The U.S. is full-fledged "Evil Empire" in it's war on the Earth. (It's long been "an enemy", but now is a full-on enemy and threat like never before. It's completely patriotic for those who care about humanity and life to hang flags upside down. It's now the opposite of "Pro-Life" in total)

"The Insect is awake" in The Fly could also be Humans that are "awake to the Climate Crisis" (or "woke"?) coming alive as the "symptoms" of Climate Chaos awaken the ecological-sense so we see and feel things differently.

The only thing Trump has the capacity to grasp about the law is "what's in it for me?" , which is not exactly the stance that would enable any understanding of it. Laws are, we should all agree, for the benefit of the common good ....1/

Hoping for the usual Trump overstep where he alienates the majority of people in areas that would usually support him. He's already shown it with military and "suckers and losers" comment.

I have just "caught up" on a series on Hulu titled: "Paradise". It's got a SciFi setting, but also with some other elements that make it a good crime/murder mystery & human drama (it's creator is the same guy behind "This Is Us"). I've watched the first 6, the 7th dropping next week (2/24,11pmCST)

One who has done so much to raise the awareness of Christians (and the world) to the realities of the Ecological Crisis, and why it matters (or should) to the community of faith.

Taking a torch to the deficit, as Republicans always do. But when you have an authoritarian , insane rush like these people are doing, the deficit is exploding. And, as usual, they don't care one bit. They think it's "grand", because it "owns the libs". www.nbcnews.com/politics/dog... 1/

As if “the economy” is separate from the clear need, including the ECONOMIC need, to address the #ClimateCrisis. This “false choice” framing is the most moronic argument an awful politician could make, and shame on any of us for falling for it. The massive costs of INACTION are already inescapable.

MAGA Christians = a particularly nasty bout of Gnostic-stained, sickened Christianity that has plagued God's people for years. It snatches them away into the grasp of the Kingdoms of this world, even though they tout that they attend to a Kingdom "Not of this world". 1/

The bitter cold sweeping the country right now is likely dampening (to some significant degree) the size and breadth of the protest of MAGA/Trump/Musk/DOGE , and makes me wonder if we shouldn't be gearing up for an "American Spring" of the size and significance of the "Arab Spring" ...1/

It's really at the point where the CDC needs to blanketly declare MAGA/Trump/Musk Administration as a disease and develop methods and safeguards to "Control" it with the eye to eradicate it from government and develop vaccines for it. www.nbcnews.com/science/scie...

Not only the movie is manipulated by others, but by "taming" Bonhoeffer through it's "surface" treatment, the original script leaves it far too open to such appropriation. Angel Studios is something of a darling to ideological right wing "Christians".

Let's keep it up. I include things like this in the admonition to "Pray without ceasing". I often am "in prayer" when I am in a DOING mode. This one reaches deep into me, and it seems like this will be happening a lot more now and in these days ahead.

And the best clue of a challenged intellect (and heart) is this meme of the Right that "AOC is dumb". They don't grasp how idiotic that reveals them to be. She runs rings around these jokers.

Plastic pollution is certainly bad and , in places, overwhelming. But that does not compare to the global impact of CO2 over-saturation/overshoot. Plastic impacts local places. CO2 impacts the entire planet and will render the planet virtually uninhabitable for most life.

Today seems to be more like "Mind your President day" as in "Mind your people"; IOW, do what we can to "reign him in". This has to be one of, if not THE worst President to have to imagine on a day that we honor the best in history. /1
