I'll take everything but the curly fries. May I substitute dark chocolate?

Bunny's big thing is candied orange peels, or ice cream dipped in dark chocolate, when she can get it. Her bae Jen loves ginger biscuits.

In the healed future of the United Communities of America, the sixteenth birthday is a huge deal because it's the first day a young person can vote as an adult.

Among the Wildcards, birthdays are always a big deal...though some people's birthdays are more about getting teased than anything.

A big part of the authoritarian playbook is war. War takes over the news. War blots out criticism. War divides a nation’s people, subjecting those against it to being called unpatriotic. War grants leaders all sorts of emergency powers. War consumes everything else.

We mustn’t let this war do so.

Trickster Prayer, by S. J. Tucker track by S. J. Tucker

Love y’all. Singing this one into the dark, which is…just getting darker, I know. It’s not much, but I love it, I love us, and it’s what I got.

I was born in an Iranian prison. My parents were held in their jails. My uncles lie in their mass graves. Nothing you can tell me about the crimes of the Iranian regime that I haven't lived in blood and bone. That doesn't mean I want my people bombed, maimed, killed, their homes in ruins. If your vision of liberation comes only through the destruction of innocent lives, then it's not freedom you're after. Sahar Delijani, Iranian author

I am pro Iranian people. I stand with them against their own government’s repression AND against the imperial violence in the form of bombs dropped from the sky from Israel & the US who have already killed hundreds.

I support neither imperialism or dictatorship.

Thanks for holding up the candle of those words in this darkness. I needed to read them today.

I hear you. Last night I sat in shock. My husband tried to reason that the country has been like this forever. I turned on him and said 'my great grandma was in an Indian school. My great grandpa was beaten the day he got off an immigrant boat. I know. But we were supposed to be better by now.'

Tell Congress: No War with Iran Trump has launched unauthorized military strikes on Iran, dragging the United States into yet another war without approval from Congress. This reckless escalation is putting U.S. servicemembers, Ameri...

Trump’s bombing of Iran is reckless and a direct threat to American and Iranian lives. Launching military strikes without congressional authorization or evidence of an imminent threat is not strength. It is an abuse of power.

Tell your Members of Congress to put an immediate stop to this war.

Excerpt, Eisenhower speech 1953, 'A Chance For Peace' Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children. The cost of one modern heavy bomber is this: a modern brick school in more than 30 cities. It is two electric power plants, each serving a town of 60,000 population. It is two fine, fully equipped hospitals. It is some 50 miles of concrete highway. We pay for a single fighter plane with a half million bushels of wheat. We pay for a single destroyer with new homes that could have housed more than 8,000 people. This, I repeat, is the best way of life to be found on the road. the world has been taking. This is not a way of life at all, in any true sense. Under the cloud of threatening war, it is humanity hanging from a cross of iron.

A great president said this. A fool in office should read it.

Well, I just read the news. Another arbitrary attack on the leader of another country. Probably another war. My mom gave 7 deployments to the last one, and it's damaged her for life. So many families experienced harm last time. My heart is heavy for all the families destined to be hurt this time.
