@AlliFlowers I vote for the 90-year-old-me and my very own dark chocolate, wine, gelato, and persistent posts on Mastodon.

Someone posted a version of this to the Seattle Indies Discord server and I'm still tickled by it. Boost for visibility if you would, and no you don't get any more information about them than this...
Who would you trust more?

If you tax the churches and the 1%, you will have enough money to cover most of the major social benefits people in many European countries have.

Louisiana governor wants to punish university prof who slammed Trump voters:
“Beware the official who comes calling for censorship under the banner of free speech.”
@brainsmatter That sounds amazing. I'm a big fan of things like project based learning because it provides an alternative for assessment.
@brainsmatter Interesting thought. I'd like to see some combination.

In retaliation for any tariff from the USA, I believe Canada could impose a tariff until such time that the USA implements gun regulations and ends the massive gun flow across the border.

“If Trump wants Mexico to crack down on unauthorized migration through its territory,” Isacson told me, “then Biden has already gotten Mexico to do that to a greater extent than anyone has ever done before. He did it without tariffs.”
During the campaign, Trump simply pretended none of that was happening.
It’s one of MAGA’s biggest deceptions, and his latest scam carries it forward.
The very idea that Mexico must be bullied with tariffs into cracking down on migrants is designed to imply that it’s doing nothing right now—it’s taking advantage of us, Trump might say—and only his fearsome threats can force it into submission.
This massive swindle is getting lost in the coverage.
Much of it is focused on the potential consequences of tariffs, such as upending trade throughout the Americas and creating extensive hardship for U.S. industries.
That’s understandable, since the damage could be severe,
but you can read whole articles about this that don’t inform you that Mexico is already doing much of what Trump wants it to do
—or that this was apparently accomplished through diplomacy, without Trumpian bluster.

When they round up the immigrants and nothing gets better and in fact gets worse they’re not going to say oh hey our bad. They’re going to shift the blame to some new group to get rid of. That’s how this works.
@copter_chief I've been lucky. Never had a reaction to anything but the 2nd Shingles dose. And I slept the entire week of chemo every time.

Trump has nominated someone to run our Navy who has never worn a uniform. His only qualification is that Phelan was a Trump campaign megadonor.
He reportedly donated more than $800,000 to Trump’s joint fundraising committee in April.

Trump picks Jay Bhattacharya, who backed COVID herd immunity, to lead National Institutes of Health
This makes sense considering that there are so many sheep...
I was really hoping Howdy-Doody got the job though..
We are so F***ED 😡
@Beachbum I’d go so far as to just say entitled. They’re not always men, and sometimes not white. @TomWellborn

Randy Fine, a GOP candidate in Florida, threatened Muslim Reps. Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib on social media, suggesting they "leave before I get there" and using the hashtag “#BombsAway.” This follows ongoing criticism of both lawmakers for their views on Israel and Palestine.
