No Man Is an Island
No man is an island, Entire of itself;
Every man is a piece of the continent, A part of the main.
If a clod be washed away by the sea,
Europe is the less,
As well as if a promontory were:
As well as if a manor of thy friend's Or of thine own were.
Any man's death diminishes me,
Because I am involved in mankind.
And therefore never send to know for whom the bell
tolls;
It tolls for thee.

Worth Repeating:
1) Vaccines save lives.
2) Homeopathy is a scam.
3) Astrology is a hoax.
4) Magic isn't real.
5) Psychics are frauds.
6) Prayer doesn't work. (#4)
7) Yoga can't cure cancer.
8) Climate change is real.
9) β€œChemtrails” = ice crystals.
10) The earth is not flat.

If we want a healthier society, we need to provide for the most vulnerable

We need to stop treating those with disabilities as expendable

We need to fight for universal healthcare, basic income, childcare, education, clean water & affordable housing

We need to realize we’re all in this together

Watching the markets bounce around every time Trump does or undoes some tariff implies that investors believe the most recent thing that Trump said will be the new operating normal, which reinforces my long held suspicion that people are stupid

For eg - try out the line "Oh yeah but the LNP will campaign against this in 2028" with respect to any policy.

Does that scare you? Why?

"News.corp will run a scare campaign"

And??? They do that everytime.

Leave them to wallow in their own feculence.

Just wondering what you all think the next Pope’s name should be.
I know it will probably be something traditional like a John or a Paul.
But I hope for a break from tradition like Francis did.

My choice? Pope Vincent. Because a patron of charity would be a good thing.

What do you think?

Thank you to all who write the truth boldly and aren't afraid of offending people. Society is crumbling all around us. It's not a time to be nice or likable.
The most kind and loving thing we can do is speak the truth.

Speak. Even if your voice shakes.

We cannot go silent onto the dark.
