Socialism is what they called public power.
Socialism is what they called social security.
Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.
Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

Rewarding a dictator-aggressor always leads to another war. One that is usually even worse.

Probably my favorite image from the aurora last week. Shot in Duluth, Minnesota. Someone told me it looks like a stoplight in the sky, and now I can't unsee it.

Remember: The oligarchs who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us so they can become more powerful.
They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see where all the wealth and power have gone.
Don't fall for it.

This miniature quilt (~18 x 18) was made by Cassandra Beaver from Urbana, Ohio. She made this quilt in 2019 and named it "Converging Curves."
Check out how smooth those arcs are.
I'm impressed.

He’s a disgusting “human being,” brainless, shuffling, evil and on his way to roasting in hell. He’s weak, selfish, a coward, incredibly ugly, classless, odoriferous, an SOB, and monumentally stupid. He’s also on the fast track to Death’s door. Not soon enough though. And I’m sugar-coating it.🤬

I've been busy in the evenings knitting a scarf for my mother-in-law. The pattern is called Midwest Moonlight and it is knit in Green Mountain Spinnery's Cotton Comfort in Iris, which is a wool-cotton blend. I'm currently about a third of the way done and need to hustle to get it done!🧶
