Abolishing the Department of Education will further decimate rural schools... And, for what? The Dept of Ed does not write curriculum -- that is done at the local and state level. The funding from the department mostly supports economically disadvantaged school systems. The poorest schools...

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

2026 Midterms. It's not too early to talk about it. Organize. ID and cultivate winnable candidates. Writing to both your solid blue AND reasonable red congress reps and Senators - at the Federal and state levels. Vote with your dollars EVERY day. NO MONEY for oligarch-owned business. Action NOW!

I've deleted Facebook I've deleted Instagram. I deleted my twitter account long ago. Goodbye Oligarch Controlled social media. TikTok - you're next if you are sold or it becomes clear you've Sold Out.

YouTube shorts has been around for so long, but still has not figured out how to make a workable algorithm? Utterly stale content that's 3 YEARS old in my feed. WE ARE NOT AMUSED. #youtubeshorts #youtube #dobetter #tiktokban

I can still feel the softness of the fur on your neck, the warmth of your muzzle when you lay it across my foot. Hear your content sighs in the night. I miss you so much. You were real. You were loved. đź’” #dogs #grieving
