Politics doesn't interest you? Why? Because you have no interest in changing a world that serves you.

Just 8 - 10ish hours and I am ready for the day!

That is both messed up and disgraceful! You can’t just delete history! Arlington National Cemetery has removed information about prominent Black, Hispanic, and female service members, as well as topics such as the Civil War, from its website.

I couldn't say no to these tulips; they look like a sunrise

Thanks to everyone who participated nationwide!

Bullies always give off the same energy.

The guys doing the nazi salutes and banning books are the bad guys. Weird to have to point that out

Washington Post owner Jeff Bezos's changes to the opinion pages have led subscribers to cancel in droves. It's the third wave of mass cancellations at the Post in just a few months.
