Thank you, President Biden! 804,000 long-term borrowers will have student loans forgiven before payments resume this fall. 82 year old Karin Engstrom thought she’d be paying off her federal student loans for the rest of her life, she now has a $0 balance.

And let's run these imbeciles who support Russian aggression out of office. Permanently. Regardless of which side of the aisle they occupy.

Never thought I'd see the day where an American political party would so blatantly procalim their loyalty to a global menace and genocidal war criminal who threatens the world with nuclear weapons.

Minutes before midnight's deadline, POTUS signed the bill to keep government funded & avoid shutdown. The omission of funding for Ukraine must be fixed, not just to protect them, but to stop Russia from attacking us & other countries & ending democracy.

If you require more than one edit, delete the spout and try again. Our edit button was intended to give users a second chance to correct something they missed or to add additional context.

Khrissy Choate @KhrissyChoateYes, please! Could you also make it editable more than once in that time frame? Sometimes I don’t catch all my typos at once. Maybe 2-3 edits in the 60 minute window?05:49 PM - Sep 30, 2023

Quasar @QuasarI'm a big fan of bookmarks. Thanks for that. I also like the auto numbering for threads. I really wish we could create an entire thread before posting it, though. Posting each part one at a time makes creating and reading them very cumbersome.01:52 PM - Sep 30, 2023

We are thinking about increasing the edit window to 60 minutes.

I'd love to write a threaded spout all at once before it posts instead of adding one at a time. Also would love to be able to see if someone is following me when scroll through my "following" list instead of having to click over to their profile.

Cabrera said an estimated 35% of all the migrants on those buses have been under the age of 18.
In a statement, L.A. Mayor Karen Bass said Abbott “continues to put vulnerable lives in jeopardy with limited food and water” on multi-day bus journeys.

Kevin McCarthy is so fucking bad at his job. he spent two weeks getting tortured by the shit-flingers in his own party and then he caved at the last minute, and he'll probably still lose his job anyway because inexplicably-unindicted sex pest Matt Gaetz hates his fucking guts. pass the popcorn
04:39 PM - Sep 30, 2023
I concur with all of this.

if Jamaal Bowman pulling a fire alarm has you shitting bricks, wait until you hear about the guy who sent an armed mob to overrun the Capitol and obstruct the certification of electoral votes, all because he was too big a fucking baby to deal with the fact that he's a massive fucking loser

#SpoutibleNews Democratic Rep. Jamaal Bowman of New York pulled the fire alarm in a Capitol office building on Saturday ahead of a crucial, last-minute House vote that could avert a government shutdown, his office confirmed.

Today has been a bizarre roll out of news: death of Feinstein, indicted guy flipping in Georgia case, Tupac case solved, and the days not over.

I wouldn't be surprised if at least a dozen take a plea deal--hard to say 'flip' since those 'coupons' are first come, first served--by the 23rd. That's the trial date for Powell and Chesebro, and they could be among the pleaders. This will be a busy weekend for all of them and their lawyers.

Boosting the signal but not because of Phred's offer- mostly creatives just need to stick together and I know I'm going to be marketing on here like a fiend whenever my own book is done.

What's worse is that to build Max they further gutted the market that would watch Discovery Plus, which is unarguably a better app than both HBO Max and Max.

Dead Ted @deadtedBlame Zaslav. It was much better before he took over. Had "hubs" where you could find all of one type of content: DC, TCM, Ghibli, Adult Swim, etc. Also had leaving soon and just added sections I checked at the beginning of every month. All gone now.08:24 PM - Sep 29, 2023

I've never been a poutine fan (gravy isn't on my list of Cool Stuff), but the fact that any form of french fries is a Canadian staple will always fill me with happiness.
