The amount of Amazon workers relying on SNAP and Medicaid has nearly tripled since 2020. — while Amazon’s annual profits soared by over 550%.
It’s the same story everywhere: corporate profits are at record highs, while workers’ share of the economy is at a record low.

We wouldn't have Buffy without Dolly. The producer was a friend, & was having trouble financing the pilot, so Dolly gave her the money. For this reason the logo to her production company appears at the end of every episode & Buffy's birthday is January 19th just like Dolly.

I sued to obtain the General Counsel Memo justifying ICE entering homes without judicial warrants. Turns out it’s not a memo at all - it’s an email - and they’ve wrongly redacted it.
