I didn't plan this, but fortuitously the 2025 Banned Books Week theme is "Censorship is so 1984," and the #BannedBookSkyClub October 2025 book, with discussion beginning October 9th, during Banned Books Week, is (you guessed it) 1984 by George Orwell.

Happy Pride Month this month and every month! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

We could all take a lesson from our animal companions who love and accept us no matter who we are, who we love, or where we were born.

Imagine calling yourself the master race and have to resort to erasing the achievements of minorities to make yourself feel better.

The Trump regime will arrest you in the middle of the night because you spoke your mind.

And federal agents in plain clothes who refuse to identify themselves will be the ones to do it.

If you think I'm being hyperbolic, watch this clip.

Colleague,' 'college,' 'legacy,' 'allegation,' 'relegate,' and 'delegate' all come from 'legare.' 'Legare' is a Latin verb meaning "to choose or send as a deputy or emissary" or "to bequeath."

The CFPB has:

-Returned $20B to victims of financial fraud
-Cracked down on junk fees
-Fought against politically-motivated debanking
-Protected veterans from predatory lenders
-Protected consumers' data from corporate abuse

Oligarchs want to reverse all of this.

Remember: The fundamental issue isn’t the size of the government or how to make government more “efficient.”

It’s who our government is for.

Should it work mainly for big corporations and billionaires, including the richest person in the world — or for the rest of us?

As Trump tries to dismantle the Department of Education, remember that his plan to cut the corporate tax rate to 15% would give the 100 largest corporations a tax cut larger than the entire department's K-12 budget.

Really think about how twisted this all is.

Rubio is talking deporting US CITIZENS to a prison in El Salvador if we are "perceived enemies" of Tr*mp's regime. This is 100 kinds of illegal and terrifying. THIS IS AN AUTHORITARIAN TAKEOVER of the US. This is a coup, where is the military, the citizenry, the Congress stopping this insanity??

Some kinda good news: I was at Costco yesterday and talked to a worker and he said they usually average 20 new memberships per day in their store on the weekend, but this past weekend they averaged 60 new memberships.
