CNBC is calling it the Tesla Chain Saw Massacre. 🤣
Yo , no one is picking up your Senate phone and you don’t even have a voicemail. Vote no on cloture and the spending bill or I will do whatever it takes to make sure the next Senator from Illinois has basic constituent services set up during business hours.
Perhaps the most depressing part about the last couple of months is that every awful shitty thing that’s happening to this country is self-induced. People asked for this. None of it had to happen.
i think shutting the government down is preferably to nullifying article i of the constitution
The weeks of performative “resistance” from those in my party were limited to undignified antics. Voting to shut the government down will punish millions or risk a recession. I disagree with many points in the CR, but I will never vote to shut our government down.

Guys who quote the S&P 500 instead of the Dow
I write my foraging book every morning before work. Sometimes all I need is to write one good sentence to be satisfied. This morning’s sentence was “You live, you die, you do some stuff in between. If you want to live the fullest life I recommend hunting mushrooms be some of that stuff.”
Honestly this might be *the* question of our time. (great thread, btw)
The real question "Can we be bothered?"
Section 230 and the First Amendment protect free speech online from anyone who wants to undermine it. If you're unfamiliar with the law or need to learn why it's so important, here's a good explainer:
One of the best and highest uses of a government is to provide goods that are uneconomical to be produced locally but have massive surplus if produced at all. Particularly notable examples include: * disease and weather forecasting * basic science, esp in energy/health * natural disaster insurance
Thank you for making me the richest man on Blue Sky! Your BluBucks have been pouring in!
bsky is wild. You post a picture of a tree and say "this is a nice tree" and someone will reply "TRUMP WOULD HATE THAT TREE BECAUSE HE'S A CUNT"
