Anyone know a good way to bulk-buy lithium battery packs to charge phones in the US? Unhoused folks need them since opportunities to charge are limited, as is the battery life of the kinds of phones they can afford. Quantity 10-ish, but if anyone in #Pittsburgh wants to go in on a bigger buy I&#39;d be down.

Let&#39;s all take a moment to reflect on what a blatant example of either willful ignorance or outright lying &quot;If you use X against fascists they&#39;ll use it against you&quot; turned out to be, since they will use X against you anyway. And then remember every single person who ever said it to you.

Do you s&#39;pose Trump keeps lying and claiming the Iranians have reached out to try to make a deal because he&#39;s setting things up to be able to chicken out at any time by saying the Iranians finally offered a good enough deal?

Weird how all these countries Trump has been threatening with tariffs aren&#39;t jumping at the chance to help him out now that he&#39;s dug himself into a nice deep hole.

Just heard from @jaythurbershow that the weather station at Allegheny County Airport reported a gust of 69mph last night, and that PIT was reporting 4th highest wind speeds outside of a thunderstorm. Be careful out there!
