One third of the country supported the January 6 2021 attempted take over the government & are the same ones who voted him back in. They are traitors in my book.

Can you feel it this morning ? Doesn't the sun seem a bit brighter, the air a bit cleaner, feeling a bit less hopeless, frustrated, worried, angry ? It does to me, starting as I watched the returns last night and saw wins everywhere for us and for democracy. Does it mean we can stop working...

"I became a hater by doing precisely those things AI cannot do: reading and understanding human language; thinking and reasoning about ideas; considering the meaning of my words and their context; loving people, making art, living in my body with its flaws and feelings and life."
