New England born and raised, thankfully an English emigre. Retired legal assistant. Old and tired but not yet ready for the scrap heap. Twitter was better than X. Trump sucks in every possible way.
My thoughts exactly. We have spent years trying to educate these bigoted morons using facts, history and science. They had their chance to listen and chose to ignore us.
Shhhhhh. Someone who can read might tell them what you wrote!!!

Do you use scan as you shop at Sainsburys @sainsburys.bsky.social ? If so, here's a tip to save time when checking out. NEVER pause near the razor blade display. For some reason, every time we look at, or even pause near the razor blades, our shop is flagged for a spot check. Annoying.

Be the squeaky wheel.
All you need to know about the Republican tax plan:

The wealthiest 5% would get tax breaks.

Everyone else would see crucial health care and nutrition assistance programs slashed.

Call your reps.

An entire administration set up to solve problems that only exist on right wing media
REPORTER: Why are you creating an expedited path into the country for Afrikaners but not others?

TRUMP: Because they're being killed. And we don't want to see people be killed ... it's a genocide that's taking place. Farmers are being killed. They happen to be white.

Energy & Commerce text is out. Will go through it in this thread.

tl;dr: this'd be the largest Medicaid cuts in history, kicking millions off their health insurance, leading to tens of thousands of additional deaths each year

LOTS of bad stuff in this (but the very worst policy did not make it in)

"Let's walk the path of peace together."

Statesmanship Rating: 10/10
Eighty years ago, enemies laid down their arms.

Since then, we, Europeans, have built something extraordinary: a Union of peace, democracy, and solidarity. An anchor of stability.

Our Union was born as a peace project, and it remains one today.

I have a serious question of etiquette:

Yesterday, at a non-denominational funeral, the entire congregation applauded after the eulogy was given.

Is this normal?

Water is a fundamental human right. Over the centuries, business has polluted our water resources whilst creating their own wealth. Now that resources are rare, they have the money to take control of those dwindling resources.
Trump's budget calls for a 22% cut that would hit the CDC, NIH, FEMA, EPA loan programs aimed at protecting drinking water, and much more.

All to finance giant tax cuts for the rich.

Oh and Trump is proposing a record $1 trillion military budget.

"Fiscal responsibility."

America's version of Napoleon...obsessed with maintaining a veneer of the victorious.
Veterans Day began as Armistice Day, honoring the end of World War I—then it was changed to honor ALL who served.

Now Trump wants to rename it. Reframe it. Twist it into a tribute to conquest.

Veterans don’t need rewritten history. They need respect—and the benefits they earned.

Those who control the water control the future of humanity.
'“It’s not being done with any thought about human life, it was just ‘this seems so woke so let’s get rid of it,’” Bennett said. “People think water is free and comes out of your tap whenever you want, but it’s not that simple.”'
