Hello BlueSky! I‘m living a quiet life here in rural Southeast Georgia USA, but I’ve had a lot of wild experiences in my life, from pilot in the Vietnam conflict to living on the Oregon coast. (1)

I’m hoping to find more engagement here! This could be a viable community if we could make more personal connections. I’m not so interested in the big platform folks as I am us regular people who need support in these anxious times! The article I just posted from my friend Sonya expresses it well.

John Trudell was the leader of AIM in the 70s. He and Russell Means and Vine Deloria are among those who helped me understand the reality of America. Deloria’s _God is Red_ is a great source of understanding of the world view that could be our salvation. If only we could have listened to these guys!

Yay! Open source AI!
All the most evil nerds in tech were lying and demanding billions of your tax dollars to build worthless AI while they cozied up to Trump. A team in China made the same thing open source for free. There's no AI race its a scam. Round them up and transfer their wealth back

Rep. Tim Burchett — who was literally sued for defamation for blaming an innocent man for the Super Bowl parade shooting — rushes to share a now-deleted Clay Travis tweet to blame immigration/Biden for New Orleans, even though the suspect was a Texas-born army veteran.

Somehow, this needs to be made clear for those who saw or heard his statement…
MAGA disinformation already in high gear from Trump down.
The mass murderer in New Orleans was a U.S. Citizen who served in the United States Army. He was born and raised in Texas.
Trump will use this atrocity as an excuse to demonize immigrants because facts and reality don't matter to him.

A strong voice against this insanity of ending vaccines. More voices needed!
Just a reminder that in 2019, RFK Jr.'s anti-vaccine misinformation campaign helped cause a measles outbreak in Samoa that killed 83 people, mostly kids.
Do you really want him to lead the Department of Health and Human Services?

The polio vaccine worked so well, humans forgot polio existed — and somehow that’s the problem.

Oh, Mia… You were a dreadfully frightened little girl, enduring the unimaginable. RFK Jr. must be stopped from even coming close to wielding power over our beloved, vulnerable children. Nothing about his thoughts, decisions, or actions can be trusted. Absolutely nothing.
I had polio when i was 9. I was taken from my parents & placed in a Hospital for contageous diseases- the polio ward. I would see them once a week - thru the glass window at the end of my ward. I could not walk. It was terrifying. Kids died. Iron lungs were awful. Dont let RFK Jr ban the vaccine
