"Dems must be more moderate to win over voters."

Okay lets go with that theory:
•A living wage is moderate—a poverty wage is extreme.
•Healthcare for all is moderate—denying care is extreme.
•Climate justice is moderate—denying climate science is extreme.

Reject GOP Framing. Vote GOP Out.

⚠ Meta will apparently to move to a "Pay for your Rights" model in the European Union!

EU users would then have to pay $ 168 a year if they don't want to give up their fundamental right to privacy on Facebook and Instagram. This move is inacceptable.

Corporate media is failing us over, and over, and over again.

Don't be fooled by the Republicans' intra-party "fighting" over the government shutdown. They're essentially all in on this.

Their goal(s)? Occam's Razor says:

1) Trigger a recession that -- because Big Journalism will publish whatever the Republicans claim, however untrue -- will be blamed on Democrats since they hold the White House.

2) Panic the Democrats (again with journalism's help) to give into massive cuts in programs that, you know, help people.

Just got my COVID booster and everything hurts. But what hurts worse was the pharmacist telling me that she had to turn away people WHO WANTED THE SHOT because their insurance providers wouldn't cover it (manufacturers are charging ~$120*).

If your insurance provider won't cover this (or if you don't have insurance) the CDC's Bridge Access Program can help! It covers no-cost COVID-19 vaccines until 12/31/24, info here: https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/programs/bridge/index.html

*EDITED 10/2: more like $190

I get Romney is retiring & doing his tell all book but—
1. We already knew all this. Him affirming it makes zero difference.
2. He's still in power. He can vote w/Dems & pass BBB, child tax credit, abolish filibuster, etc—but won't.

Talk is cheap. Let's see action for justice.

Kyle Rittenhouse is being sued by the estate of the mentally disturbed man Rittenhouse shot four times and killed.

Rittenhouse’s response:

“These lawsuits are making it harder and harder for me to move on with my life”

The amount of cope white men feel after doing something horrible could power a city

Do you know what else makes it hard to move on with your life?

Being murdered

Repeating this. I’m Muslim. I don’t feel attacked when people condemn Taliban b/c Taliban do not rep Muslims & I proudly take the lead in condemning Taliban terror.

If you’re MAGA white & feel personally attacked when we condemn white supremacy terror—you’re telling on yourself.

So now the deadbird site, formerly known as Twitter, is inviting developers to come back and "build what's next" with the much abused API.

Twitter (and Reddit)'s greed-infused API restrictions wrecked a project we (ASU News Co/Lab) were doing to help journalists send corrections down the same social media pathways as the original journalism.

The idea that we'd ever work with them again is a sick joke.
