Wish I had said this.
I don’t want to connect my coffee machine to the wifi network. I don’t want to share the file with OneDrive. I don’t want to download an app to check my car’s fluid levels. I don’t want to scan a QR code to view the restaurant menu. I don’t want to let Google know my location before showing me the search results. I don’t want to include a Teams link on the calendar invite. I don’t want to pay 50 different monthly subscription fees for all my software. I don’t want to upgrade to TurboTax platinum plus audit protection. I don’t want to install the Webex plugin to join the meeting. I don’t want to share my car’s braking data with the actuaries at State Farm. I don’t want to text with your AI chatbot. I don’t want to download the Instagram app to look at your picture. I don’t want to type in my email address to view the content on your company’s website. I don’t want text messages with promo codes. I don’t want to leave your company a five-star Google review in exchange for the chance to win a $20 Starbucks gift card. I don’t want to join your exclusive community in the metaverse. I don’t want AI to help me write my comments on LinkedIn. I don’t even want to be on LinkedIn in the first place.
I just want to pay for a product one time (and only one time), know that it’s going to work flawlessly, press 0 to speak to an operator if I need help, and otherwise be left alone and treated with some small measure of human dignity, if that’s not too much to ask anymore.

Why does Donald Trump get to ruin the East Potomac Golf Course? It's not his course. He doesn't even own it. He doesn't own the land it sits on. Where is the fucking pushback???

REMINDER: Elon Musk is responsible for ⤵️
💔 Firing at least 58,500 federal workers
💔 Buying out another at least 76,000
💔 Shuttering USAID, which has already led to the preventable deaths of thousands around the world
💔 Permanently damaging the reputation of what it means to hold a federal job, thereby discouraging our country’s brightest minds to apply for them in the future
💔 Whatever other illegal activities he’s done over the last two years that we don’t know about… yet
I can’t wait for the day he’s held accountable — and taxed appropriately 👍🏾

it's been a week since Trump began targeting Ilhan Omar and, unlike the raid on Bolton last year which saw condemnations from NYT, WaPo, WSJ on Day 1, theres been zero editorials in these outlets condemning it. It also went totally unmentioned on all four Sunday shows yesterday.

We thought Mueller would expose him but Barr stepped in, or Jack Smith would indict him but Cannon stepped in, or Congress would impeach and convict him but McConnell stepped in, or the judiciary would stop him but SCOTUS stepped in. It’s up to us. #VoteBlueToSaveDemocracy

Donald Trump is suing California over our voting rolls and STILL trying to rig the rules in his favor.
This is not normal. And we cannot afford to sit back and pretend it is.

As long as I live, I will never, ever get over how losing twenty 6 and 7 year old children days before Christmas wasn't fucking end of guns in this country. We've failed our children.

For over 100 years, D.C. has had a public golf course. Trump wants to turn it into a P.G.A. course that we will pay for where only the elites can play. And that is how the rich fleece America. The removal of trees is because Trump sucks at golf & would be in the trees all day.

SORRY IF THIS OFFENDS STORE MANAGERS, BUT I'M DONE.
I just pulled $140 worth of groceries off the shelf, carried them across the store, scanned every item myself at a self-checkout kiosk, bagged every single item, and tapped my own card.
Then the machine screen flipped around and asked:
"Would you like to round up your total to donate to corporate charity?"
ABSOLUTELY NOT.
You eliminated 12 cashier jobs to cut corporate payroll, forced me to provide free manual labor for 15 minutes just to buy food, and now you want ME to fund your tax write-off?
If I'm doing the work of an employee, give me a 10% self-checkout discount at checkout.
Stop asking for tips and donations at kiosks where I did 100% of the work.

On the same day that CBS News senior legal correspondent Jan Crawford sent that Abdul El-Sayed tweet that she just deleted for violating CBS standards, she also tweeted her thanks to Andrew Fox -- who doesn't believe Palestinians exist -- for all of his efforts.
