@omgsidewalks Yes. I was in Walmart with a friend and only about 1/3 of the items in clothing and housewares. I had to scan each item for a price. It’s not hard, but it made it tedious.

Not to be a boomer but I'm tired of scanning QR codes and downloading apps to literally do anything. can we just be human again

The city of Andernach, Germany planted 101 varieties of tomatoes in the town center and told everyone to take whatever they wanted. It was such a hit they did beans the next year, then added onions, fruit trees, lettuce, zucchini, berries, and herbs. All free to the public and maintained by the city. Andernach is now known as the "edible city." Philadelphia has been doing a version of this since 2007. The Philadelphia Orchard Project has helped establish 67 sites across the city with thousands of food-bearing trees. Baltimore is planting fruit trees on sidewalks. Seattle, Boston, San Francisco, and Asheville all have public urban orchards. A mature apple tree produces 400-500 pounds of fruit per year. A mature pear tree can produce for 75 years. We've decided our cities should have trees. We just haven't decided those trees should feed people. Would you support urban fruit trees and vegetables in your city?

Trump can only be removed under the 25th Amendment with the actions of this Republican vice president, this Republican cabinet, and this Republican-controlled Congress. So, if you're asking what Democrats are doing today, I'm not sure you understand how this all works.

@ChrisCarrollDC @aravosis @atrupar Necessary work but I hope he’s taking care of his mental health

.@ATRupar is genuinely a key reason so many people have stayed informed on politics over the last decade. Having seen him in action, I can say he’s an absolute machine who provides a real public service. Congrats to my friend on well-deserved recognition: thetimes.com/us/american-po…

@SarahLongwell25 @HawaiiDelilah You couldn’t run even a small company like this, or a small town. Why is he allowed to be so visibly out of control? Nothing can be done?

It’s madness.

@lukeisamazing @wtflanksteak Just let us have the daydream.

yeah, books love humidity and the elements!

@mcsquared34 @BreeNewsome The older I get, the angrier I get about all of the white washed history we were spoon fed.

Dentist Glen Goldstein says watching a past 60 Minutes report on a nonprofit serving Americans cut off from health care by cost nearly brought him to tears. “I immediately went online, looked it up, and registered,” he says. cbsn.ws/4vsrlOq

@michelle_byoung @ChildPleez007 I know. I alternate between anger and pure bewilderment. Like, how can the world keep spinning when everything is getting worse every day

I’m trying not to lose faith but it feels like we are never gonna get to the other side of this dystopian Trump nightmare…

@JustinWolfers @MEMrunner This would be more fascinating if it weren’t so frightening

It is utterly dispiriting how few of these bubbles are reliable sources of information.

Buying things isn’t fun anymore. Everything is either too expensive, poor quality, a subscription where you don’t actually own anything, benefits an evil corporation, or all of the above.

@ChrisDJackson @LqLana So much normalcy. Miss this lovely family.

📸 Ashley Biden shared this beautiful Biden family photo as they enjoyed Easter dinner together in California. Who else misses this family? I know I sure the hell do.

if you're The Onion writers do you just give up at this point

Can we PLEASE normalize putting summaries on the back of books again instead of reviews? I just genuinely want to know what the book is about before picking it up.

@BillHagertyTN That tracks

It’s official: President Donald J. Trump has issued his Complete and Total Endorsement of Bill Hagerty! Bill will keep us winning in Tennessee.

In 2022, Zach Randolph wrote about his love for the city of Memphis: “Listen man, Memphis is one of the most underrated cities in the country. They have so much underground talent in that city that hasn’t even been tapped yet. I know that for a fact. Memphis has so much creativity and history, just on the music side, from the blues to Isaac Hayes, to even Elvis. There’s no denying it’s a cultural city. But it’s a hard working town, you feel me? With blue collar, hard working people. It has its tough spots and rough moments, but the thing that makes Memphis special is that they accept all their people. People who got knocked down and got up resilient. People who ain’t got the prettiest journey story. Bottom line is, you can be you in Memphis — you don’t have to act a certain way. So when I got there, I felt like I fit right in.” playerstribu.ne/ZBo

I wrote this about Memphis. Strictly from the perspective of that city’s contributions to black music. Memphis is a city that has given us so much not only in regards to music but in civil rights and labor rights as well. I will never be on the side that Memphis deserves less.

It’s heartbreaking and infuriating

In a surprise twist, the Epstein files released the attorney general.
