Feeling hope for the first time in a while

So excited for a blue sweep. We needed this as a country for hope for the rest of us.

Don't forget to vote! Smaller elections have a bigger impact on your day to day!

I know she said there are many roles and many players on the field. But we need a leader on that field too. Someone who is telling her campaign promises as the way for the party to coalesce into the party's promises. (3)

Is a talking. I would like Harris to go out and say "I told you so". I want to see her giving weekly (at the very least) updates. If she wants to run again she needs to start now. She needs to promise to hold our hand through this and provide leadership. (2)

Just finished watching @weeklyshowpodcast.bsky.social with @kamalaharris.com. Really enjoyed the interview. I particularly enjoyed when Harris got real about her feelings and was inclusive to the members of her party. What I would really like to see besides a book tour and the listening (1)

It's not a moral failure to be on SNAP. There is no morality to you receiving SNAP. It is a moral failure to take SNAP benefits away for your political whims

Don't worry about making it the best holiday season. In fact it might be better to tone it down a lot. Billionaires make a lot this time of year and us keeping low key is a good way to fight back

The recommendations for food budgeting is for the new poor. Those who have been poor for a long time already know. But it's news to a lot of people they are poor now.

Some people who are living in nice cars had jobs at the beginning of the year. Jobs and food are getting harder to come by. Stop judging people for needing help

It was never about the hostages. No aid coming in. No real ceasefire.

Acting, singing, dancing, and public speaking are all part of the Mormon brand. I honestly miss some of it but not the church part. But I would love to sing in a choir again.

As an ex-Mormon I'll tell you it's because it was expected while we were in. However, there is a lot of baggage about it. While we were taught how to be good friends, a lot of our experience is fake relationships while we are in. So skills acquired and now used authentically is freeing

Spoke with an addict this week. We were discussing the different treatment types around the world and their effectiveness. They sneered at the plans. Why? Turns out they don't want help they don't want anyone to have it.
This shocked me. If I don't want it you can't have it now the american way.

It's always yt males who are kids, or have a future, or didn't know any better. The girls of this world are women as soon as a man finds them sexy. The Black boys of this world are men as soon as white men find them threatening. The brown people of the world are terrorists the moment they are born.

No one makes good decisions when hate is the base of those decisions. The loneliness epidemic is a hate epidemic. Stop hating your neighbors and you might find some friends

This is giving me the joy I need for today. People keep using whimsy for painting their living room a color. I want true whimsy and this is it

CDC has been cleared out. And I just feel like everyday this country just gets sicker and poorer and more hateful. It hasn't even been a year

The only people who get free healthcare in this country are the people who say you can't have healthcare

Want to know something you can do this week? Shop and be in the neighborhoods that are being targeted. Get some food maybe some early holiday shopping etc. Spend money where people need it. Be a neighbor

Please be aware that Gaza isn't all of Palestine. Apartheid and violence is escalating in the West Bank.

I don't believe that this is peace keeping. It may start out that way but it won't end that way. I hope I'm wrong

Gesturing wildly at everything, while wondering if I missed something

Live Updates: Israel and Hamas Reach Deal on Hostage Release and Troop Pullback

This is not the first time Hamas has agreed to return the hostages. Each time Israel violates the peace agreement. I'm as hopeful about this as every other negotiation they've had

This is a perfect picture of what Christian nationalism has done to the church

Illinois speaking the truth and the power wants to quiet that truth

Protest now while it's still legal No Kings 10.18

Trump looking to invoke the Insurrection Act in Chicago. Chicago please stay safe.

Federal workers not receiving back pay is just another way to crumble the infrastructure

I can be happy for billionaires getting married when all the other stuff is taken care of.
