@dieworkwear He would fully understand and implement the separation of church and state.

@travisakers Federal pardons are only for federal crimes/wrong doings. They don’t pardon one from state or international level stuff.

Preemptively stating that you are going to pardon your entire staff and yourself before leaving office is one of the biggest admissions of guilt I have ever seen.

@McFranchisee Half of the stalls at the largest farmers market in my county also sell to Whole Foods. Like, exact same product. And it’s cheaper at WF. They let in a wholesale bread vendor who sells to half the restraunts and delis in SF. They have a cheese vendor who’s also in Costco. 🤦🏼‍♀️

I don’t go to farmers markets often but went last weekend. Twenty years ago, you went because prices were similar to a grocery store, but you were supporting local people. I sampled some local bacon. Turns out it was $20 per lb 😳 I guess I’m pretty oblivious. I get worried about raising a price by 10¢ and we have people selling $20 packs of bacon. I think I was the only one taken aback by the prices because people were buying. Anyone else priced out of today’s farmers markets or do I just need to take out a secondary mortgage before I go next time? 😂

@tolstoybb @BechdelCast This might not be a film but it is truly an epic cinematic moment in the history of women.

🚨BREAKING: The Moon mission just passed the Bechdel test as mission specialist Christina Koch communicates with Houston's Jenni Gibbons.

@UziCryptoo And all programs to help people shouldn’t be based on pre-taxed income. It should be based on what you actually take home.

HOT TAKE: IF BUSINESSES ONLY HAVE TO PAY TAXES ON PROFIT, NOT REVENUE, THEN I SHOULD ONLY HAVE TO PAY TAXES AFTER I'VE PAID ALL MY BILLS AND RENT.

@spoonfulofhan I was on a science based non profit board during the pandemic. Monthly lectures, on zoom/YT/FB, totally free. People from all over the county could attend. When we went back to in person, the new board Pres decided to end all streaming, accessibility was a “waste of time” to him

Remote work during lockdown and events such as concerts being streamed online proved that accommodating disabled people was never difficult

I do not trust stores/shops that charge more than 99¢ for a can of Arizona. They have to purposely order the cans without the price on them. This morning I saw $1.79 and $2.99. Third store was 89¢.

@1ssve My trick - make a contact “2026 Junk”. Add the junk callers and texters to that contact. Block that contact. I have one for each year since I got an iPhone.

Dear Apple, The “Delete and Report as Junk” feature would be great, if it worked. Thanks 🥴

Only 1% of oil comes thru the Strait of Hormuz yet the price per gallon where I live has gone up by $2 in the past two weeks. And we haven’t even switched to the summer blend yet which increases price by at least $1. At this rate by the end of next month, $10/gallon.

@glenn_tunes A lot of us are fully aware, horrified, living in a perpetual anxiety. But rent is still due. My jobs still expect me. If I lose any one of the four jobs I have, I won’t find a new one let alone be able to pay bills to simply survive.

IS IT JUST ME OR DOES IT SEEM LIKE PEOPLE IN AMERICA DON'T FULLY REALIZE HOW FUCKING SERIOUS THE TRUMP DISASTER IS 🤷

@lyndseyfifield Things are designed to work for just 10% longer than the base warranty. There is no longer life time warranties bc things are not designed and built to last that long. Companies don’t make money if you only have to buy it once every 20 years or longer.

Our deep freezer full of meat and food just went out. We bought it in 2021. I have friends coming to take whatever they can before it is all wasted. Called the 1800 number and a barely-understandable representative very politely told me we are out of warranty and there are no technicians who can fix it. My parents had the same deep freezer for 40 years. In the last 5 years we’ve replaced our <5 year old washing machine, two vacuums, garbage disposal… Our dishwasher probably needs replacing soon. I’m just so tired of this. I WANT to “buy once cry once” as I was raised—to invest in well made things built to last. Where the actual hell are they?

@JoePontillo Check your local library. A lot of them have fantastic DVD collections. A lot of them also have great online resources and connections to very random streaming services.

If I have to pay $6 to rent a 40 year old movie off Amazon when I have a Prime subscription then we should just reopen Blockbuster. I'd rather have their employees judge my life choices.

@RainyRentyn If you decide to make it from scratch and want to put kiwi chunks in it. Test freezing some small chunks of kiwi, like chocolate chip size or what ever you want the chunks to be. If the frozen kiwi is too hard, soak them in simple syrup. The sugar will help them stay a bit softer

My husband once told me about this delicious Kiwi gelato he had when he was in Italy. Years later, we visited Italy together. He took me to the gelato shop he had visited years prior, but they no longer sold the kiwi flavor. He was so disappointed that he couldn't have it again & that I never got to try it. Now every time I see a gelato shop I check to see if they have kiwi. Just so maybe I can find him the flavor he has been missing. I still haven't found a place that has it, but I'm hoping one day I do 🥝

@ick_real Putting pay is in a job listing is a law in CA. They get around it by putting a range. Saw a listing today for $40k-$150k. That’s a big range.

PUT THE DAMN PAY IN THE JOB DESCRIPTION. WE’RE TIRED. 😭

I got a .57 raise this year. I was told I should be grateful I got that as the past two years I haven't gotten anything. And told the usual, "if you don't like it, you can leave" by someone who was given a 15% raise increase and hasn't applied for a job in 35 years. #frustration

Hey @costco please add a broccoli cheddar bake to the food court. Or a roasted veggie and cheese bake. Same style as the chicken bake, but okay for veggies.

@BlisterPearl When the only punishment for breaking a law is a fine, it’s only a law for the poor.

When you can purchase US citizenship, the people being hunted in the streets are only guilty of being poor. #NickiMinaj

@ljmontello I like the boomers that only have a high school degree that hold a job that now requires a mba/masters to even apply for the entry level jobs at the same company. They are always the first to say “if you don’t like your job, just go get another one”.

The same Boomers who brag about paying for college tuition on a summer job without debt also lecture young people about how the minimum wage isn't meant to be a living wage & without seeing a single contradiction in doing so.

@neet_sol And most of them don’t have the qualification for an entry level job at the company they work at let alone their own job, they only have it bc they have been there for 20+ years.

Boomers be like "just walk into the office and ask for a job" The office: locked The recruiter: AI The interview: automated The rejection email: instant

If a company has items for sale at Costco, they shouldn’t be allowed to have a booth at a local farmers market. If your produce is in Whole Foods across the state, you shouldn’t be at a farmers market. Especially when it’s more expensive at the farmers market.
