Reporting of the latest UBI test programme is ignoring the key finding, obvious to anyone who knows low income people, that their first impulse was to spread the wealth to others.
This thinking is so alien to economists and financial types that they barely discuss it. openresearchlab.org/findings/k

Imagine the collective MAGA head explosion over Second Gentleman Chasten.

There are new transparent solar panels that convert only the frequencies of light that plants don't use and let the one they do use through, so you get electricity from your greenhouses!

The pink panels behind Farmer Dave visible in this video are prototypes he's trialing for, uh, UC Santa Cruz? I forget. He talks about them in another video, I'm looking for it...

"President #Biden has taken more action on #ClimateChange than any president in historyβ€”though many voters don’t realize that.

And in some cases, when Biden has been criticized for not doing enough, it’s because he’s been blocked."

A Harris White House would continue this work, and accelerate it.
"Trump, on the other hand, has strong ties to the fossil fuel industry."

Griffin:

Vote .org just announced a nearly 700% increase in daily voter registrations β€” more than 38,500 new registrations β€” in the 48-hour period following President Biden's announcement.

This figure marks the single largest number of voter registrations over a 48-hour period during the 2024 cycle.

πŸ‘‰πŸΌπŸ‘‰πŸΌYounger voters between 18 and 34 accounted for 83% of new registrations.

Kamala Harris captures all three dimensions of what is the Democratic party; a party of diversity, a party for women, a party for the youth (and thus the future)

Madam President Kamala Harris represents those three - and better than just represents, has FOUGHT for all three her whole life

"What have we been saying?

"That JD Vance is an unlikeable pile of human butthair and mendacity, a fundamentally unrelatable, off-putting, and repellent man who’s likely to bring nothing to the Trump/Vance ticket? That normal people see him and they’re like EW MORE LIKE HILLBILLY SMELLEGY?"

Y'all this race was gonna be ok anyway, but it's starting to be *fun*.

The only thing holding me back from using this shoebox to create a diorama is that I’m no longer in elementary school so I won't get the satisfaction of marching it into class to show off my madd diorama skillz.

I am continuing my efforts to contact keep people in digital, outreach, and elsewhere in the Harris campaign. Eventually, I will get through, I’m sure. I’d like to have a list ready of qualified volunteers who could assist the campaign in understanding Mastodon and the Fediverse, setting up and maintaining an instance, and so forth. If you are interested in being contacted should an opportunity arise, please provide your details here drive.proton.me/urls/XDDXZK4XN. 2/ #MastodonForHarris

Dear white people, many racists are going to say horribly racist things. Put them on the racist list for future shunning. YOU CAN’T FORGET WHO DOES WHAT. YOU CAN’T ACCEPT THEM BACK INTO YOUR COMMUNITY.

@roberthurdman seriously, we need to claw back the tax breaks the orange stain gifted the filthy rich, at the expense of the rapidly shrinking middle class. Perhaps claw back a few more, earlier tax breaks.

@cindyweinstein

Stuff like this helps make clear that these folks are pro-Israel, not pro-Jews.

@ScottSoCal @GottaLaff Math isn’t their strong suit, since most of them came up by cheating.
