📌I lost a friend Sunday, and I'm sadder than hell about it.

📌Arnie was an honest, sturdy man, who kept pushing forward no matter what. He did things the hard way, because there was a needed grit and honesty to it.

📌Anyway ... I wrote more about him, because he was worth writing about ...

“Trump was a Trojan horse of sorts; a big, bungling cartoon character made out of salt and fat and too many pharmaceuticals to grind a cohesive thought out of his drug-addled brain.” open.substack.com/pub/noelcasl...

I imagine most folks that voted for Trump are quietly gloating about the cruelty his cuts to foreign aid are forcing upon the world.

Although Vice President Kamala Harris is directing her motivational words to young people across the country, a lot of us not so young folks need to hear this too. 🤚🏽

If we didn’t believe the US was worth saving we’d simply move on and ignore you. Believe in the you that we believe you can be, not the you they are telling you to be. Being brave doesn’t mean not being afraid, it means standing up to evil and injustice even when you are afraid.
