This article by @tressiemcphd.bsky.social on how monopolized corporate control of news content, social media algorithms, the internet, and information itself has enabled the destruction of civic culture is a must read. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/01/o... At the very least, read her closing argument:

Cue Beyoncé “I’M THAT GIRL”

This album and this song in particular. Hayley continues to be one of my favorite musicians/artists. Also, Paramore is my favorite band.

Democratic Leaders and everyone, keep asking this administration and the Republicans: Why are you against healthcare? Why are you against education? Why are you against a living wage? Why are you against freedom of speech and press? Why are you against the Constitution? What are you afraid of?

A (Fore) Word

You know what’s a crime worth mentioning and addressing to the public with this same vigor and rhetoric: the names of the pedophiles in the Epstein Files. But wait, you want us to stop attacking the pedophiles, right Ted Cruz?

Oh this is better for the economy? But remember, Trump’s 1st term, they didn’t care about the elderly, disabled, and immunocompromised (re: COVID). Even Lieutenant Governor of Texas, Dan Patrick thought the elderly should sacrifice themselves for the economy. The GOP = The Party Of Death

Not only are Republicans supporting a felon for President, fascism, disregard for the Constitution (treason), dismantling education, healthcare, food safety/security, our international allyships, covering up the Epstein files, but blatantly saying to support pedophilia? This is what you voted for?

Some good news.

JUST IN: The Supreme Court has temporarily blocked President Trump's attempt to fire Federal Reserve governor Lisa Cook, a move that critics say would have compromised the central bank's independence

quick while the government is shut down let’s all switch to metric

Who can afford life right now? Until we champion living wages, healthcare for all, free education and stimulus/incentives (connects back to living wages), and push for wise and responsible leadership the living situation will remain dire leaving the majority of us in poverty and sickness.

Government shut down because Republicans don’t want to pay people, but will bail out Fortune 500 to make their stocks and portfolios safe while working class citizens become more impoverished. Education is in flux, and farmers/food in another crisis. Maybe stop voting for Trump and the Republicans.

*slowly walks in, drops this nostalgia bomb* 🏃🏽‍♀️🏃🏽‍♀️🏃🏽‍♀️🏃🏽‍♀️

Because the GOP doesn’t care about this country or its citizens. Mark this down and record it for later when it comes up again, and it will.

Bought MVP book and something I noted at the start, throughout, and even with this book tore, The Democratic Party fucked up holding out on endorsements and being snarky with their support and criticisms; not only of Biden (whose team also fallible), but of Harris. The Democrats need

This will be good!

Hey, neat www.irishnews.com/news/norther...

America is bailing out Argentina, while Argentine farmers sell soybeans to China instead of American farmers, thereby bankrupting them, which is why America also have to bail out American farmers. If this is considered winning, I fear what losing looks like.

This harkens back to when the Enslaved were not allowed (actually made it illegal) for them to read and therefore write because the South didn’t want them to be educated, because if you’re educated you can defend yourself against the injustice of slavery, you can be free. History is repeating.

White people massacred Native Americans because they thought it was their right because America was supposed to be “undiscovered” territory, which translates (to them) as unclaimed land. 400+ years of Slavery. But BOUGHT land from the other white peoples (French). America was built on racism.

Incompetence is costly. Fascism costs more.

On the subject of Pete Buttigieg being MVP Kamala Harris VP choice, She is correct in that the American people would have ate him and her UP. The media and the public couldn’t fathom her being President, and she is still the most qualified candidate in American history, and YET 1/

Okay, UNT! Go represent a good thing from Texas. Kudos to Adam Yang and his team of students.

What is ace-time-tophin? Is that similar to Tylenol? I guess we shall never know now we defunded The Department of Education. Guess we can rely on the wisdom and validity of the Health and Human Services Department that clearly know how to spell and know science. 😒

OH MY GOD!!!! Mashallah, 🤩 it’s Lamb Chop. I used to watch Lamb Chop religiously.

These countries should roast his ass and America making us the laughing stock of the entire world until America is so fucking embarrassed they NEVER put a dumb fuck like him in office again. Americans should be so fucking embarrassed.

Imagine what the US would be like if white folks had this energy for issues that actually mattered.

You get mad if someone doesn’t understand/know your colloquialism(s), but you listen to this man and think intelligence? Leadership? Integrity? Responsible? Educated? Wise? Let alone, moral and/or Christian? If so, you would be vastly incorrect, and quite possibly terribly daft and inept.

Again, Kamala nor the Obama’s could have saved us or can save us. The 70+ millions of people that voted for Trump/Vance are the ones that you need to get their shit together. The people who didn’t vote or voted third people and the young people who will be able to vote can help. That’s it.

RFK Jr., in charge of Health and Human services, sounds like they’re dying; let alone why both him and Trump look orange like some offshoot jaundice, and neither know what the fuck they are talking about. No research or science or study based with facts. Just incorrect and dangerous opinions.

Easily breaking the first two Commandments of the Ten.

We would all be able to thrive.

So freedom of speech, press, and the right to protest is no longer valid in this administration. Sounds Un-Constitutional Sounds Un-American

Please stop. You know damn well Jesus could have been Kamala’s running mate and Trump still would have won. They didn’t give a fuck about her policies or how she wanted to help this country. They cared ONLY about doing what they have done since the election. They seek power, not resolutions.

His administration is doing any and everything to carry out their agenda more aggressively because they are losing legally because nothing they’re doing is Constitutional. They refuse to have integrity, ethics or morals. Instead, they serve death of democracy and freedoms of speech and protest.

Music to my ears Bless these courts/judges that have been upholding the Constitution/rule of law, protecting us from corruption, and giving the President another loss.

Cowardice along with the lack of integrity and true morals and the ethics to uphold the Constitution and the Bill Of RightsRights is plaguing America.

Crockett plays no games with Patel.

I would've ridden him to freedom, too.

Far as I can tell, Robert Redford was: * successful at everything he tried * genuinely intelligent & insightful * desired by women * envied by men * an absolute mensch to everyone he dealt with * a tireless, lifelong philanthropist ... and he died peacefully in his sleep. 10/10 life. No notes.
