I'm going to try and communicate with my Republican colleagues in a new way.

The outcome of violent revolutions is very hard to predict or control. Be careful what you wish for. Non-violent revolution is the way to start, and keep riding it until there’s no other choice.

Francisco picks oranges in Maricopa, a long 93 mile drive from his home in Porterville, CA. He earns $25 dollars per bin and fills 4 bins in 6 hours, which he believes is not a fair wage. #WeFeedYou

They probly taste pretty crappy. I’d settle for taxation. They better figure that out soon though, or people will be fighting over the drumsticks.

There was minimal police presence in Seattle but they were friendly, sporting β€œPOET” vests. I asked what that meant and one told me β€œpolice outreach and engagement team.” There was no threatening behavior that I could see anywhere.

Sorry, I didn’t see your previous post from Fayetteville IN. So, what happened?

Where? What city? And what happened? Was there intervention? Please don’t make statements that could be unnecessarily alarming unless you can provide some details.

Also Libby, the public library app. They have a lot of audiobooks you can borrow for 3 weeks at a time. Not as many as Audible, but hey, free, with no contract. Support your public library!

At least a dozen Teslas were set on fire at a Tesla dealership in Toulouse, France.

Thoughts and prayers.

Anything to sow confusion and talk out of both sides of his mouth. It’s part of his MO.

I hope there are enough institutions with the spine and resources to push back in the courts and seriously blunt these efforts. While the trmp/DOJ initiatives ate crippling, I believe they are temporary and will be overridden by history in the not too distant future. There’s gonna be pushback!

That’s been underway for years. It’s part of the reason we’re here.

It wouldn’t surprise me if he’s already bought/promised a bribe to every republican member of Congress. He’s rich enough, and they seem feckless enough.

Thirty pieces of silver, enshrined into law. Capitalism at its best. Screw your fellow citizens for profit.

Well, at least it got that one right.

This was one of the goals of the Powell Memorandum in 1971. If follows more directly from Citizens United, 2010.

Quite the opposite. Job creation should only be rewarded after proof of creating sustainable jobs with fair pay and good benefits. Enough of wealth funneling to the coffers of the uber rich.

The good guys only win in the Hollywood formula. Euro movies are different. In RL, it’s more up in the air, maybe 51:49 in Love’s favor?
