I guess I’m an alright human. Union organizer for public educators and school employees. The Whoniverse is my happy place.

Always try to be nice, but never fail to be kind.
Authoritarianism takes a while to build speed, but once you open the door it moves as fast as a toddler chasing a puppy. Its dizzying and i have lost all empathy for Trump supporters.

I'm seriously pissed @joyannreid.bsky.social is losing her show. There is no reason for this. No offence to the @theweekendmsnbc.bsky.social hosts, I was even planning to start DVRing their show, but it is possible to give them a better time slot without taking away her’s. So angry.

I don't understand why our country refuses to play the tape through before making decisions. Or at least listen to the people that do. How can you not see this coming? We've reached the peak. Fascism moves real fast when you officially let it in.

Well, I'm here now. I tend to be a lurker and still a bit hesitant to interact on a forum like this because of that other place. But, I will give it a try. Like ELO says “Hello Mr Bluesky”

Being a person with deadly, incurable cancer who is nonetheless still alive for an indefinite timeframe gives me an interesting metaphor that helps me deal with things like large-scale corruption in government or commerce.

Bear with me for a second while I try to explain.

BREAKING: California's Senate just passed a bill to extend unemployment benefits to workers who’ve been on strike for more than two weeks.

This would cover the writers and actors picketing Hollywood studios, and thousands more.

The bill now heads to Gov. Gavin Newsom’s desk.
