A blessing of food and drink laid out on a table with a large window that overlooks a mosque. Text in the image reads, “Happy Ramadan, Praying for Peace.”
While I do not personally celebrate Ramadan, I want to wish you peace. We need to create peace by removing those that create war! Peace is a human right!

Happy Chinese New Year to everyone who celebrates!

Legendary actor Robert Duvall has passed away at 95 years old. I often think about his patience and demeanor that came out in his acting style. In some ways, his style shaped who I looked up to as a man.
Love is intentional. We simply must change if we want to see change.
Minnesota Public Radio is reporting on the Trump Administration’s legal action against having to provide ASL because it “would severely intrude on the President’s prerogative to control the image he presents to the public.”

The sun is so majestic as it peaks over the hills in the morning. We exist as moments in time compared to nature. Imagine if we could live in harmony!

There is so much that needs to change in our world. Personally, I find the foundational principles of eco socialism to be more in sync with the needs of our time. We need to convert to a system that harmonizes human and ecological sustainability recognizing diversity, and culture.
Welcome to a new sunrise. Another day to try and change the world for the better. Small contributions add up.

The hippies believed they were living in a transformative period where people finally stood up against a system that no longer fit real and authentic, wholesome life.
I believe the world needs that. I do not side with any nation any longer. We need to all address these global issues together.
I believe that it will divide the Republican Party which is similar to the Green Party shifting votes from Democrats. Expanding fascism however is never a good thing.
So swimming in bacteria and polluted rivers do not help? Apparently that is the guidance of the US.
Technology has a place, but has proven time and again that education fails if people are removed from the equation.

Nobody is as gummed up as him for sure!
I would argue as someone retired from 23 years of military service that this is gross negligence. I am glad it happened however. It shows the lack of empathy and human dignity that these people have.
USAFacts states that over 15 million homes are vacant (10% of all homes). In other words, one out of 10 houses is vacant in the U.S.

Good point. The current president may decide to complete a takeover.

Imagine this all taking place just three months after a press release by the U.S. State Department touting about how well the U.S. is doing on human rights. 2021-2025.state.gov/u-s-achievem...
An IMF study between 1963-2014 of 151 countries proves how tariffs are bad for the working class and poor.
“Tariff increases result in more unemployment, higher inequality, and real exchange rate appreciation, but only small effects on the trade balance.”

Sending prayers to Orebro Sweden where a mass shooting took place at a school. The worst so far in their history.
We are living in very stressful and chaotic times. The stress of cultural change and global power shifts are wrecking havoc on societies.

I apologize for missing the “is” after “council”. (Jeremy, get your grammar right!) I just read about this and am thumbing my post and didn’t want to delete and start over.
Vote for world peace and never give up on a push for human rights! I realize that it takes honest people to protect it!
There are many days that will be dark. Negative focus can change our perception, potentially missing out on the light that can shine through even the darkest of clouds.
“it is always darkest before the dawn”. -Thomas Fuller, 17th Century historian.

I am sad to see the control of journalism controlled merely on metrics designed to sell advertising or increase revenue. I feel you could become very successful as an independent going public on YouTube.
Welcome to a better social media. Hopefully it grows larger than FB or Twitter was.
We are in a powerful age of media now where political positions or religious idealism can be forced upon people. It also does not seem to be illegal when the actions are done by non-state actors. What a disaster for human rights and world relations.
