Curious about our universe. Worked in music and audio most of my life and it's been a good one. Hope to do my part to leave the world a bit better than when I came into it, especially for those who have not been as fortunate.

Sen Cory Booker, just beat Strom Thurmon who tried to stop the Civil Rights act.

Booker is fighting for freedom and opportunity for all.

Next time you spend 24 hours on your feet preaching hard truths you will earn the right to complain about Democrats. Until then, STFU and get off your ass.

The "large scale social deception" contract Musk is conspiracizing about was:

* first awarded under Trump
* paid to Reuters' data division, not the newsroom
* for researching *defenses* against deception
* not revealed by "DOGE investigations" and was a public record, visible online for many years

This is a room where we turn very modest salaries and budgets (and lots of coffee) into new knowledge, life-saving innovations, and technology that feeds business growth.

It's literally the loom that spins hay into gold but these numpties are suddenly worried about the cost of hay.

Now that Google has dumped “Do No Harm” in favor of “let’s see what Trump’s rectum tastes like” I’ve removed every Google app from all of my devices.

Will this do anything? Not unless I can get hundreds of thousands of others to join me. There ARE alternatives. Let’s Walk the Walk. NOW!

Get Involved with the States Project.

YES WE CAN fight back, but simply complaining and worrying won't do it. That is like "thoughts and prayers" after a mass shooting. Nice though...does not do much in the real world.
As our own Simone Leiro told @19thnews.bsky.social, the election results are proof that we must invest in and focus on building power in state legislatures — that’s where we can help protect millions of Americans from the worst impacts of a second Trump presidency.
Democrats look to state legislatures as their anti-Trump ‘firewall’
In an otherwise disappointing election year, Democrats’ wins in state legislatures were a bright spot.

"The States Project" is a great way to get involved on a local level to fight for freedom and opportunity for all. Not the White House, or the House or the Senate, but in state houses and governorships.

This is my giving circle. You can start your own.
