One minute, you’re young, fun, enthusiastic, and a real badass. The next, you’re turning down the stereo in your car so you can see better.

This reminds me that there are more of us, than there are of them. Let's never forget how much power we have, especially now.

I may write a book about things I should be doing with my life. It would be my Oughtabiography. 🐢💨

4th of July doesn't even register in my head anymore. It's just Fireworks That Scare my Dog day

The Founders didn't risk the gallows because they hated America. They risked everything because they loved it enough to confront tyranny. Patriotism isn't pretending everything is fine. It's defending the republic when it isn't. open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

People don’t hate Trump because they hate their country; they hate Trump because they love their country.

I just found out that I got approved for a ground beef loan, so it looks like the July 4 cookout will be on this year after all.

The effective way the clarinet player does a musical call and response to the singer is just mesmerizing. "Tu vuo' fa' l'americano" by Renato Carosone: cover by Hetty and the Jazzato Band, an Anglo-Italian jazz quintet. @Rainmaker1973 #globalmuseum #music #jazz

The older I get, the more I understand why water has been so revered in so many cultures. Not because people worshipped the water itself, but because they recognized that without water, nothing else exists. Water is the thread that holds every living system together.

Didn’t see this coming. Another Senate race to watch closely. Lindsey Graham spent years acting like South Carolina belonged to him. The voters might have other plans. Dr. Annie Andrews is at 45%, and among informed voters, she leads Graham 46% to 43%.

Still one of my all-time favorites! 🙌🏼 🏆 🥇

It's really this simple. If you still support Donald Trump, you're a traitor to America.

Voting for Trump in 2016 was ignorant. Voting for Trump in 2020 was malicious. Voting for Trump in 2024 was evil. Still supporting Trump in 2026 is irredeemable. Subscribe For FREE : publicsquaremedia.substack.com/subscribe
