A comforting blue floral pattern for today's drawing. Just getting my brain relaxed.

This is the ultimate married couple
you may not like it but this is what peak performance looks like

From 1940s-1980, the wealthiest paid 70-94% marginal tax rates. Zero of them went broke from taxation. Zero of them left the USA. All remained exceedingly wealthy, manufacturing boomed, AND we had the strongest middle class growth in US History.

Let's do that again. #TaxTheRich

@thor I have followed you since I first arrived. Consider this a like for every single one of your posts.

"What these numbers mean is that while a vocal and uncompromising subset of the Republican Party base may want a society like that in “The Handmaid’s Tale,” in which women have no agency and no autonomy over their bodies, most Americans do not want to live in such a cruel dystopia."

“As per Musk, the apparent big catch is that verified users only make money off of other verified users, creating what amounts to the combination of an MLM and conspiratorial echo chamber.”

“And such is the undergirding framework of Twitter: the few profiting most from Musk’s takeover ambling to enchant the many into buying into the whole scheme too. A scheme whose promises grow bigger the more that people join, but whose actual rewards remain largely at the top. Twitter, indeed, is an MLM.”

I told Peacan I was on the phone. She is not a happy camper. #CatsOfMastodon

This Forester's Friday Fenster is just up the road at St. Conan's Kirk, Loch Awe, Argyll, Scotland. Fascinating tale of a man's passion / obsession - weird mixter-maxter of architectural styles, surprisingly recent to the uninitiated #FensterFreitag, #FensterFriday #WindowFriday

#Threads is not federating with #Mastodon. Not anytime soon, maybe not ever.

In case you missed the #Meta inside information from the Verge's Alex Heath: "Re: ActivityPub integration, it's still a priority for Threads but a "long" way out."(https://mastodon.social/@alexeheath/110713788758597963)

This whole federating with Threads thing has never made any sense and now we see it is very likely they have just been playing us the whole time. Let's stop falling for this nonsense and get back to building open social media.

#IndictJaredKushner
In 2016 Kushner & Kislyak wanted to set up a secret communications channel between Trump’s transition team & the Kremlin, using Russian diplomatic facilities?
He should have been arrested

This is one of my absolute stunners. I have it also printed on my wall here. Everything was perfect that day. Truly one of the best things that could happen to me

I'm sorry, but I'll post it repeatedly here because I just love it sooo much.

I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. And I can just recommend printing it! ;-)

Please post a pic of your favorite lighthouse with some backstory as well as a description of it's location. Thank you.

Really insightful and balanced piece by @nberlat on the genocidal nature of anti-trans bigotry. He explains the current pulse really well and how the wave of hate is linked to fascism.

Note: you don’t need to watch the vile embedded video, just read the piece.
