We passed that particular tipping point well before SCOTUS "legislated" "Citizens United". Perhaps when Bubba rescinded Glass-Steagall as that scumbag neo-liberal stole out of office in '99?

So ... what's your point?
I can't honestly name a single person that doesn't look good when the comparison is Trump.
Need I go further?
Ok. Fuck neo-liberals. Fuck the Democratic party. They abandoned the working class and betrayed us!
Build unions!!!! Organize! Start again! Unions are strength!

We have arrived at a point where your loyalty needs must be to your convictions ... exclusively.
The Democratic Party has abandoned and betrayed the working class begining in '94 with NAFTA.
I'm sure Kamala is a lovely person. She lacked the courage to stand against genocide.
She's not our leader

It's sad that things are such that you even find it necessary to make that statement.
I had the privilege of supervising Mexican green card entrant men on big union jobs in LA in the 90s.
They invited me to their homes in Mexico, and that experience enriched my life and expanded my understanding.

It is being said that preventing "jury nullification" will be a hard spot for the prosecutor.

Wow. Just wow. I really wish these actors would resolve to conduct themselves in such a manner as to not interfere with my enjoyment of their professional talents. I don't wanna know from their personal anything. Zip. Nada.

I don't know about favorite, but I just this morning baked up the last two sheets of chewy molasses cookies from a batch I made midweek. And they are worth the effort!

What I've gleaned about toxicity, PFAs, endocrine disruptors, and decreasing sperm counts the population problem is fixing itself by 12 years from now, and fixed 36 years from now.
If we don't stop burning fossil fuels the rest of us will all be dead by then.☠️
Can you say exponential?
Then AI?😵💫

Pretty sure if you get to be a billionaire in your 20s it is against the rules to even have a mid-life event of any sort.

We can either stop burning fossil fuels, or we can all die.

Heard that Netanyahu had been granted special dispensation to avoid arrest in Poland as a perpetrator of genocide while he visits Auschwitz. Need I say it? Irony abounds. There I've said it.

Really like this close up shot! Got me wondering if I could do it justice in acrylics, or maybe colored pens.

Great post! I don't really care for Robert Reich, but I am usually coming across his posts as an economist, which he sucks at.
What a great article. New respect for him. Pretty much tied a bow on it for us, huh? I have a special place in my heart for California.

Good post. It is disgusting huh? These immoral degenerates are our fellow citizens. Yet seem unrecognizable. Beyond comprehension. Makes me wonder what I could have, should have, done differently in the years leading up to this ... what feels like ... pivotal point in the "meta crisis".

Recommendation :
If you want the skinny on the gaslighting by the fossil fuel industry, recently published "The Parrot and the Igloo" by David Lipsky is well worth your time and money.

Yeah, that was odd no? I mean ... I don't recall hearing about anyone even being aware that it hadn't been released, much less clamouring for its release.
Makes you wonder why now? What were they thinking? Who assigned the task? 🤔

I can't get the images out of my head from last summer in Southern Mexico, the howler monkeys losing consciousness and falling out of the trees because of the heat. And of course dying after hitting the ground.

Late stage predatory capitalism.
Sheldon Wolin or Chris Hedges would tell you that failing empires vomit up sick fascists as populist leaders
Yes there are millions of twisted fucks out there. But that is the state of this deteriorating society.
It doesn't require a conspiracy. There is no they.
