Meet Mark Robinson
Republican Lt. governor of North Carolina
Anti LGBTQIA+
Anti Muslim
Antisemitic
And anti MLK
He calls the civil rights leader mediocre and “a communist”
From a 2017 Facebook post: "Tomorrow I will do my service to the community by going to work to continue to support myself and my family so I'm not a leach on said community"
Trump hailed him as “better than Dr. Martin Luther King”
Let’s bet he works on Christmas due to what he thinks of woke Jesus.

An important announcement from ERCOT, your Texas power grid operator.:
We expect a power deficit Monday morning. We've got two choices.
We could interconnect Texas to the national grids so we have sufficient capacity in times of need.
Or we could stay disconnected, avoid federal regulation, and make you worthless peons bear the brunt.
We pick "B". Please conserve power Monday morning. Protect our grid, and protect the profits of Texas power generation companies.

RUSSIA SHOT DOWN!
The Armed Forces of Ukraine shot down two Russian planes over the Sea of Azov, — People's Deputy of Ukraine Mysiahin
It happened an hour and a half ago. A-50 was shot down, and IL-22 was damaged, however, it was in the air and tried to reach the nearest airfield, but disappeared from the radar, after the descent, in the Kerch area
I'm waiting for official confirmation of the information

I've stopped caring about new tech and become more political because in general we have sufficient technology to make everyone's lives better.
The problem isn't that we don't have enough or good enough technology. The problem is that the people in power aren't interested in making everyone's lives better.

Adam Serwer made an interesting observation. I'm paraphrasing.
Under #Trump, the media kept repeating that the economy was good in order to show that they were not biased. They manufactured the "economy good" argument to prove they weren't anti Trump.
Under #Biden, when the economy is doing well and positive economic figures are published, it always comes with caveats. This time, the media want to prove they're not pro Biden.
Media coverage should be based on facts, not their self-image

@TonyStark Best of Biden: Joe keeps on filling the wallets of low- & medium income Americans, not only putting his own first.
President Biden vowed to make America(ns) work, and he kept his promise - without ever thinking of building a single imaginary "Biden Tower" in Putin's Moscow.
Like Trump did.

Your yearly reminder that ‘layoff season’ is an American invention that infected the rest of the world.
Layoffs cost a company 35% more than retaining a core staff over 3 years.
The only purpose is for inflating investor reports.
Layoffs in tech immediately degrade the product, reduce security, create safeguarding issues, and inevitably destabilise the future of a given product.

Mostly reclusive and carrying slightly damaged goods. A survivor by some accounts. Definitely in need of much therapy. ;)
Staunchly anti-fascist
Bear in mind that, while I may "like" your "toot", about a person, event or particular topic, if it links to the "bird-site" I will no longer boost and inadvertently contribute to their grift. Everyone has a choice and a part to play when crimes go unpunished.
