Hi friends. I want to stay in touch with the many friends I have on Facebook but with just their postings and not the host of bs that Facebook hangs on everything. This is where I'll do that.

A real president does this.

Thank you to every veteran who’s worn the uniform and carried the weight for the rest of us — just respect 🇺🇸

A meaningful Veterans Day to you all. I want to live a life worth their sacrifice.

Are we keeping you up, Mr President?

Republicans are using the hungry as human shields. Sounds familiar.

Hamas, that's it. How inspired.

I'm gonna publicly wrap my head around this: a provincial TV add out of Canada, which I would have never seen, annoys Trump and he makes national news out of it with a tantrum and it provokes me to find the ad, watch it, and then research Reagan's view on tariffs.

Until the torches and the pitchforks unite, the king is going stand in the castle and feed them things to fight about. *He* is the threat.

Trump is the Eldritch Vapor of modern times (Beyond Zork). He steals our belongings and litters them about the kingdom, and when he has taken everything, he steals our very souls.

He needs our support to continue. Do not be fooled. He stands for no one but himself. Do not buy his bullshit.

Diversity is our strength, no matter what racist, bigoted Republicans say.

Real Americans embrace diversity, equity and inclusion.

Real Americans reject Trump and his white nationalist cronies.

Trump is bad, project 2025 is bad and the people who love America, the real patriots reject both.

Just a shout out to all the blow up creatures who faced off ICE lately.

I get hope, strength, and a little mirth from you all.

You rock.

Live strong everybody. I love you.

No Mike, I don't "hate America," you asshole. Nor do the people you've buffaloed with your bullshit - they are my brethren, even as we disagree.

You are the crass hater.

I remember as a boy this snippet of memory: my mother "Hitler had a tiny penis". I have no idea the context, just this indelible burn into my mind. I will never forget.

I'm reminded of this memory as I chuckle at this cover - this tiny hand wielding little more than buttons, but of destruction.

From President Lyndon B. Johnson to the Smothers Brothers, who had a popular, bold, and very funny political satire TV show in the late '60s. I'm old enough to remember it.

They regularly skewered Johnson (Vietnam War era), and for all his faults, was elegant enough to respond thus.

Pritzker: To the members of the press who are assembled here today and listening across the country, I am asking for your courage to tell it like it is. This is not a time to pretend here that there are two sides to this story.

I wanted to say -

“Clapping on the red carpet like a stupid bitch so Putin can throatf*ck him in that sweet tight neck p*ssy of his.”

- but I wasn’t sure if it would be appropriate.

I guess I’m learning to speak up!
