Liberal, humanist, skeptic. If you're not real, please don't bother talking to me. I'm old, I like science, art, good music,cannelés de bordeaux and odd and interesting people. And proper punctuation.
You are a brave man.

Putin got his photo op, whitewashing of war crimes and no sanctions.
No one in Ukraine, Europe or the United States benefited in any way.
Not only the vaccines but also millions lost in food waste. And that in a time where millions of people are starving to death. It's absolutely shameful.

You follow one charismatic Leader.
In your Leader’s mind, your Leader can do no wrong.
In your mind, your Leader can do no wrong.
Your Leader demonizes dissidents & outsiders.
Loyalty's the ultimate measure of your devotion.
You don't know you're in a Cult

Seems like the wrong time to limit the Nation’s capacity to conduct climate research.
Pritzker: It’s time for us to be done with optimism about their motives. Time to stop wondering if you can trust the nuclear codes to people who don’t know how to organize a group chat. It’s time to stop ignoring the hypocrisy in wearing a big gold cross while announcing the defunding of children’s cancer research… Autistic kids and adults who are loving contributors to our society don’t deserve to be stigmatized by a weird nepo baby who once stashed a dead bear in his car. Our military service members don’t deserve to be told by a washed-up Fox TV commentator, who drank too much before being appointed Secretary of Defense, that they can’t serve their country simply because they are Black, gay, or a woman.
Dear god let this man cook.
