Can’t emphasize this enough: if you’re feeling overwhelmed by the debased assault on our country, the antidote is connecting with other people in the flesh who are feeling the same way. There are millions of us.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.

Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

It's totally fucking NUTS that we went 16 years without airline fatalities, and less than 2 weeks into trump's presidency we have planes crashing and falling out of the sky.

All while they're forcing top FAA and FBI folks to resign.

Nothing to see here, right? 🙄

So tragic…condolences to all who were affected by this horrific collision
➡️ January 20: FAA director fired
➡️ January 21: Air Traffic Controller hiring frozen
➡️ January 22: Aviation Safety Advisory Committee disbanded
➡️ January 28: Buyout/retirement demand sent to existing employees
➡️ January 29: First American mid-air collision in 16 years

Making America Great Again!

Weird that we have to say this, but the government doesn’t get to decide what gender a person is.

This morning was a rude awakening.

My eyes opened and my mind quickly began to assemble the first few seconds of my day when a terrible interruption broke in and I remembered:

Yes, that unhinged madman is actually our President again.

A convicted felon will be sworn in as the 47th President of the United States of America.

Ugh.

If your church is preaching hate or anything other than love in the name of God, it’s time to find another church #Godislove

Truth be told, it does seem kind of silly to have the FBI do background checks on presidential appointees when the president is a convicted criminal and an adjudicated digital rapist.

You owe an apology to every child who has to spend their formative years in an America defined by:
fear of the other,
an epidemic of cruelty,
a poverty of decency,
a deadly allergy to facts,
a Christianity of malice,
a defiant resistance to diversity.

A frustrating thing for me right now is the media narrative that RFK Jr is just an “anti-vaxxer” when he has said so many crazy things about other stuff over the years. We compiled 10 nutty clips on various topics, which still barely scratches the surface. open.substack.com/pub/meidasto...
