The United States is at its weakest on the world stage since WW2
our allies see us as unstable, our enemies see us as vulnerable. We have some of the biggest conflicts in recent memory raging in the Middle East and Europe.
The solution posed by Trump?
Capitulate to strongmen in Israel and Russia

Astrological panels at Wightwick Manor 1887-1893. The manor house is a wonderful example of the influence of William Morris and the Arts and Craft Movement.

I guess nobody cared but it's still kind of weird that half of Trump's coalition thinks they're doing Peronism and the other half thinks they're doing shock therapy.

The main reason I was and still am fond of Beto is that despite not being the most left-wing (e.g. public option over M4A) he gave a full-throated defense of social liberalism. Even when running for TX-GOV in 2022 he spoke out for trans kids and cooked dinner for the family of one on Mother's Day.

The Yongle Palace Murals in Shanxi Province are a pinnacle of Chinese mural art, featuring intricate portrayals of Daoist deities and Yuan Dynasty daily life. Construction of the Daoist temple began in 1247 to honor Lu Dongbin and took 110 years to complete.

In Chinese #folklore, the Female Tree(女樹) is a tree on the Silver Mountain in the sea that gives birth to a baby each dawn. This child can walk at sunrise, reaches adulthood by noon, ages by sunset, and dies at dusk, repeating this cycle day after day.

A 1976 article in the Los Angeles Advocate detailing how Democratic and Republican candidates are on gay rights issues. It identifies most anti-gay candidate as not George Wallace or Ronald Reagan, but Senator Henry "Scoop" Jackson (D-WA), while the most liberal is former Senator Fred Harris (D-OK).

On this TDOV please remember my girlfriend Eden Knight, who took her own life after being coerced into being taken back to Saudi Arabia where her parents forcibly detransitioned her. Not a day goes by without you in my mind or heart. I love and I miss you so dearly. I wish I could hear you again. 🔆

I cannot and will not demand that Sarah McBride offer herself up as a Sumneresque martyr, but may God damn any cowardly hypocrite in that building who would dare call themselves a Democrat and refuse to stand by her side as Ocasio-Cortez, Beyer, and Fetterman have done
"If a woman doesn't look woman enough to a Republican, they want to be able to inspect your genitals to use a bathroom? It's disgusting.
Everyone should reject it completely... they're endangering women, they're endangering girls of all kind, and everyone should reject it. It's gross." - AOC
