@TonyStark I really wished #billionaires would be #conscripted as #firefighters, but I can tell you why #conscription is a shitty idea espechally with #firefighting, because one cannot rely on forcibly recruited personnel!

  • As a former firefighter I can attest you that this is the reason why #Musk would not even pass basic training: He'd be fired for being an antisocial asshole that noone wants to trust their life with...

#Biden's farewell speech to the military: "Let me close with a final request. I say it not as your president or commander in chief. I say it as a man who spent 50 years of his life serving his country in a different way. Remember your oath."👈🏼

Can we just take a moment to appreciate that Mark Zuckerberg has managed to shit in his own bed so badly in the past few weeks that fediverse image app Pixelfed, made by one person in their spare time, has managed to rise far above Instagram on the App Store?

We now know UnitedHealth—under Brian Thompson—illegally overcharged cancer patients for meds by more than 1000%.

What we don't know is how many cancer patients died or were financially ruined as a result?

What we demand to know is why that act isn't deemed corporate murder & where are the arrests?

The last documentary in our series about understanding the Israel/Palestine/Gaza situation: Life and Death in Gaza - videoneat.com/documentaries/26…

Surreal documentary that at times feels like it is a movie because such things should not happen in the real world....the people in Gaza have been massacred by the Israeli military. Yes what Hamas did was terrible, but the same way that we cannot find an excuse for Hamas' terrorism, we cannot find an excuse for Israel's terrorism.

Everyone should watch this documentary.

The Republican nominee for Defense Secretary, Pete Hegseth, is a complex and multifaceted man. Not only is he a rapist white nationalist, he's also an incompetent alcoholic idiot! Great job, Republicans!

This is how the #GOP treats Pete Hegseth's history of infidelity, spousal abuse, and rape.

Republicans do not care if Pete Hegseth is actually qualified to be Secretary of Defense (He is most definitely NOT), they will approve his nomination because Trump told them to, and they're afraid of Trump.

This is how #Tyranny takes over the USA. The GOP helps usher it in.

Markwayne Mullin says he'd be in prison if his wife didn't love him and says she's had to forgive him more than once. He then asks Hegseth to detail a reason he loves his wife. Mullin has to remind him to mention his kids 😬
