Drama geek, happily married to a fellow theater nut. Created two amazing humans. Just let people alone, take care of the environment and have some empathy, it’s easy. Oh and MAGA sucks
The rich get richer and make the rest of us miserable
Leading American companies — including Palantir, Deloitte, and private prison giant GEO Group — raked in over $22B from ICE and CBP contracts last year.
Do not forget who is profiting from cruelty and human suffering.

1. As an American, should I start squirrling away Canadian money.
2. Should I learn to speak Russian.

Last night I dumped FB. It was weird as if I had cut off an arm or something. Freeing myself from a little bit of tyranny feels good. Happy MLK Day everyone, let’s make it count. Do one thing today that frees you from the billionaire umbilical cords that starve us of our humanity.

I was hoping after seeing the reaction of the generals at that stupid Hegseth Trump meeting that there would be some saviors. What happened? Did they all go chicken? They dont really believe the tenants of the Constitution? What about “enemies foreign and domestic”part do they just not believe it?

Renée Good is one of at least nine people across the country who have been shot by immigration agents since September. There is something every case has in common:
Everyone was in a vehicle at the time of the shooting.

Cops are taught not to shoot into cars. ICE keeps doing it anyway.

None of us do. I don’t want them going towards drilling oil wells in Venezuela either.

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.
I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

We had about 400 folks at the vigil for Renee and all others harmed by ICE. It was good to be with loving caring humans.

Every blue state should adopt this approach as a model for those living in red states, a clear demonstration that taxing billionaires can fund a better quality of life. It might even inspire voters elsewhere to elect leaders with the courage to do the same.

Why do ChristianNationalists in particular detest creative and new or different? They want everyone to like what they like, dress the way they dress, worship their hateful god, and even use the same fucking font. Oh.. never mind, it’s about control isn’t it.
