, era todo mentira, pretendían asaltar la central nuclear y robar todo el uranio almacenado. Han perdido 12 aviones.

I just got back from Cuba, where I visited a maternity ward with premature babies whose lives depend on incubators and ventilators — equipment that is at risk with energy shortages. The U.S. is effectively bombing Cuba's entire energy infrastructure. We must stop this cruelty.

Karoline Leavitt actually said, "It's hard for President Trump to make key decisions on Iran when he doesn't have enough intelligence." Bless her heart

Congress is on recess. But don’t worry, they’ll get right back to doing absolutely fucking nothing when they return.

Donald Trump says America can't afford daycare or Medicaid. But he's spent $100 million of your money on golf in 15 months. The money is there – he just decided it wasn't for you.

Completely corrupt. Expand the Court.

Absolute horror on Al Jazeera. Israeli forces just deliberately shot and killed a World Health Organization employee in Gaza. They opened fire on a UN vehicle, injuring multiple staff members. Israel is intentionally targeting the United Nations with zero accountability.

All the tech workers being terminated by companies run by billionaires who support Trump need to join the call for the Democrats to commit to taxing multi-billionaires out of existence. 90% on all income and estates over $100 million. No loopholes. Stock as comp over $100 million fully realized and recognized in the year it is committed.

@AP A “desire to stay active” Boy now there’s a BS spin to put on it 🙄 70+ here. Retired. LOTS one can do to stay active & engaged in retirement. Lots of things you CAN’T do? If you’ve had to go back to work - just to - survive……

After concluding decades-long careers at hospitals, universities and corporations, retirees are returning to the workforce due to insufficient retirement savings, rising living costs and a desire to stay active.

Another beekeeper killed by Israel in Lebanon. Marouf Rammal was on the board of The Beekeepers’ Union in south Lebanon.

That split second when your Slack message turns from "delivered" to nothing Senior fullstack engineer at a growth-stage healthtech startup. 11:47 AM on a Tuesday. Mid-sentence explaining a database migration to the team channel. Message just... vanishes. Like it never existed. Tries to refresh. "Unable to connect to workspace." Calendar shows 47 meetings for the rest of the week. Refreshes again. Calendar completely empty. Badge tap at the front door. Red light. Security guard won't make eye contact. Laptop still works but VPN won't authenticate. GitHub access revoked. AWS console throws permission errors. Phone buzzes. Text from his skip-level: "Really sorry man. Decision came from above. Your manager will call in an hour." That's when it hits. The AI pair programming tool they launched last month. The one he helped integrate. The one that's been completing entire functions while he watches. His replacement isn't a person. It's the tool he built. The manager call never comes. HR email arrives at 3:17 PM. "Role elimination due to evolving technical requirements." Stock options he's been vesting for 4 years? Forfeited. 90-day acceleration clause doesn't apply to "elimination for redundancy." His commits are still in main branch. His name still on 47 pull requests from last week. But he doesn't exist anymore. The AI is already writing better code than he ever did. Faster. Cheaper. No healthcare costs. No equity demands. No bathroom breaks. Welcome to the future of software engineering. Population: zero.

Pediatrician in South Carolina here. We could have done so much with that 35 million dollars: education, vaccines, healthy food, healthcare access. Instead, we spent it on an a measles outbreak that never needed to happen.

Let's be crystal clear: The world is NOT silent in the face of this demonic evil. It's the world's 'leaders' and their media propagandists who are silent, and complicit.

The civilisation that invented algebra is currently doing battle with the one that invented the hamburger. This is all you need to know.

The homeless man outside my University had a PhD in literature. I only found out because I dropped my book walking past him one day. He picked it up, looked at the cover, and said, "Ah, Virginia Woolf. Have you read her essays on consciousness?" One medical bankruptcy and a series of cascading disasters later, he's been on that corner for three years. "The difference between us," he said, "is about six months of bad luck." I think about that every time I complain about my problems.
