If Trump now defies court orders, America is left powerless against a dictatorship. The courts cannot enforce their decisions, that's the job of Trump's DOJ. Good luck with that. Trump's has immunity for Presidential actions, thank you Chief Justice Roberts. And that's how dictatorship are made.

I'm Mar🐫 & I approve this message. 👍

Why does your voice remind me of the Dead Milkmen?

Too Soon?

Im American and I agree. My hope is our allies do not stand by passively as this man inhabits America's White House. Relations will return to normal as soon as the cult of personality disappears and responsible leadership returns. Sometimes, going backwards can help a return to normalcy..

Late Valentine's evening ride post.

We wanted them to have healthcare and a high paying job and a planet to live on and freedom. They want us to suffer. The parties are not the same.

The snark was strong on this day! (Way back when)

Bluesky bots rock when I'm bored.

I just turned 66. I was raised to be decent and honest, to treat others with respect. Like most of us, I have not been perfect. We all try. What I struggle with the most is this. How did one of the biggest assholes (Pardon my French but I think we all speak French here) become idolized by so many?

Boycotting here.

Trump will be at the Super Bowl. I'm a big NFL fan but I'm not going to watch. People can call it TDS but I call it patriotism.

The tolerance by many for Trump's insane political rant at his post-crash press conference is disturbing. What would it take to change the minds of this cult? The truest words Trump ever spoke was when he told America that he could shoot someone in the middle of 5th Avenue & not lose a single vote.

Pardon my skepticism, but I've lost faith in the American justice system... and the American people on the whole. It's "US" v "THEM" these days and the good guys don't seem to be winning.

I hated those Steelers back then... now I look back with much respect. You're right, the good ole days. Back then, you were a Steeler, a Raider, a Cowboy. Now, most of them are football players with a 3 year visit to different teams.

Who will look into this? The White House? The Republican Congress? The far right nonpolitical (ahem) Supreme Court? If the last 8 years have taught us anything, it's that Trump, more often than not, comes out unscathed. Maybe America needs a few scares to have their eyes open.

Looks as if Republicans in Congress are more than willing to surrender their "separate but equal" powers. The price for saving their jobs...

I know of the good Pete Carroll has done in Seattle. But with no qb & 22+ years of mediocrity to downright failure, it is difficult for me to conjure up any optimism. Thanks for trying to send some hope my way.

All I know is that if I was going to steal an election, the two men I want on my side are Elon Musk and Vladimir Putin.

Listen. I’m a middle aged married dude with not a lot going on in life. I’m not gullible enough to think for a second you’re in to me. Luckily we are able to disable DMs. Bluesky needs to get a handle on the pornbot issue.

Thank you for posting. Today was a good day to see this.

A wrist band that says You Are Not Alone is on a journal with the same words and a pen is on the side with another journal in background.

Yesterday, I took a social media and msm detox.

Without negative distractions, I worked on my writing projects, exercise, actual sleep, mindfulness, therapy, my family & volunteering.

When you feel helpless, search for purpose; within self-care & compassionate community action. 🧵

Now would be an excellent time. Trump basically ran a 4 year campaign, smearing Joe Biden every chance he could. Hate to admit it but it worked. If that's the new rules of the game, so be it.

Trump wants Canada to be the 51st state, not Mexico. Canada is whiter.

Q: Where do watermelons go on their summer vacation?

A: John Cougar Mellencamp.

I've been looking at Bonnie T100s. Maybe I'll power up in a year or two. A few guys I met here ride Harleys... A street glide and a fat bob. Seems rather unnecessary to me, but it's all a matter of choice. Ride what you enjoy, right?

The Continental GT is probably the better looking bike, but I'm 65 now and chose a more upright driving position with the Interceptor. Plus with the desire for touring and island hopping, it just seems like the better choice for me.

I believe if the last election taught us anything, it's that the freedom to lie is more important than facts or truth.
