Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.

bankout wagons spill loose grain,
House Sparrows feasting.

Like a school of fish,
Murmuration of Starlings,
Swirling with one mind.

Cold spiced peaches
bring memories of childhood,

I’ve posted this video on socialism for years and there were mild heart attacks on Twitter, somehow I think people will be more amenable now.

Last night was the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops.

I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III.

Remind you of anyone?

80 years ago, Dietrich Bonhoeffer was hung by the Nazis, just one month before the end of WWII. He was safe in the United States but went back to Germany in 1938 saying, "The people need me."
And "To stay silent in the face of evil, is in fact, evil."

Your Number For The Day: 0

That's how many police officers were attacked and injured with millions of people protesting on Saturday.

See how much better it goes with no MAGAts involved?
They are not the same.

Found it hard to locate podcasts. Substack chat talked some nonsense about "add podcast feed" that I couldn't find. Support was nonexistant. Considering a refund before it's too late to get my money back.
