Wasn't this the whole reason for Elon Musk buying Twitter?

The writing was on the wall that Tesla was taking major hits, and Elon wanted to take his money out without signaling to the market that there was anything wrong, and needed a place to put the money (i.e. twitter)

I kinda love that it ruined Chris Matthews' career though, making him look absurd by calling Bernie's winning streak a "NAZI INVASION"...smdh

I remember hearing in the beginning of Israel's bombing that Israel's strategy is actually not even to fully demolish a building but rather to partially/mostly destroy it. This is because then Gaza has to pay to fully tear down the building before building it back up. Whereas if they fully demolished it, it'd only be the buildup cost for them.

Truly some of the most evil people that have lived isntrael

Someone on Hasan's stream said their family members live in the path of the hurricane and there are wild amounts of misinfo flying around. People saying "don't take the $750 b/c FEMA could repossess your home if you don't pay it back" and people generally downplaying the seriousness of Milton

I don't follow them and don't know if there has been any self-reflection since 2020. But if there hasn't I would have thought they'd been so embarrassed by now they'd have logged off

 

Want to learn more about what has worked elsewhere in helping to organize for this community. There are so many non-profits/NGO's devoted to assisting our unhoused neighbors but so many of them seem largely uneffective/toothless (for many reasons).

Looking to see if there are any good reads out there about lifting up this community. thanks!

My partner has all the right political instincts and really wants to bolster their knowledge of the systems of socialism/communism and the ideologies therein.

I was initially thinking of recommending Blackshirts and Reds by Parenti as that was an entry point for me to shed any remaining lib tendencies I had.

Would love to hear what y'all would recommend!

Wanted to get a thread together to highlight aid groups that can be donated to to help Palestinian aid

~~That's the only one I know of but leaning on y'all for help to spread the word. Lots of medical aid needed so let's direct our energy toward those helping in Gaza~~

Keep em coming and I'll try to continue to add them here
