I’m not in much of a surrendering mood.

Okay, now I’m getting young women followers who are flaunting their wares. TFG voters? You’re knocking on the wrong door, Kids.

My heart hurts. I know that 100 is a ripe old age and he was in poor health, but I feel like an orphan. He was one of the few really good people to lead our country. RIP, President Jimmy Carter.

They insist on following and have no bio on their account…. Why? Catfisher, troll, socially clumsy? Then they DM you. Nope.

I am going to do Xmas if it kills me. The midwinter festival, the solstice, the decorations, the family time, have all been special to me in the past up until now. Going through the motions here, fake it ‘til I make it.

A viral Bluesky thread introduced tens of thousands around the world to a first glimpse of a forthcoming biography of Elon Musk. Here—in a single essay—is some of what the world just learned.

I don’t follow strangers with no activity or personal profile information. No means no.

People, please! I don’t DM with people I don’t know! No offense but I have learned to be cautious.

I really don’t have any interest in following people who are either promoting their product/service/great new idea (!) or idiots posing as celebrities. I like dogs. 😁

Part 2
The primary function of propaganda is to disable critical thinking functions. For example, the cynical line about politicians, “They all lie” is propaganda that gives people permission to suspend critical thought about political speech and accept whatever triggers an emotional reaction.

From Charles Arnold

CRITICAL THINKING AND PROPAGANDA

Critical thinking is not an “art”. It is a skill that is quite easy to learn, and you can improve it by practice, like any other skill. And like any other skill, it requires effort.

Okay, I am seeing too many panic posts. I may have added to them. We can’t leave the country so we are going to have to make the best of things. I’m girding my loins rather than backing away. I guess I was under the mistaken notion that old people can’t handle stress. I’m finding out we can.

I went to Obama's inauguration and NOT at trumps BUT I had tickets!
Go to you Senator's website and order your tickets now. They hold them for you at their office in DC until the last minute. On Inauguration Day sit back and watch a movie.

Remember: fascism thrives on apathy.

The autocrats want you to tune out. They want to overwhelm you. They want you to give up.

Don’t give them want they want.

Stay in this fight. Remain vigilant. And let’s keep building.
