@jelliewish Ahhh! This is a tough one.
Think this through carefully.
Are you willing to part with that hard-earned pound just for convenience?

@Arrogance_0024 It is because just ONE American man, ONE life !!! is more important than all of this.
Shocking that you can’t comprehend that 🤬

@burnsweneyepee @CyborgPeds Trust me, if you are complaining that your parents are not giving you free daycare then you are definitely NOT taking care of your parents in their old age.
You know why? Because you don’t think of them now only yourself. You feel entitled to THEIR time free of charge.
English
Boomer mindset is undefeated. And your children wont be giving up their carriers to serve as your unpaid care taker. They’ll just stick your ass in a home to get abused by stranger who may or may not let you sit in your own shit for days on end while you stare at a wall and wonder why no comes to visit. But hey. At least you got out of “babysitting”.
English
Tons of people responding to me for saying I’m not giving up my 32 year career as a physician to serve as my grandkids unpaid nanny. Sorry if I don’t respond to unrelated posts. I’m just going to mute everything today.

NYC 'Chief Equity Officer' announces “preliminary citywide racial equity plan."
“This plan was born from when New Yorkers were in the streets calling for justice."
Western Lensman@WesternLensman
Mamdani announces that a "racial equity plan” will be used in a "whole of government" approach to tackling affordability in NYC. “It places the work of 45 city agencies within a singular framework."

@ClownWorld I tip and it’s always 25%+.
Adding service charge to look after the team members is not my responsibility. The wording !!! It makes me part of management -do I get a salary?
So instead of getting $25+ for every $100 on my bill workers only get $12. How does this make sense?
English
A 12% service charge instead of tipping. It goes to the staff, but does this feel better or worse than leaving a tip yourself?

@TolentinoTeach New asst principals wanted to know why a student asked a question after I gave instructions twice, verbally and visually.
Apparently, asking students if they have any questions is a flaw in my teaching 🤦♀️
English
During my first year of teaching, there was a veteran teacher near my classroom with nearly thirty years of experience. She was methodical, well prepared, deeply professional, and ran a calm, well-managed classroom.
One day, I watched our assistant principal—someone who hadn’t taught in a classroom for over a decade—reprimand her for the way she managed her students.
I was stunned.
Sadly, this wasn’t an isolated moment. It reflects a pattern that shows up far too often in education: veteran teachers being treated like children by people who haven’t run a classroom in years.

@mehdirhasan The Iranian government is TELLING its people to go SHIELD these places so they don’t get bombed.
Doesn’t that bother you, even a little bit?
English
Sorry, what? Being a civilian at a civilian site is normal. What’s banned under the Geneva Convention is deliberately bombing civilian sites, especially those indispensable to everyday life.
Javier Blas@JavierBlas
Iran is likely to deploy human shields to its bridges and power plants tonight. The use of civilians as human shields is banned under the Geneva Conventions (article 51).
English
@CyborgPeds The entitlement this generation has. The total lack of awareness.
I babysit, sure. But I have a career. I work full time.
Why would some people think that should change?
English
We’re Gen X grandparents. I’m a full time physician. My wife runs a non-profit. When are we supposed to be daycare? Neither did we get daycare from our parents. Mine were attorneys, FIL was at the peak of his career as the king of the Merchantile Exchange. MIL was very clear she wasn’t a daycare provider.
Nina@NinaPanickssery
Genuinely curious—why don’t more people use their own parents/kid’s grandparents for childcare as opposed to daycare/preschool/nannies (which seem more common)? Is it common for boomer grandparents to show disinterest in their grandchildren?
English
@Miessy4 @King0243_PJC That’s what I was saying through sarcasm. 😊
English
@elspeth2341 @King0243_PJC You’re missing the point. Nobody is saying the tabloids are truthful. The tabloids paint one couple as pure and saintly, which isn’t true anymore than the articles about Harry and Meghan. None of it is believeable.
English
The absolute state of this. William and Kate "determined" to put "clear blue water" between them and the Yorks? Give us a bloody break.
They are happy enough to live in the same taxpayer funded golden circle, but the moment the Epstein stench gets too close to the "brand," they start acting like they don't know their own cousins.
It’s all so choreographed it’s nauseating.
The Mirror and their "royal experts" are nothing but PR lapdogs, spinning this cowardice as some sort of "strong leadership."
It’s not "taking the high road", it’s a desperate attempt to stay relevant while the whole institution rots from the inside.
Imagine being so obsessed with your "modern" image that you treat your family like brand contaminants, while still rinsing the public for every penny. Scrounging off the state while playing these pathetic PR games. Pure, unadulterated bollocks.

🚨 JUSTICE SERVED?
Two anti-ICE activists — Ashleigh Brown (CO) & Cynthia Raygoza (CA) — were convicted March 2 of felony stalking an ICE deportation officer.
They followed him home from work, livestreamed the pursuit on Instagram, shouted his neighborhood details to bystanders (“ICE lives here!”), and harassed his family — forcing the officer, his wife, and young kids (including a disabled child) to relocate to another county.
Sentencing is June 8, 2026. Each faces up to 5 years in federal prison.
Should they get the maximum sentence for endangering a federal officer and his family?
A. Yes — full prosecution
B. No

Dems should no longer vote for a SINGLE nominee. And make it clear that leading the senate will mean NO Supreme Court Justices, NO cabinet appointments, NO tyranny.
Shannon Watts@shannonrwatts
This is the problem. When it comes to empowering Trump’s nominees and agenda, Dems should start at no.

@benjic_parody So you are comparing going to church with children playing in the backyard. 🤦♀️
Curious .. did Harry and Meghan take the children to church?
English
Parading to church in front of an army of cameras, or an Easter egg hunt in the backyard? I know which one I'd choose. Archie and Lili look very happy and content. You don't need to worry about them. No shade to church, obviously. #HappyEaster
Jackie O'Sassis@Sassie_Lassie
@benjic_parody Sad that these two children have no cousins or friends to share the experience with. Parents are rich, right? Why isn't there a huge Easter egg hunt & party? Maybe a giant Easter Bunny??

How do you look at a 4/5 year old children, and the first thing on your mind is insults, attacks & vicious comments? To 4/5 years old kids? William & kate fans are mostly old people..grandmothers & grandfathers..so what's the problem here?

@TheLaurenChen It cost $2-$3 to make a vial of insulin. Pharmaceutical companies are charging up to $300 per vial.
Why should Bezos or anyone reward these companies? Make them lower their prices 🤬
English
Elizabeth Warren says that $7 billion from Jeff Bezos could fund free insulin for everyone plus free lunches for Texas school kids
The Somali community in Minnesota has stolen $9 billion from taxpayers since 2018
Don't say a word about any new taxes until you stop the fraud
Elizabeth Warren@SenWarren
Jeff Bezos has $222 billion. If he paid my wealth tax this year, we could fund insulin in America for everyone who needs it plus free school lunch for every kid in Texas—and have plenty of money left over. And Bezos would still have $215 billion dollars to spare.
