While students and faculty, under the guise of their own and the university’s safety, will no longer be allowed to access TikTok via university WiFi they can still carry a firearm on campus and in classrooms. rollingstone.com/politics/poli

As republicans threaten to blow up the economy to destroy Social Security and Medicare, do not forget: the debt ceiling fight isn’t a both sides crisis it’s a republican crisis.

@davichk@mastodon.social @tofugolem I thought that might be the case, but always wise to check.

Tomorrow is my husband’s 70th birthday. Surprises are hard when it’s just the two of you and you’re both retired. So he got his birthday treat today.

A truly massive strike is looming at UPS.

Contract negotiations between UPS and the Teamsters Union begin soon, and workers are fed up.

350,000 @Teamsters@twitter.com work at UPS. If the union goes on strike, it would be the largest strike against a single business in the nation’s history.

@RevEricBurrowsStone Just because it’s what you desire, doesn’t mean it’s good or right. Putin desires Ukraine and the GOP desire an end to social security and Medicare. I desire none of you trying to share your desires with me.

@Muppetk Of course a poodle crossbreed. Poodles are the sluts of the canine kingdom.

@tofugolem @davichk@mastodon.social @mguhlin What is a communication country? Who is Hitchens? Sounds like something I might like to read.

@tofugolem @mguhlin Think of mankind as a single body so that in the deep past they didn’t know any better - the earth is flat. Now we know better because science has proven it.

@davichk@mastodon.social @tofugolem @mguhlin Couldn’t have said that better myself. Thank you.

@mguhlin @tofugolem As I said, the critical thinkers either sold out or were run out.

@mguhlin @tofugolem At some point in our history, there were critical thinkers. They either sold out or were run out. I’ve never been convinced that telling children not to question their elders was the smart move.

@AlliFlowers
As much as I speak out against religion, the focus should really be on the sloppy thinking that makes religion possible. At least in my opinion.

@tofugolem I don’t care what religion you choose. Country western is not a form of music.

@tofugolem Maybe it’s just organized religion then. Why do we need a community for Atheists? That’s kind of self-defeating.

I still believe that having dogma pounded into you makes you feel like you don’t need to think for yourself.
