Monday is coming...
Not just any Monday.
Inauguration Day...
Not just any Inauguration Day.
Martin Luther King Day...
Not just any MLK Day.
January 20, 2025...
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
Slouches towards Washington to be inaugurated?

A letter from Rez. The fear in Indian Country USA is real. It’s not good when tribes are comparing Trump to the genocide era. No one should have to ask: “Will I need a passport to leave the reservation?” - an actual question tribal admin is dealing with now.

Vance broke the 50-50 tie?! I feel like I'm living in a dystopian novel about an ideological civil war (and i feel like i need the services of my favorite military hero: General Anesthesia)...

Auch ich musste diese Entscheidung treffen. Vielleicht könnten die Dornen uns als Ehrenkrone dienen.

Schöne Poesie.

Erinnerungen, die in einem Meer aus Träumen versinken
An was halte ich fest, was werfe ich weg?
Der Verstand möchte die Rosen behalten, aber es waren die Dornen, die mich in die Arme der Liebe trieben.

Words in English have already been coined to describe various phenomena that are developing.

We have #oligarchy #technocracy #techno-oligarchy #spinocracy

How about this? #SASpocracy, a democracy where the Short Attention Span of voters enables tech control.

SCOTUS has upheld the efforts of the US government to stop a foreign adversary from gathering private data on US citizens.

Q: Why did the US government want to stop that?

A: They were jealous.

The real luxuries in life (continued):

...listening to birds
watching butterflies
taking a long relaxing bath

...doing all three at once?
Someone shared this with me, and I think it's beautiful. That's what I wish for everyone I love and appreciate in this New Year 2025, that your life is filled with an abundance of real luxuries. ❤️
