Teachers are the backbone of every community. As such, workload, pay, and respect require consideration in all discussion of education.

We Completely Support This! Do it Massie….

President of Venezuela King of All Oil

Preventable crises will remain permanent fixtures as long as we treat public health like an afterthought. Our systems are failing even as we watch.gradually while everyone looks away.

Voting access is the foundation of legitimacy. Making participation harder for the people with the least free time undoes our democracy. #Voting

Washington agencies talk about “efficiency” while cutting the very programs people rely on during heat emergencies and rising medical costs. Missouri summers don’t care about political slogans and double-talk. Lives are at stake.

I really hate this new coinage, which to my mind serves to legitimize the malignant fiction that there’s some kind of a hierarchy of American citizenship.

Bringing women’s voices into what had been male-dominated political conversations—and showing that feminism was good for men, too—was a big step.

A man who owes a woman $5 million for sexual assault and was besties with a pedo should STFU about protecting women and girls.

So SCOTUS refused to hear Trump's sexual assault case. So he owes her $5 million plus interest. The big thing here is that he is a "adjudicated rapist". And he is still allowed to be the President of the US????!!!!! An "adjudicated rapist" is the President???? How is this even possible?? HOW??

Unity is not a decoration or ornament, rather it requires work, sacrifice, hours, effort and being inconvenienced.

If your government doesn't follow the laws, you don't have a government. If your president is lawless, he's not a president.

Gentle Thoughts for Opposition: I don’t mind disagreement. I mind the kind where someone stops listening before you finish the first sentence.

A lot of California small business owners are operating under privacy rules they don't know apply to them — and the window for responding to a data breach just got shorter.

I am not a prolific poster, but I like organizing in support of women. When I think of supporting women, I avoid the negativity of attacks on males. Rather, I strive for positive action: patronizing superior women-owned business, outreach, shelters, PP...and online. 💗 go.bsky.app/DNgPNfj

Joy is often a bowl of noodles eaten without rushing. And I am not kidding at all.

Exactly. Trump has no redeeming qualities whatsoever.

Gardening It took 10 years to hybridize my favorite soil preparation techniques and create a single plan that addresses immediate and future fertility and moisture retention with emphasis on structure. Contemplated for urban gardeners. #hugelkulture #trench #supersoil #vermicomposting #gardening

I was young the first time the news disturbed me and how fortunate for me my great-grandmother was alive. "Oh Allie, I am so sorry. None of this is new. Your parents think they discovered injustice. [she cackled] Hardship and cruelty are constants best combated, not by outrage, but love."

I am not a fan of our using military assets in any engagement that is not defensive. I cannot morally justify it. Codified in our law is the notion that lethal force is not warranted unless there is a threat of imminent bodily harm. The United States should not play God.

Give the Devil his due, this man will profit from anything.

A word about the “unexpected” heat. Anyone who’s lived through a Midwest July could’ve told them the air’s been changing for years. #climate

Very telling to me that these people always see the (very real!) conflict between feminism and heterosexuality as one that can only be fixed by abandoning feminism, and not by changing heterosexuality.

A lot of white gay men and white women use “white women” (derogatory) as a way to give their rancid misogynist takes an air of wokeness.

Italy seizing millions in Mafia‑linked assets.... ....is a blueprint for how to deal with the Trump infestation.

This belongs in every classroom. When systems fail people, solidarity is our lifeline. #Education #Unity #Literature

I apologize for being so grouchy: The political obsession with “border security” is a convenient distraction from the fact that the country can’t even secure clean water in half its municipalities. #frustrated

Stores are quietly refusing cash and calling it a “digital transition.” 🤔 When physical currency disappears your ability to buy food, fuel, or basic necessities can be switched off with a single keystroke. Cash is a safeguard against oligarch control.

With what frequency is “tradition” invoked to defend practices that were never admirable? Shall we conduct periodic reviews of our traditions?

The CDC, ECDC, and U.S. State Department all confirm an active Ebola outbreak in DRC and Uganda.

There used to be much more talk about “punchable faces.”

We have some world leaders insisting the Strait of Hormuz situation is “stabilizing.” However, every ship in the region looks like it’s bracing for impact. I far prefer to be told troubling news honestly than to be lied to. #GlobalPolitics

The U.S.–Iran “cooling off” after a day of threats is not diplomacy. I am skeptical.

Atlantic hurricane season starting with “no activity yet” is the kind of calm that never lasts. We shall shortly find out.

Enormous amount of Farms have gone Bankrupt since the Beginning of 2025….. “START by TALKING ABOUT THESE DATA CENTERS NOW OR WE LOSE.I'M SERIOUS.WATER. ENERGY. FARMLAND. THIS IS BIGGER THAM PEOPLE REALIZE!”

Pedo administration’s attempt to halt immigration to “sanctuary cities” is less policy and more performance — a symbolic fight dressed up as national security. THERE IS NO VIAGRA FOR THIS IMPOTENCE.

Whether cynical or realistic, I am viewing expenditures and essentially all governments' activities with a far more critical eye. Thank you @raquelreveals.bsky.social -Bill

Fuel prices rising for the fifth week straight.....

I refuse to speak under oath, get out the car, put hands up and BOOM candlelight vigils for dead Porshia.

@thewelshtaffy24.bsky.social Thank you so very much for having me in this group! go.bsky.app/RZFVBTX

Thank you so very much for thinking to include me.

Let's hope this is the case. No way the American taxpayer should be offering payouts to people who stormed the Capitol on J6 and attacked police officers.

Are you paying attention?

Lawyers, Guns & Money: Look at this and Rhodes dismissal case together: a coordinated effort to create a billion-dollar funding stream outside appropriations and oversight rewarding and sustain networks personally loyal to Trump, including those same organizations.
