THIS GODDAMN MUTHERFUCKER WAS IN MY DREAM LAST NIGHT.

I SAW THIS POST ONCE. ONCE. FUCKING ONE DAMN TIME. AND IT INFECTED MY DREAMS.

IT WASN'T EVEN JOHN PRICE IN MY DREAM, IT WAS FUCKING JOE COST.

He also had a more dragon looking form that he could transform into and I mean like a dragon, not an anthro looking dragon. It was kinda boney looking and white/greyish? some kinda pale colour idk. It was low key weird, and he had both his wings still. He was also the only COD character??

Then there was this other Percy Jackson ass person who could use water to heal himself and others, and his power got stronger when it rained.

Then there was this kid who's WHOLE ASS JAW WAS GONE and his monster type was something with fire. I just remember that if a fire type went somewhere colder than where they originally lived (They had like a whole ass place that was just fire type monsters) they'd end up like getting their inner fire snuffed out?? Oh and he could also transform himself into different things (that might've been a completely different character tho). He pretty much looked like a normal ass human.

There were others, but the only one I can remember was some teen who was a werewolf (more twilight than ) who could actually howl (sing?) nicely as a wolf, but he was one of them anime mc types. The shit kind. He was also the mc of my dream, I think?

OHHH AND THERE WAS THIS MF THAT WAS LOWKEY PENNYWISE'S/HISOKA'S (from hunter x hunter) FAILED ABORTION CHILD THAT WAS PEDOING AFTER THAT JAWLESS KID.

ANYWAYS, Joe left his children behind (the other "monsters". They were actually just his "taskforce" since they were apart of some type of organization or something? kinda like a Hellboy situation I think...) cuz he wanted to have some kind of normal life for a lil while. So he shed his horns (cuz ig that's what you do to look more human?) and he lowkey looked like BlueGiragi's version of König?

OH I FORGOT THE BEST PART. THERE WAS THIS WIERD SHARK ASS MF THAT WAS BATTLING WITH JOE COST AND JOE HAD THIS WIERD ASS INVISIBLE SHIP THING LIKE IN THE AVENGERS AND THAT'S WHAT HE AND HIS "TASKFORE" LIVED IN SO HE HAD TO MOVE THAT SHIT CUZ THE SHARK DUDE DIED NEAR IT AND APPARENTLY YOU COULD COME BACK FROM DEATH OR SOME SHIT?? AND THAT'S WHY HE DISSAPEARED.

WHAT HAVE MY DREAMS BECOME 😭😭😭😭

now THAT'S a bad dragon...

SPREADSHEET OF PALESTINIAN ESCAPE FUNDS‼️TIME SENSITIVE

Operation Olive Branch is a continuously updating spreadsheet of Palestinian escape funds where progress towards their goals is being tracked. As of right now, there are over 100 funds listed there.

Any amount of money can make a difference. With their recent decision to bomb Rafah, the only remaining “safe” territory in Gaza, Israel has forced Palestinians into a corner by giving them nowhere else to go. The international community has given Israel the ability to act with impunity - it is long past the point in time to rely on those in power to hold Israel to any standard of compassion.

Today, I want you to look at this document, choose a fund, contribute to it, and share it. The people in Rafah are living on borrowed time. Free Palestine.

Things the Biden-Harris Administration Did This Week #31

August 9-16 2024

President Biden and Vice-President Harris announced together the successful conclusion of the first negotiations between Medicare and pharmaceutical companies over drug prices. For years Medicare was not allow to directly negotiate princes with drug companies leaving seniors to pay high prices. It has been a Democratic goal for many years to change this. President Biden noted he first introduced a bill to allow these negotiations as a Senator back in 1973. Thanks to Inflation Reduction Act, passed with no Republican support using Vice-President Harris' tie breaking vote, this long time Democratic goal is now a reality. Savings on these first ten drugs are between 38% and 79% and will collectively save seniors $1.8 billion dollars in out of pocket costs. This comes on top of the Biden-Harris Administration already having capped the price of insulin for Medicare's 3.5 million diabetics at $35 a month, as well as the Administration's plan to cap Medicare out of pocket drug costs at $2,000 a year starting January 2025.

President Biden and Vice President Harris have launched a wide ranging all of government effort to crack down on companies wasting customers time with excessive paperwork, hold times, and robots rather than real people. Some of the actions from the "Time is Money" effort include: The FTC and FCC putting forward rules that require companies to make canceling a subscription or service as easy as signing up for it. The Department of Transportation has required automatic refunds for canceled flights. The CFPB is working on rules to require companies to have to allow customers to speak to a real person with just one button click ending endless "doom loops" of recored messages. The CFPB is also working on rules around chatbots, particularly their use from banks. The FTC is working on rules to ban companies from posting fake reviews, suppressing honest negative reviews, or paying for  positive reviews. HHS and the Department of Labor are taking steps to require insurance companies to allow health claims to be submitted online. All these actions come on top of the Biden Administration's efforts to get rid of junk fees.

