Stop giving your money to assholes.

Combativeness Combat (source: pexels.com) I'm in the midst of a Mars return. The red planet returns to its own position in the natal chart about once every two years. While it can have some positive effects, it's the negative effects of the transit that really get to me. Right now, I really wish the worst for anyone who has the nerve to get in my way.

It's the Billionaires, Stupid The faultline for Dems in the run to 2028 will be attitudes toward elites

There are certain commandments of American political theology that both sides have honored for years. It is time to recognize the damage they have done and break each and every one of them.

That's not fair. Some of them also fell out of high-rise windows.

Lazy and Self-Indulgent Lazy (source: pexels.com) Transiting Venus forms a trine to my natal Jupiter over the next couple of days. "Café Astrology" defines the event as follows: "Friendliness and optimism characterize this transit. You are big-hearted and your feelings are expansive. Your outlook is cheerful and hopeful and the atmosphere around you is cooperative. This is a sociable, perhaps lazy and self-indulgent, time.

At least America's enemies know where to drop the bomb now.

Valentine’s Day Preview Valentine's Day (source: pexels.com) I'm looking forward to Valentine's Day this year for a few reasons. First, my tax slips typically arrive mid-month, and I'm expecting to get a big refund this year. Next, I need to buy some new orchids for my house, and growers in this part of the world often step up their production to coincide with the holiday.

It’s time to defund the oligarchy and invest in the American people | Joseph Geevarghese and Rashida Tlaib Trump’s presidency has brought a windfall to billionaires while hurting the poor. In these conditions, democracy cannot survive

This is what America voted for and they're still too oblivious to realize it.

Brazilian influencer who defended US immigration crackdown arrested by ICE Trump supporter Júnior Pena falsely claimed migrants being rounded up, including Brazilians, were ‘all crooks’

The feelgood story of the day.

Burn it all down.

My Own Little World I published this post right around last month's full moon. I feel like I'm back in the same place again today. There's too much ugliness in the world around me, and I'm just not in the mood to see it. If anyone needs me, I'll be right here in my own little world . . .

I published this post right around last month's full moon. I feel like I'm back in the same place again today. There's too much ugliness in the world around me, and I'm just not in the mood to see it. If anyone needs me, I'll be right here in my own little world . . .

The best thing I've read since the Guardian's review of "Melania."

Losers gonna lose.

I'm watching "Power and Politics" on CBC, and it looks like these losers in Calgary are going to move forward with PP again.

Can’t believe they released the Epstein files to cover up for the Melania movie.

Burn It All Down Fire (source: pexels.com) I've got the sun conjoining my natal Mars later today, and there is definitely some "burn it all down" energy in my universe right now. For that reason, I'm going to try to take a step back from social media and the news cycle in general. I don't need to worked up over anything — especially things that I can't control.

Hey America. Fuck off.

They're just as bad. The Dunning-Kruger effect knows no borders.

Year of the Horse Horse (source: pexels.com) I just had a look at my forecast for the upcoming year of the horse that begins next week. In Chinese astrology, I'm a wood snake born during an earth cow month on a wood cow day. My lucky element according to this site is fire because I'm lacking that element in my five elements chart. The prediction for the year based on my lucky element is quite optimistic:

Year of the Snake I published this post a year ago. In retrospect, it was a terrific year because I feel as if I got back to being myself. The year of the fire horse begins next week. I'm going to look into what that is supposed to mean for me. Stay tuned for more . . .

I can tell by the "Wuthering Heights" commercial that the people who made the movie didn't really get the book.

Opportunity Knocks Door Knocker (source: pexels.com) Opportunity came knocking at my door yesterday. For the past year, I've been telling myself that I'm on the right track. I reorganized my finances, quit my full-time job, prioritized my health and wellness, and did everything else I could to make myself a happier person. Suddenly, I feel as if the universe is beginning to reward me for my efforts.

Nausea is an emotion?

I suppose that "indefinitely" was a pretty big word for them to understand.

Neptune in Aries: Part Two Garbage Dump (source: pexels.com) Yesterday, I published a post about Neptune's ingress into Aries and how that might affect the world at large. Today, I wanted to discuss how it might affect me. I was reminded that we already had a sneak peek of this transit at the end of March when Neptune first entered the sign of the ram.

The global rule of law is not collapsing – Trump is the lone problem and he can be defeated | Simon Tisdall The president’s approval ratings are plummeting and most Americans see him as an aberration. It is now up to them to curtail his despotic reign, says Guardian foreign affairs commentator Simon Tisdall

"Donald Trump is a monster, and a stupid one at that . . ."

Threads still isn't nearly as bad as X/Twitter was when I quit it, but I finally got around to deleting my account today because it's getting worse every day. Bluesky is just a better place to be.

What? Where can I watch your lip sync videos now?

Neptune in Aries Garbage Dump (source: pexels.com) Neptune makes its move into Aries tomorrow morning where I live. The "Astrodienst" monthly newsletter has the following things to say about the ingress: "The first major astrological event of the year takes place on 26 January: Neptune moves ultimately into Aries, a sign it will only leave again in 2038. This shift brings a change in the quality of time, which will be felt over the coming years.
