  3. As #Democrats struggle in #polls to surpass expectations of crazy #RWNJ rhetoric, it is important to note #Unemployment in #USA is at historic near all time low hovering around 4%. Current stats show 254,000 jobs added in September tally alone.

  5. CW: Australia's new "package"

    In tomorrow's budget, #Australia's Treasurer is set to replace the #JobKeeper program with the #FartMaker.

    Take #selfie videos while picking #beans, #broccoli, #bokChoy, #cabbage or #kale and earn #fiatRewards.

    In a surprise pairing with BigTech, #JobSeekers and non-#homeBuilders will lose support and telecommunications services if Alexa, Siri or Google detect I2P traffic or a #fastFood fart.

    Also #ElonMusk may randomly drone bomb you.
