My uncle died in World War II in an accident when the plane he was on took off and a bomb rolled out of the net it was stored in. The flights they were scheduled for didn't make it to Jimmy Doolittle's raids. My uncle is buried with his crew members in a mass grave in Keokuk, Iowa. Enlisted 1941.

May right-wingers always find the shoe on the other foot FROM NOW ON. They have given the rest of us enough misery for them to have grief for the remainder of their selfish lives.

The fact is that over the decades we got careless and too many people get away with not being educated in the basics of preserving a democracy.

I used to read all your comments on twitter (now "X"), Stephen. But I cancelled X and now I don't think I'm seeing all your commentary on BlueSky. Please keep us up to date on here...

My naughty cat grazes on trees! How do I know this? I had an avocado tree growing in my kitchen window, and he ate the leaves right off the top of it!
