Empath, seeking to understand from reliable sources. Boggled at the state we’re in. Cautiously optimistic but occasionally nihilistic about our future.

FINALLY, a Tennessee outlet (@wbir) covers what we mentioned — @MarshaBlackburn credited Trump for @SchneiderElec’s investment in Mt. Juliet spurred by Biden’s laws, announced during his term.

This isn’t “causing confusion” - she lied and should retract. www.wbir.com/article/news...

Where do those who love Trump for his bias toward action, good or bad get the idea that Biden did nothing? Biden’s administration was one of, if not the the most productive in my lifetime. Is it the media? Blinded by hate for dems? Cult? Stupidity? Being uninformed? I really want to understand.

How awesome is it that a Strong, Eloquent, Black man is going to wipe that racist, Dixiecrat Storm Thurmond’s longest speech record!

Mad Cred to Corey Booker! It takes some stamina and dedication to do what he’s doing. Agree with him or not, he’s shown how much he loves this country. God bless him!

Last month, Sen. Deb Fischer's (R-NE) husband refused to shake the Vice President's hand.

Yesterday, he tried to shake Doug Emhoff's hand. The Second Gentleman replied: "Why would you try to shake my hand when you wouldn’t shake my wife’s hand?”

REPOST if you love Doug Emhoff!

earlier today I saw this video of Mavis Staples at the White House wearing her Kennedy Center Honors ribbon, strolling by the WH band playing "I'll Take You There," so she starts singing it. And it was the most beautiful thing.

Every time I read about banning books, I think of this:

Reading a book with a gay character will not make you gay any more than reading a book about Einstein will make you a genius.
If you're afraid that books might change someone's thinking, you're not afraid of books — you're afraid of thinking.

The trickle-down myth is deeply embedded in the American psyche and it’s beyond time to excise it.

Did you know BlueSky only has 20 employees?

We would like to say a huge THANK YOU to those 20 warriors (who are working 24/7 to keep up with the incredible growth) for giving us a space to share.

We escaped hell to be here.

Thank you, @bsky.app & Jay Graber CEO (not a billionaire)
