Is there anyone out there that is mapping any delayed or cancelled federal payments ? Would be really interesting to see which towns and cities are going to be hit
Doug Mills is one of the greatest to ever do it.
This is America, 2025

What. A. Guy.

I actually hate the "lol the giant asteroid will deliver us from this suffering" jokes.
Are there any other people in the progressive movement who think that humans are actually fucking amazing?
I recently turned 60 years old.
