I’m sure it’s just my TDS, but I think Trump is proving to be exactly as bad as we said he was going to be and people who acted like we were hysterical should be embarrassed they didn’t do more to try and stop it.

As governor of Illinois, I’ve made it my mission to make our state the best to call home including for our LGBTQ+ community. No matter who you are or who you love, everyone deserves dignity and equality. Hate has no home here.

Conspiracist RFK, Jr at HHS + U.S. withdrawal from WHO, + ending global health prgms of USAID will set global health back 50 years & will make us way more vulnerable to the impact of the next terrible pandemic. Is this what we wanted for America & the world in the first quarter of the 21st Century?

We are so inundated with hourly craziness coming from the Trump-Musk White House that it is easy to get disoriented and paralyzed so that we don’t resist. But enough feeling disempowered! Time to get up and fight back.

We will have victories and setbacks, good days and bad. We must understand that this will not be over in one election or with the defeat of any one candidate. This is the fight of our generation, and it will take time. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/10-t...

So with all that we know about Mr. Kennedy’s truly outlandish ideas, it’s particularly surprising that we have heard nary a word from the American Medical Association and other major medical organizations that should be strongly and publicly opposing Mr. Kennedy’s nomination.

I think something we don't appreciate enough as a society is that for the majority of human history hearing a particular piece of music was only possible if you could find someone in a public place/event playing it, owned an instrument/knew it yourself, or were rich and could employ a musician.

I wish we could cultivate a culture where people get excited about and share the new skills they've learned more than the new stuff they've bought.
