I am officially deceased after reading this Wall Street deli owner's response to the question of whether he asks his customers for stock tips:

Hunter Biden's legal team is on the offensive, demanding state & federal investigations into the dissemination of material from his laptop, & threatening a defamation lawsuit against Fox's Tucker Carlson for allegedly failing to correct false statements.

Another result of gridlock in DC
We can't have nice things bc fossil fuel co's are concerned how their pollution makes them look

@PeggyJoan I think I'm going to go with an outfit consisting of:

A skirt precisely one inch above the knee, in the loudest pattern I can find. A high-necked T-shirt with no writing, possibly with holes in - this does not seem to be specified. Men's shoes, with socks. Neon ones preferably. Plus leggings worn as a hat.

I know that could be anywhere, but it looks like the neighborhood down around Liberty Park, in SLC.

When I get impatient that my doggo wants to sniff everything on our walks, I remember that this is his social media and he’s just doomscrolling.

Newsom did the same thing when TFG stopped all funding for NASA climate science projects. California is building its own climate science satellite, partnering with JPL.

The 117th Congress was Democratic with President Biden signing bills into law. Congress was able to pass a $35 monthly cap on insulin for Medicare patients and some other limited price controls on prescription drugs, but it doesn't help privately insured or uninsured patients. Unfortunately, there's still the filibuster and not even all 50 Senate Democrats (we have 51 now :fetterman2:​) are fully on board with all pharma bills. (The Manchin family has pharma involvement, of course.)

Here comes California to the rescue with a plan to make its own insulin. Insulin is cheap to make but the three big pharma companies keep finding ways to extend their patents by creating new delivery methods. California plans to hire state employees to make the insulin and sell it at cost. (Good state jobs!). California can then sell it to other states. There's precedent; Massachusetts makes its own vaccines.

Pharma claims it likes competition but wait for the lawsuits.

It sure sounds like Donald just admitted to the whole Stormy Daniels scandal in his latest bizarre social media post.
And Stormy wasted no time in mocking him for it. πŸ™Œ

The farmers who have chickens are questioning them, too. Seems production isn't down, and the prices they're getting are the same, but this mysterious shortage that's causing ridiculous prices goes on.

I just saw a chicken toting a Chanel bag so I’m starting to question these egg prices

Good morning, the empty bookshelves in Florida schools keep my head busy, since I'm a teacher with a library in my classroom in Berlin myself. That's a history lesson in front of our very eyes and exactly how fascism started in Germany. Books were banned and then burnt and everyone said, well, I can't do anything, I don't want to loose my job, I don't like it, but... Many little steps were made by many little people who didn't stand up against a new little rule. You know how this ends.

I work for a VERY conservative (old definition) company, and my boss showed up to work in a mesh blouse and a black lace bra. I started looking for the reality TV cameras.

From a strictly mathematical perspective, perhaps, but that isn't how it works in the world, with humans, when we're talking about opportunity and quality of life.
