BREAKING: The US now has more unemployed Americans than job openings for the first time since April 2021.
In July, the US had 7.24 million unemployed people and 7.18 million job openings.
Meanwhile…
60% of recent graduates are unemployed and cannot find jobs.
Tells you everything you need to know.
Expect the unemployment rate to rapidly rise from here on out.
Bill Cassidy's line of questioning was clever -- he pressed Kennedy on how he can praise Trump for Operation Warp Speed while at the same time denigrating vaccines.
Here's the entire exchange.
What is anarcho-syndicalism? - libertarian reformism, vanguardism or revolutionary unionism?
"This controversial article was a reflection of how the author saw things at the time. It was published in Black Flag in 1997. It's fair to say that his views have changed since then and events have moved on."

Surgery was a success! Thank you all so much for your prayers, well wishes, love, & support for Kai. He came through surgery well and is back home finally as of last night, relaxing & healing. The surgeon believes it should be the start to a better life ahead for him - hoping he should be able to walk, run, climb, & jump one day with 4 strong legs.
I appreciate you all so much - May you all and your families have a fantastic Thursday! 🐶🖤

Ordinary people with phone cameras, first aid kits, and some courage are patrolling the streets of #WashingtonDC at night and fucking life up for #ICE. No special skills or equipment needed, just the spine to resist.
Yes, it makes a big difference in ways the article discusses in full. We are fighting cowardly morons. Ordinary people just have to stand up-- we are stronger, and we are the great majority of the country.

Scotland's richest 2% now have more wealth than half the population combined.
At today's #FMQs we asked the First Minister why shooting estates owned by billionaires still pay no business rates.
We’re losing millions of pounds that could go towards our schools, libraries, and hospitals.
Aristocrats shouldn't get a blank cheque while the rest of us get austerity.

Eine Person hat angekündigt, am Freitag, 26. September 2025, von 16:00 bis 16:15 Uhr in #Marburg auf der Biegenstraße/Ecke Wolfstraße, Fahrtrichtung Innenstadt, eine Kunstaktion durchzuführen, mit der sie die Störungen durch die Klimakrise symbolisiert, auf die Gefahren durch fehlenden #Klimaschutz hinweist und zugleich von unserer Regierung fordert, ernsthafte Schutzmaßnahmen durch Klimaschutz zu ergreifen.
Ich unterstütze diese Aktion und werde an den stehenden Autos entlang laufen, um den wartenden Autofahrer:innen eine Stau-Info zu geben und zu erklären, warum sie warten müssen. Ich werde sie bitten, dass sie als Bürger:innen dieses Landes an ihre Regierung appellieren, ernsthafte und gerechte Klimaschutzmaßnahmen zu ergreifen.

If anything the protagonists seem to be stepping up the pace to maximise profits before any environmental sanctions come into play. However unlikely that seems rn.

in reply to Allan Bjerre Abbondio • • •@albjerre That is the very exact opposite of what we need do. It is cheap energy in the form of fossil fuels that has led to such incredible environmental destruction and devastation. There is nothing worse for our environment than cheap energy. What we do with the energy--by driving massive overconsumption and waste--is far more devastating than the energy itself.
And 'renewables' are neither renewable, clean or green--they are toxic and devastating.

in reply to Allan Bjerre Abbondio • • •@albjerre We're solving the wrong problem which makes the real problem much worse.
It's not an energy production problem.
It is an energy consumption problem. We consume vastly too much energy and materials and produce vastly too much toxic waste. All these "new" and more "efficient" energy solutions merely accelerate the harms.
Allan Bjerre Abbondio
in reply to Gerry McGovern • • •Gerry McGovern
in reply to Allan Bjerre Abbondio • • •@albjerre Nothing worse than "energy efficiency". Always leads to more total energy, materials and waste. No greater curse on this species than the word "efficiency".
Funny, the "realists" are those who tell us we can keep on growing and consuming on a finite planet. The naive and utopians are trying to stop the Sixth Great Mass extinction. You can't even question growth.
