SORRY IF THIS OFFENDS GROCERY EXECUTIVES, BUT I’M DONE. I just pulled a $4.99 box of cereal off the shelf, brought it to the register, and watched the scanner ring it up as $7.49. When I told the cashier, she said: "Oh, that’s the digital coupon price. You have to download our store app, create an account, search for the item, and clip the digital coupon before scanning." ABSOLUTELY NOT. You inflated the shelf price by 50%, locked the normal price behind an app, and forced me to hand over my personal phone data and email just to pay the actual retail value of a box of food? Stop hiding basic shelf pricing behind data-harvesting apps.

You can’t make this up: Up until a few months ago, the new White House Press Secretary Katie Zacharia was on the advisory board of an organization that calls for women who have abortions to be executed “in the public square,” and for pro-choice Americans to lose their right to hold public office.

Imagine MAGA being the “Party That Protects Women”… Then beats the shit out of a woman, At a Trump rally on National Television… While the President encourages the beating, While making fun of the woman’s weight… And MAGA cheers “USA…USA…” How The Fuck Did We Get Here.

American Dictator creators, William Palma (13), Adam Palma (15), Kiara Palma (17) and Lauren Ip (14), who designed the board’s graphics, are donating part of the proceeds to a local food bank. These are the future leaders we need.❤️ Video: CBC News
A couple of Canadian kids created a Maga Monopoly game and called it "American Dictator." The cards include "Quiet Piggy" (only you can speak), and a redacted card (no one knows what it says). You can buy a Supreme Court Justice. They donate proceeds to local food banks. 🇨🇦❤️‍

Holy flipping cow. Symptomatic NHS staff *looking after immunocompromised patients* no longer need to test for Covid. Absolutely astonishing. This will kill patients. Beyond horrifying.

The British Medical Association is calling for a ban on advanced practitioners being used on doctors’ rotas, as it publishes a dossier of accounts of when patient safety has been put at risk. buff.ly/gyn0vGq

Steven Spielberg wears a respirator while being interviewed outside the opening of the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art on September 19, 2026. Respiratory protection doesn’t have to be unusual or disruptive. For many people, it remains a simple, everyday way to reduce the risk of airborne infection and help protect their health and the health of those around them. #MaskUp #COVID19 #COVID #PublicHealth #InfectionPrevention

This is the biggest lie you’ve been told. You’re told the West is falling apart because of migrants and minorities. But who closed the factories? Crashed the banks? Launched the wars? Here’s what really happened.

The only people who want to work to “local scope” and “self regulation” in healthcare are those who want to work as per their hubris, not their knowledge It’s to avoid scrutiny while satisfying their hubris Whatever be the cost to the public There’s a reason I work to a national scope and @gmcuk regulation To work to my training, a defined scope and regulation. Safety first Hubris later You can play as much mental gymnastics and word salad as you want. Ignoring or resisting a drive to a national scope and fudging regulation? Is to satisfy hubris. Simple to be honest.

Listening to discussion of denial of bathroom access to a primary school child. In a recorded clip, Minister Dixon said, "...we have to check if the rules were broken..." DJM's comment: "No, minister, you have to check if the rules make sense." I agree, @djmillerJA. #Jamaica

What's far more common than plagiarism in academia is white profs getting into their positions on the backs of exploiting and stealing ideas & work from students, postdocs, asst profs - many of who are POCs, because this is often the way the only way they will be allowed to stay
