How a family in the UK sees what’s happening in the US more clearly than so many US citizens. I love these people.

Violence only gives the opposition the excuse to respond with violence.
So I encourage resistance to authority but not outright violence unless you are defending your life. I don't think it will take very much for the orange turd to declare martial law especially prior to the 2026 midterm elections but I will not go quietly.

Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024.
This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500.
Remember this before you order your next pumpkin spice latte.

Tr*mp must really be pissed at the US for his 2020 loss. It isn’t that he is just putting incompetent people in important positions, he is putting in place and making decisions that actively hurt the country and citizens. It’s active harm, not incidental harm. #47 #8647 #foxdeltatango

P47 has virtually emptied the national parks. Few/no staff means dirty facilities and park areas. People don’t want to go to dirty parks. No one is left. When P47 invites his buddies in the coal, oil, timber, whatever industries to do their worst, there will be no one to see it.

Does anyone out there need a cybersecurity technical writer? Science writer/editor? Copy editor? Full time, part time, hire, contract, gig. Sending this out into the interwebz has to be at least as effective as using LinkedIn. 😁

I am putting this out to the universe. I have been unemployed for a while and have run out of money. Still job hunting, waiting on a couple of recruiters, but still out of money. So I started a GoFundMe. If you can help--even just by sharing this link, I would be unutterly grateful. bit.ly/3Z8nrLR

Trump Orders DOJ And Pentagon To Draft Plan To Use Military Against American Citizens
Donald Trump signed an executive order this week directing the attorney general, Pam Bondi, and Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth, to work together to come up with a plan to legally use the US military on US soil against US citizens. We have officially entered a new era of US history, and our own military is going to be used against us in some capacity - Trump was a little vague about the details in his order, but there is no good scenario where American troops could be used on American soil. Farron Cousins explains what's happening.

Remember tomorrow that the origins of Thanksgiving- as a truly national holiday- came from the work of Sarah Hale and Abraham Lincoln. A nation gave thanks to God as it mourned the Union dead and prayed for the defeat of the Confederacy by either changing rebel minds or bringing them to submission.

Until abortion is legal in every state, lets require men to get a mandatory vasectomy until they are proven emotionally mature, financially responsible and ready to be a father.
Wait, what do you mean regulations on men's bodies make you uncomfortable?