President Biden and First Lady Jill Biden announced further funding as part of the President's Cancer Moonshot. The Cancer Moonshot was launched by then Vice-President Biden in 2016 in the aftermath of his son Beau Biden's death from brain cancer in late 2015. It was scrapped by Trump as political retaliation against the Obama-Biden Administration. Revived by President Biden in 2022 it has the goal of cutting the number of cancer deaths in half over the next 25 years, saving 4 million lives. Part of the Moonshot is Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H), grants to help develop cutting edge technology to prevent, detect, and treat cancer. The President and First Lady announced $150 million in ARPA-H grants this week focused on more successful cancer surgeries. With grants to Tulane, Rice, Johns Hopkins, and Dartmouth, among others, they'll help fund imaging and microscope technology that will allow surgeons to more successfully determine if all cancer has been remove, as well as medical imaging focused on preventing damage to healthy tissues during surgeries.

Vice-President Harris announced a 4-year plan to lower housing costs. The Vice-President plans on offering $25,000 to first time home buyers in down-payment support. It's believed this will help support 1 million first time buyers a year. She also called for the building of 3 million more housing units, and a $40 billion innovation fund to spur innovative housing construction. This adds to President Biden's call for a $10,000 tax credit for first time buyers and calls by the President to punish landlords who raise the rent by over 5%.

President Biden Designates the site of the 1908 Springfield Race Riot a National Monument. The two day riot in Illinois capital took place just blocks away from Abraham Lincoln's Springfield home. In August 1908, 17 people die, including a black infant, and 2,000 black refugees were forced to flee the city. As a direct result of the riot, black community leaders and white allies met a few months later in New York and founded the NAACP. The new National Monument will seek to preserve the history and educate the public both on the horrible race riot as well as the foundation of the NAACP. This is the second time President Biden has used his authority to set up a National Monument protecting black history, after setting up the Emmett Till and Mamie Till-Mobley National Monument on Emmett Till's 82nd birthday July 25th 2023.

The Department of The Interior announced $775 million to help cap and clean up orphaned oil and gas wells. The money will help cap wells in 21 states. The Biden-Harris Administration has allocated $4.7 billion to plug orphaned wells, a billion of which has already been distributed. More than 8,200 such wells have been capped since the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law passed in 2022. Orphaned wells leak toxins into communities and are leaking the super greenhouse gas methane. Plugging them will not only improve the health of nearby communities but help fight climate change on a global level.

Vice-President Harris announced plans to ban price-gouging in the food and grocery industries. This would be a first ever federal ban on price gouging and Harris called for clear "rules of the road" on price rises in food, and strong penalties from the FTC for those who break them. This is in line with President Biden's launching of a federal Strike Force on Unfair and Illegal Pricing in March, and Democratic Senator Bob Casey's bill to ban "shrinkflation". In response to this pressure from Democrats on price gouging and after aggressive questions by Senator Casey and Senator Elizabeth Warren, the supermarket giant Kroger proposed dropping prices by a billion dollars

remember. choosing to not involve yourself in the trolley problem because you don’t like either outcome does not solve it. you will not be a hero to anyone if you abstain from voting in this election

Wut and Sol said they could give Joe some money out of kindness, and Joe could pay them back whenever.

Ming said he would give Joe whatever he wanted in exchange for Joe's body because Ming is selfish.

Joe taking Ming's deal is the most relatable moment I've had with Joe because I, too, would pick the devil I already know. Mixing finances with friends is always dicey, and he would still owe them. With Ming, it's business and he doesn't have to worry about ruining a friendship. He can hate Ming, but as long as Ming runs him his money, he'll continue to do his job because this is just another stand-in job.

Joe is really saying "sex work is work"

And I respect that.

A week after "uncommitted" made a surprising showing against President Joe Biden in the Michigan primary, voters around the nation had a chance to weigh whether "no preference" was preferable to the incumbent president.

In Michigan's Democratic primary last week, over 100,000 voters cast their ballots as uncommitted, more than 13% of the total votes cast. The movement was put together by various politicians and community organizers of Arab and Muslim descent, and intended as an act of electoral protest against President Joe Biden's unconditional support of the Israeli military.

...

Coverage of the 'uncommitted' initiative has centered largely around the sentiments of Michigan's Arab and Muslim American population, which is one of the largest in the nation. But some observers thought Super Tuesday's Democratic primaries could provide an initial gauge of how deep discontent runs among other historically loyal Democratic voting blocs outside of Muslim and Arab Americans.

...

The large number of “uncommitted” ballots in Michigan shows Biden’s vulnerability in a swing state that could play a pivotal role in November. Biden defeated Trump by just 154,000 votes in 2020. (Uncommitted Michigan had 101k votes)

...

14.6% in Minnesota Democratic primary

...

10.5% in North Carolina Democratic primary

Biden won the Democratic race in the diverse swing state of North Carolina with 89.5% of the vote. Meanwhile, the "uncommitted" option took 10.5% of the vote with nearly 39,900 voters.

...

7.3% in Colorado Democratic primary

The "Noncommitted Delegate" option received 7.3% of the vote with a total of 35,674 as Biden came out victorious with 84.7% of votes.

...

3.9% in Iowa Democratic caucus

...

3.3% in Tennessee Democratic Primary

With a total of 2,215 votes, the "uncommitted" option received 3.3% of the vote in the Tennessee Democratic Primary. Biden received 96.7% of the vote.

...

5.1% in Alabama Democratic primary

...

11.2% in Massachusetts Democratic primary

The no preference option took 11.2% of votes in Massachusetts Democratic primary with a total 8,569 votes.

===============================

The math of these bigger numbers plus Michigan alone puts the Uncommitted vote at 187,331, not counting the smaller races from other states. Again, Biden only beat Trump in 2020 by 154k. Uncommitted votes from a few of the State Primaries that have already been held.
