You don't have to hate the US to want CA out. You don't have to hate CA to want the US out. Is this marriage compatible, or is friend better?
We don't need or want a civil war, we want a peaceful divorce and to work together as friends after. Just because we can't live together doesn't mean we can't be good neighbors. #FreeCalifornia #Calexit inquirer.com/opinion/comment…

Apartment buildings save nature, tell a friend!

When LA is ready to rebuild, it should consider framing city blocks with stacked units, joined wall to wall, and built right up to the propriety line so that a courtyard block is formed.
Much of San Francisco was completely rebuilt - buildings and infrastructure - just 5 to 6 years after the 1906 earthquake and fire completely devastated vast swaths of the city. In 2024, the planning process for a single large apartment complex or water main can take as long.

Jewish refugees from Arab countries didn't receive a penny from the international community or the countries they were expelled from. Arab refugees from Israel received billions and now their grandchildren receive billions more. Why is that?

KNOXVILLE: “The city council approved a $27.6 million expansion of its police surveillance contract- just a month after Nashville rejected a similar proposal, reflecting a growing debate in Tennessee over balancing public safety and civil liberties.” tennesseelookout.com/2025/01…

VOUCHERS: “Not universal or conservative” Right-wing @TnCoNews1 folks are doing the math on @GovBillLee’s voucher scam and discovering the $ per voucher student is actually $25,000 (!!) when you include the $2K teacher bribe and 1 year hold harmless provision. 😬💰

Trump's "unconditional discharge" sentence doesn't mean he was "exonerated," contrary to what Rep. Lauren Boebert and others claimed. snopes.com/news/2025/01/10/t…

To drop a man in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean & tell him he is at liberty to walk ashore would not be more bitter irony than to place a man where all land is appropriated by others & tell him that he is a free man, at liberty to work for himself and enjoy his own earnings. HG
Scrolled down and saw an old post Went into the comment section to see if there's anything new Went to "see all comments" because the broken site still doesn't have it by default Saw my old comment was erased. So apparently Facebook has fully "disappeared" me. @ConsumerReports

Project 2025: "The next Administration must not cede such authority to non-partisan ‘experts,’ who pursue their own ends while engaging in groupthink” Purging experts in favor of loyalists would be a disaster for government ethics. citizensforethics.org/report…

California is home to 4.1 million small businesses—the most in the country. Through a new @CaliforniaOSBA program, more businesses in underserved communities across the state can access more resources to start up, grow, and create jobs.

Why am I a doomer? Because there is a reason why President Jimmy Carter was mocked and unceremoniously removed from office in 1980. He asked too much. Americans are spoiled, entitled, selfish little children. It only has gotten worse . . .
