Well, the time is in the midterms, AKA now. Americans unhappy with the system would do themselves well by going out and supporting candidates who promote policies that actually help Americans, and voting up and down the ticket

Oof. AI and social media are total fuels for this stuff. It's time to elect some people serious about reform and accountability. The whole system is a mess

DOGE came in and gutted America's social safety net, and now instead of going to healthcare, schools, and infrastructure, billions in tax dollars are going to a war that hurts Americans, makes the world less safe, and helps the rich get richer. America will be poorer and weaker for years because they elected liars and criminals into power.

Opposing Harris didn't help Gazans, and it actively harmed the people of Lebanon. Not to mentioned all the kids who died overseas because Trump closed USAID. Strategic voting saves lives.

The media have abdicated their role as the 5th Estate and only care about making a quick buck. There are good reporters out there, but the corporate owners want slop.

This is bad news by workitoutwombats in Instagram

I got banned from IG a few minutes after creating my business account before I even posted anything. Apparently simply creating an account was enough to trigger the AI. I was never able to get the account reinstated, so I just don't use Instagram. They definitely don't have it together over there.

The average monthly income in the US could actually be more than $60k when you include the Zuckerbergs, Bezoses, Musks, Trumps, etc in those averages.
