I’m so bored with people who demand that Biden just “do stuff” without any interest in understanding how government works. The President is not a king.

@PacificNic @bryan_edward from the article:

“One person was injured in the event, U.S. Army Garrison – Kwajalein Atoll spokesperson, Mike Brantley told Marianas Variety Sunday. The injured was said to be in stable condition and was being treated for their injuries at a local clinic on Kwajalein Island. No deaths were reported.”

@evan is this hypothetical or are there already accounts that you have to pay to follow?

@baldur all of this is both common sense and has been known for decades.

Personally, I was most productive between 6-9pm because I could finally work uninterrupted after a day of meetings and helping others. But the overall hours were unsustainable over the long term.

This is somehow not satire.

“At the time, Musk made it clear that he bought Twitter for humanity, not to make money. Cynics doubted his ability to make Twitter profitable, but millions of X users embraced his new subscription model and the promise of creator generated revenue streams.”

@thomasfuchs it feels like a scam even though the company isn’t getting a tax deduction. It’s their ability to use the funds raised as PR to cover for their business practices.

@GottaLaff @Nonya_Bidniss and of course there’s an entire “left” effort to get people to vote 3rd party or not at all. Done in bad faith and supported by useful idiots

@metaphorology @abolisyonista @patrickgillam are bad things bad? Yes

@atomicpoet @socialmedianews staying on #twitter is a choice, and increasingly indefensible

“Americans are now dying younger on average than they used to…

One in 25 American 5-year-olds now won’t live to see 40, a death rate about four times as high as in other wealthy nations...

Firearms account for almost half of the increase. Homicide accounted for 6.9 percent of deaths among that group, defined as those 19 years old or younger, and suicide accounted for 6.8 percent…”
