I really need to see this now.

I’m not finding anything about a billionaire family or his potential $100 million inheritance. While there’s no denying he grew up in a wealthy family, the online speculation articles are mostly guessing at the value of his grandmother’s estate - which would be divided among 10 children. It all looks like guesswork.

Any legit sources for Luigi Mangione’s net worth?

Pinkerton stayed with the St Louis PD until he was “forced out” in 2021. He posted on Facebook:

“For all you mother f—— at the St. Louis Police Department,” one post began last November, “especially the Internal Affairs Division, you can all kiss my a— for condemning me and pushing me out of my decorated career and losing my ability to retire with the benefits I wanted, all because I exposed the corruption behind the prosecution of Derek Chauvin.”

Don’t worry, he immediately bounced to a police department in a nearby town, where he remains on active duty.

Disgusting but true. Most voters won’t look at policy; they just want the illusion of a “strong man”.

Is it my imagination, or did I see a wanted poster in Manhattan for Darren Woods, the chairman and CEO of ExxonMobil?

I have a relative who works there, so I was given a more complete picture of this shitshow right after it happened.

The health district doctor who pushed for this, John Tribble MD, is from California - where his medical license (109949) was revoked, stayed, then placed on five years probation in April 2015, because of his anti-vax extremism. He eventually moved to south-central Idaho and joined a religious medical clinic. I believe he is still affiliated with it. https://heart2healministry.net/providers/

Conspiracy theorist guest speakers from other states presented to the board every crazy lie from their repertoire, including how the vaccine gives people Covid-19.

Many competent medical staff members, already alarmed at the toxic workplace environment, are now resigning from the health district.

Needing to work to be happy, or to have a meaningful life, or to feel productive or fulfilled, or whatever - that’s been an alien concept to me my entire life.

People talk about their careers with pride, they look forward to going to work and … I don’t understand it. Is this supposed to be an achievement? There is no amount of money or perks that could fool me into believing I’m not selling my life away. It’s really fucking hard to pretend everything is fine, when sometimes I just want to disappear in the woods.

Doesn’t anyone else feel like this?

Ha! This clown is talking about Postcards for Democrats, a grassroots organization of volunteers reminding registered Democrats to vote for their local Democratic candidates. Super threatening to … nazis, I guess?

Only eight states have automatic mail-in voting: California, Colorado, Hawaii, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, Vermont, and Washington state, plus Washington DC.

Some states have No Excuse Required mail-in options, while others have Excuse Required mail-in options. I’ve lived in all three types of states. The automatic (blue) state was best, and No Excuse (purple) state made the mail-in request easy, but I had to jump through hoops and lie my ass off to mail my ballot in the Excuse Required (red) state.

Every state should have automatic or No Excuse mail-in ballots.
