❝ Trump just issued a last-minute warning to Virginians that if they vote YES on the redistricting referendum tomorrow, he will lose power:

“If the Democrats get additional seats, they’re going to be making changes at the federal level.”

okay Vee, you win today’s #AltTxt #yaddayadda with this magnificent TL;DR of USians’ ignorance of politics:

❝ What American people think the political spectrum is:

Far Right: Trump
Right: Bush
Center: Bloomberg
Left: Warren
Far Left: Sanders

What actually is

Far Right: Trump, Bush, Bloomberg
Right: Warren
Center: Sanders
Left/Far-Left: anybody here gets killed by the CIA ❞

ps: this is why #California #Democrats need to nuke into oblivion billionaire parasite and Bloomberg buddie, Tom Steyer

today’s #altTxt #yaddayadda because this is how we used to do #economics before Reaganism:

❝ You are being lied to.

Today I present to you the only inflation index that matters. The Taco
Bell chicken quesadilla inflation index.

2001 Chicken quesadilla: $1.89
2026 Chicken guesadilla: $6.19

This is a total inflation of ~327% or an annualized amount of just over
6%/yr.

Don’t let the lizard people in the government trick you into thinking
inflation is 2-3% per year...plan accordingly. ❞

today’s #AltTxt #yaddayadda brought to you by the Hampton Institute, because #ecocide is #genocide :

❝ The rich can no longer be tamed. They are way too far gone in their own worlds, too entitled, too convinced they've "earned" (and therefore *deserve* their wealth) & would rather burn the entire planet & kill off 5 billion people than give up that wealth. We need to realize this. ❞

today's #AltTxt #AltText #yaddayadda isn’t about California but it is totally about the race for the job of #California governor.

❝ IMAGINE HAVING
ENOUGH MONEY
TO END WORLD HUNGER

BUT INSTEAD YOU FOCUS
ON ENDING DEMOCRACY SO
YOUR TAXES WON'T GO UP.

BILLIONAIRES ARE
AN ABOMINATION ❞

so, remember, don't let the fascist-lite democrats throw the elections to the billionaires:

🗣 VOTE IN THE PRIMARIES

don't let Steyer, Ellison, Bezos, Musk take control of California.

i have been known to stick an image in a post to use the #AltTxt as extra writing space because, why not?

and then there’s my #yaddayadda when in add it in a quote post because i think the image is important.

gotta say this again: get the fucking OCR app at F-Droid. it’s sooooo convenient. this is the fediverse. just do it.

today’s #AltTxt #yaddayadda is a tweet by a Joni Askola, urging people to see an email #JeffreyEpstein sent to a Thorbjon Jagland. the pedophile trafficker asks to meet Putin’s foreign affairs crony, Sergey Lavrov, to dish on Trump:

❝ The media is still missing the biggest story in the Epstein emails.

The emails show Epstein helped Russia blackmail Donald Trump. He was advising Putin's circle on how to control the US President.

Trump is compromised.

We need to make sure everyone sees this ❞

today’s #altTxt #yaddayadda on how bad americans are at #labor #rights:

❝ The whole concept of "sick days" is idolatrous capitalism. When we started work in The Netherlands, we asked HR how many sick days we get. After a brief confused look, the reply - all of them. When you are sick, you stay home. When you are well, you work.

Dutch law (translated) reads "If you own a company in the Netherlands and one of your employees becomes ill, you must go on paying them for a maximum of two years." ❞

today’s #AltTxt #yaddayadda has a picture of a soldier resting somewhere where desertification turned dirt to stone.

the photo is from their perspective. you only get to see their legs. that’s how we know they are resting: we see their helmet between their legs and their rifle leaning against one of them. underneath the photo we have a message:

NEVER, EVER FORGET WHO YOU ARE FIGHTING FOR!

right smack in the middle of his helmet we see a photo of #JeffreyEpstein

this is a post about #Iran

this is the kind of meme that pisses me off for it’s lack of one huge piece of evidence: DATE

today's #AltTxt #yaddayadda is about the historic FEBRUARY 12 2026 #GeneralStrike in #India
https://peoplesdispatch.org/2026/02/20/anatomy-of-a-general-strike-how-workers-in-the-indian-state-of-karnataka-shut-down-production/

❝ 300 million workers just shut down India.

The largest strike in human history, and most of the Western media barely whispered it. That silence is complicity in Modi’s war on workers’ rights.

India’s general strike is the future that the billionaires and ruling class fears most ❞ 🧵…
