I’m no fan of libertarians, but I do appreciate the way they treated that fucking criminal at the rally.

@wendinoakland He doesn’t know what to do when he’s fucked with. Bullies never do, which is why EVERYONE should do it to him. People should boo him outside the courthouse, everywhere he goes. It will through him off.

@YakyuNightOwl Exactly! Even the people who don’t know how anything gets done know he’s bad business.

They have the nerve to price gouge the fast food that kills us.

@jawarajabbi Good for you for making that choice. They should lose everyone for taking advantage of people and lying.

@jawarajabbi I convinced my sister never to go to Dunkin Donuts again and to make coffee at home. She’s saved a lot of money. It adds up.

@jawarajabbi Very true. It makes me mad that we have all the power in this situation, yet use none of it.

@JoBlakely This is great! We all need to do this - to use our power
as consumers.

@timo21 They can’t fuck people over anymore because they drained them dry.🙄

@tofugolem Maybe this will send people into other food arenas. Hopefully they authored their own demise.

If you weren’t aware, WaPo just provided you with evidence that the public is being manipulated by those who own the media.

Glad I stopped paying for fucking WaPo.

@UrNotTheBossOfUs I want to get rid of the NYT as well, but it’s complicated with my family members.

Wonder how many other stories about fascists in the government major publications are sitting on for years or ever.

This man I live with falls asleep in the middle of the movies we’re watching. I know because he snores.

@Danetteb I hear you. And, good idea, I’m going to start turning the channel too. It’s ridiculous.

I think someone should devise a fun Buzzfeedesque quiz which asks fundamental questions in a sassy way that will tell you which party you need to vote for.

StillIRise1963,
@StillIRise1963@mastodon.world avatar

@HumToTable Seriously though. If real questions were asked, people might see themselves differently.

"Kirk argued in the 1950s that if the American middle class — then under half of Americans — ever grew too large and well paid, then such access to “wealth” would produce a social disaster. His followers warned that under such circumstances minorities would forget their “place” in society, women would demand equality with men, and young people would no longer respect their elders.”

@YakyuNightOwl Interesting. I’m an atheist, but people who believe should start here.

@YakyuNightOwl 😂 Of course not! I have a lot of respect for Rev. Barber. He’s a very good person. And, if one need a role model, he’s a good pick.

When we first moved here, 45 made it impossible for foreign spouses to work. So my wife went back to school and today, she’s graduating with her Bachelors in Psychology. Next stop: grad school! (Thankful for California’s excellent public universities system, and resident tuition!)

Sabrena felt she got an excellent education at SF State, and is looking forward to start the clinical psychology masters program to be your friendly multilingual culturally relevant therapist in a few years
