"We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope." ~ Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

To all my Bluesky friends and to those I hope to meet soon, please know that you are the cause of infinite hope. Your decency, your tenacity, your righteous indignation, and your optimism that we can repair the world are translating hope into positive action and change.

I woke up and turned on the local news shortly after 6 AM today

It took about 30 minutes to get to the story that our fucking president attacked Venezuela and kidnapped their president!

Keep talking about them and demanding the full release of all un-redacted Epstein files. NOW!

I'd rather have apes running this Nation than the mother fucking uneducated illiterate goons in there now!

America is supposed to be the land of the free. So why are extremist pundits and politicians leading attacks on the rights of vulnerable people who just want to be themselves? Fear mongering is about power, not people. Spread facts, not fear! #TruthBrigade truthbrigade.indivisible.org/s/rQjgjSWC

Austerity is the midwife of fascism YouTube video by Richard J Murphy

History shows it clearly: austerity creates the conditions in which fascism thrives. When governments strip away public services, weaken safety nets and deepen inequality, people lose hope in democracy and turn to authoritarian “strongmen.”

Yes of course America got the Temu version of fascists

Newsom: We got here because the President is struggling. We got here because the President is one of the most unpopular presidents in U.S. history. We got here because he recognizes that he will lose the election.

Silence

Complicity

Straighten your spine
Speak & live your truth

For years we've heard from the right about "welfare queens" and other so-called "freeloaders" pulling one over on the government.

But actually, it's the wealthy who are the real freeloaders — pulling one over on us all by skirting their taxes.

Where is the outrage over that?

Mother Gaia to celebrate Pride Month tonight after sunset

Shhh. Republicans are trying to repeal Obamacare again. Sort of. They’re not branding it an Obamacare repeal this time around, but congressional Republicans are pursuing cuts to programs that are part of the 15-year-old health-care law.

Here's something everybody should be paying attention to: Congressional Republicans are trying to weaken the Affordable Care Act and put millions of people at risk of losing their health care. Call your Senators and tell them we can't let that happen.
