At least 10 gun industry businesses, including Glock, Smith & Wesson, Remington and Mossberg, secretly handed over names, addresses and other data to lobbyists, who used the details to rally firearm owners to elect pro-gun politicians.

Not being even vaguely sarcastic:

At some point, a journalist needs to ask Johnson “you regularly claim you have no idea what your own government is doing. If we take you at your word, how are you so poorly informed, and do you this level of ignorance should disqualify you as speaker?”

Collective ignorance fuels manipulation; collective knowledge enables democracy.

On this date, Matthew Shephard died 27 years ago. He was beaten, tortured, and left for dead on fence for being gay. Please keep him and his wonderful mother Judy in your thoughts. And let's all work for a world where such horrific things do not happen to anyone. ❤️🏳️‍🌈

If I’m never going to be acceptable, I might as well be honest.
If my voice makes them uncomfortable, maybe that’s proof it still matters.

They keep raising the bar so people like me stay quiet.
But silence never earned anyone freedom.

I’m going to air my opinion—because I’m never going to meet their expectations anyway.

Empires fear pluralism’s autonomy, not chaos. When people act morally from within, they defy guilt, myth, and hierarchy—threatening authoritarian control. That’s why religion preaches obedience.

Hot take: What might actually save America from dictatorship isn’t the Constitution.
It’s that Americans are loud, obnoxious jerks with guns—and authoritarians can’t control noise that refuses to shut up.

Americans haven’t read Lysistrata, and it shows.

The healthiest relationship Donald Trump has ever had appears to have been with Jeffrey Epstein.

What if this isn’t how the world has to be?

The center isn’t a buffer—it’s the broker.

It’s the polished lobby where extremism gets its makeover,
where pundits iron the wrinkles out of tyranny,
where fascism gets fitted for a suit and called bipartisan.

Theocrats baptize control.
Technocrats code it clean.
Obedience gets called peace—so long as you’re not the one erased.
The empire never ended.
It just got WiFi.

Every society contains both intercession and indifference, hospitality and harm. What endures is the vigilance to choose rightly, even in the face of annihilation.

Survival and transformation require forward movement. Clinging to a decaying past—whether political, cultural, or personal—can render one inert in the face of new realities.

Societies that consistently dehumanize will ultimately self-destruct—not by divine fiat, but as a natural entropy of injustice.
