The Trump Administration is destroying HHS and destroying pretty much all medical research. There will be millions who will needlessly die. Research on ailments such as cancer and Alzheimer’s will be set back decades. It will take generatio

Speaking as a former wait person… It is more efficient this way. Often times the wait person may have multiple tables sat at the same time. This way they can greet each table shortly after sitting (you don’t want to know how people react if

I’m 58 and use my Apple Watch for pretty much everything. I only carry a single card for those rare times where I enter an establishment that does not have a chip reader. I love it not only for convenience, but for the security as well. I d

I have a much different experience on Twitter. It has a much higher tolerance for racism, misogyny, gay/transphobia, and wild conspiracies. It got much worse after the election and I finally bailed on it after the inauguration. I have

The people pushing back the most in this are commuters from NJ who can afford the high cost of parking.

It’s up to us in the US to stop it. No one else well. Don’t give into despair! We have power; we just need to use it. At a bare minimum, call your congress people at least once a week. It does make a difference. Here are some links that may

That’s lovely. So, where is your evidence that Democratic politicians are cheering on the murder of Cybertruck owners? That was the claim you made in your flagged post. Time to put up or shut-up.

Carbon credits might become a real problem for Tesla. They have all those credits to sell to other companies due to their own car sales. Fewer car sales, means fewer carbon credits, resulting in lower revenues.

Elon Musk’s power is based on his wealth. A bankrupt Elon Musk will no longer be able to influence politics in several nations. He won’t be able to buy the US presidency. He won’t be able to threaten primaries against US representatives. He

I want to make one correction here: of the 5 people Musk claimed are funding anti-Tesla protests, only 3 of them are Jewish. The other two are dead. I sincerely regret this error.

I did not make a claim; I asked a simple question: is the Twitter outage a result of a cyberattack or is it due to a technical failure? I asked this question for a few reasons: - Elon Musk is an inveterate liar. - things often fail at his c

Elon Musk says a lot of things. Is it really a cyberattack, or is the site just experiencing an outage due to an over-worked and understaffed team who were told to move fast and break things?

Even by that measure, it wasn’t a landslide. Trump’s electoral vote margin of victory is ranked at 44 out of 60 elections. And it’s not like he crushed it compared to Biden. Trump was at 57.99% in 2024 and Biden was at 56.88% in 2020 (47th

Trump and Musk plan to destroy our government institutions and sell off the parts and your advice is to just accept it and come up with a plan for what to do in the aftermath? As someone who actually lives here, I think it is very appropri

He did not win by a landslide. He didn’t even get a majority of the vote. The final tally was 49.8% - 48.3%. A victory of 1.5% is not a landslide. Further, Trump spent a huge amount of his campaign denying any association with project 2025.
