Religion has always been used as a cop out and cloaking device to guard against self examination.
If I’m part of a “righteous” group occupied with judging/crucifying others, I can sit in my ivory tower of arrogance and blindness, safe from seeing or correcting my own miserable internal reality.

For the #HandsOff , there were a group of seniors that couldn't make it to the Capitol.

So they held their very own! 57 of them came out!

Aged 67-104!

They all walked down to the main street! So proud of them!

They had s sign making day before the event!

They sent this video to me to share.🥰

The Grief of Sharing a Country With Trump Supporters More often than I like to admit, some recurring dark thoughts creep in and level me these days.

It's simply demoralizing sharing a country with people who think Donald Trump is someone worth emulating: to be surrounded by that kind of moral inversion every single day, to be continually encountering such cruelty.

The fact that everything around us is burning to the ground & some people still have no clue that they voted for the arsonist or are complicit in the arson is absolutely mind boggling.

People are ok with it so long as the black woman isn’t their President 🤯.

America, we have a problem!

The U.S is the wealthiest country in the history of the world. We should not have the highest rate of child poverty of nearly every major country on earth. We should have the lowest.
 
It's time to end this international embarrassment & create an economy that works for all.

Ruth was my editor when I contributed to the Post. She’s the best, as a human being and a journalist.

I can’t imagine how painful to her the destruction of the institution to which she devoted her amazing career as a reporter, editorial writer, and editor must be.

It’s heartbreaking.

It's Okay To Let People Know What You're Against "You should let people know what you're for, not what you're against."

I want people to know what I'm against.

I want to specifically name the things I find unconscionable, the conduct that turns my stomach, the legislation I abhor, the cruelty I will not abide.

These days necessitate moral clarity.

Aside from the obvious direct harm, what's so irritating is that a handful of spoiled ignorant assholes are breaking things that we all built together. They weren't content to own almost everything, they had to wreck what little they didn't own. It's vandalism on a mass scale and has to be punished
