It was good to know I am not alone in seeing past the illusions to realize: Forcing humans to compete against each other for survival is a bad deal for all of us. Even Stephen King knows that ("The Long Walk" 👍). And George Monbiot.

This is not negotiable, but sadly, too many think it is.
We can disagree and still love each other unless your disagreement is rooted in my oppression and denial of my humanity and right to exist.” ― James Baldwin

Here is a Reuters photo that shows just how stupidly petty Trump is. Apparently the plaques below are full of Trump rantings of Biden and Obama, similar to what you would find in his Truth Social posts. This is now in OUR White House. The cowardice is so pathetic.

Why are certain typical Dem constituencies (like Hispanic or Black voters) trending towards Trump support? Because sadly there is never any limit of humans or human societies that in moments of existential terror, aren’t willing to drown others to save themselves.

Southwest is sued for retaliating against employees for using company-provided benefits. Then responds to the lawsuit by threatening to take away those “generous” benefits they sued employees for taking. 🤦‍♀️

So...Trump tore up the Rose Garden to build a....food court??Buzzfeed showed some interesting before and afters.

Success?? Read the titles: "..funding has been restored." Read the article: "less than 5% of funding has been restored." Funding has been restored means 💯 %. EVERY SINGLE DOLLAR. Not some paltry portion. This isn't being handed a success. This is being tossed a scrap.

"Those who hate become hateful...".
Awareness of how and why we do, though, is what we need. Not more HATE. Here is the best explanation I have found online so far that explains why we humans do, and how and why we can learn to do something else. ☮️

The GOP's "Biden crime family" deflection is like blathering on about a flake of soot while the giant sequoia behind you is engulfed in flames.

Here's the webpage put up by the office of Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes for people to notify her office if they're havig problems dealing with Social Security.

Every state AG's office could do this. Might help.

Is Social Security rife with fraud? No. The SSA IG audited the disbursement of SSA benefits for the 7 years between 2015 to 2022. They found less than 1% of improper payments, $71.8 billion out of total payments of $8.6 trillion, with most of that going to living people as overpayments.

Donald Trump is seriously mentally ill. This is not a euphemism. This is a diagnosis.

Zelensky is a far better leader than Trump could ever hope to be. He shows continually he puts his people before himself.
The NYT article blaming Zelensky for annoying Trump was wrongheaded and I thought it needed a response.

The driver of too many in the COMFORTABLE LIES shop is Cognitive Dissonance. We can laugh, but it is fear & it hurts. It will not kill us, however, so go bravely my friends. You can't fight illusions (which is why we are losing). But to fight reality, we must let go of fear...

Happy Birthday President Abraham Lincoln. So sorry for screwing up the country. Not enough citizens did their homework in "how to spot a dictator" and failed the test. Maybe we can bring it back somehow....not sure, though. DMK
