Reminder: The Bill of Rights (where we get the 1st Amendment) applies to all persons living and residing in the United States. Not just citizens.

🤔 Maybe building a town around a single industry isn't a good idea.

BREAKING: Sadness and heartbreak as completely predictable and preventable situation slowly unfolds over decades.

It's how Republicans (not just Trump) consider someone qualified.

Conservatives are concerned that the miniscule chance of fluoride reducing children's IQ is enough to cause children to grow up to be conservatives.

I think it's part of a, "stabilizer diet"

I highly recommend not eating your keyboard. The most commonly-used macros probably taste like finger cheese.

Forget small phones... I want bigger phones! Why do we keep making phones that appear to be made to appease people with small pockets‽

Bigger screens are better! Give me a great big tri-fold phone with a week-long battery (as long as it's under 10lbs it won't be a problem!). Actually, fuck that: Where are our backpack phones? We used to have them in WW2 and now we have the technology to make them even better!

I want the power to unfurl my monster phone to turn it into a portable 3-monitor gaming rig. Make it run regular Linux too so I can actually automate things and decide where I want to store my stuff (not in Google or Apple's clouds!).

Actually, the remedy Social Security needs is to remove the income cap. Elon Musk pays just as much into social security as I do: ~$10,900

It's because there's a cap: $176,100. Once you earn that much in income you don't have to pay into social security anymore! It's ridiculous!

Basically, the richer you are, the less you're paying into social security as a percentage of your income. It's the opposite of progressive (just like HSAs).

Remove the cap and people like Musk will be paying millions into Social Security every year. It'll make it solvent again in no time at all.
