I'll also add, I don't want to hear a single Republican talk about the free market again either if Krasnov is in fact intimidating a corporation about it's internal policies. gizmodo.com/trump-attack...

I don’t ever want to hear the words “fiscal responsibility” from a republican again. 4 Trillion dollar debt ceiling raise to give Betsy DeVos and the other poor rich folks more yacht change. And that’s just this year’s budget.

American dream indeed. www.npr.org/2025/02/25/n...

So call me old fashioned but … I feel like the employee should friend request the boss (if interested in that) not the other way around. Either way the story tomorrow on is “I don’t use my Facebook” 🤣

There are five statewide content organizations dealing in SS here in Michigan. As many of you know I’ve spent a lot of time at the top of one of them. I sit on several of the others boards. One that I don’t is primarily federally funded and as you might have guessed (1/

Didn’t have him pegged as a foot guy honestly but good for you Krasnov. Live your true self.

Right over their heads. Just like basic economics and Chemtrails.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

I’d like to report a murder 🤣

If I have a legacy I’m proudest of from my time as MCSS president it’s successfully navigating the organization through a global pandemic while increasing programming and opportunities for our members and increasing our sponsorships to keep costs for teachers low.

New rule - stemming out of my Meta DMs by someone who “hasn’t appreciated my not giving Mango Mussolini” a chance: if you proudly flew a “fuck Joe Biden” flag you should maybe not get on the soapbox of lecturing others about morality and grace. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

Keep the pressure on - they need to be MORE scared of us than hey are Trump, because … and this is important … THEY WORK FOR US www.thedailybeast.com/gop-rep-rich...

It’s weird, I’m old enough to remember when Putin, a former high ranking KGB agent and authoritarian leader of Russia was the enemy - not crafting policy executed by the president of the United States. 🤔

Me 5 minutes ago: Hon? Greatest Wife Ever: yeah? Me: I love you. GWE: why? Me: For suggesting at 5:45 that since the girls are gone we should change to PJs and watch TV in bed. GWE: SnnnnnoooOoooOOre…

A friend is starting a new initiative and I not only believe in it but have agreed to join the team and help. Check it out here! www.fourforalldemocracy.com

In lighter posting I have to thank @janeespenson.bsky.social for this scene from Warehouse 13 which still has me laughing all these years later. (How long did this take Eddie to practice I wonder…) youtu.be/pnIqY5sEAJg?...

You’re on Ketamine.

This is going over peoples heads on FB but I’m sure my Blue Sky friends can easily read and understand this document - especially the incredible @lindarmonkjd.bsky.social billofrightsinstitute.org/primary-sour...

15 compliments on my shirt and counting. While standing up to get my legs a stretch during intermission an old lady 3 rows back pointed at my shirt and saluted me

Taking in a show at Wharton Center in East Lansing today and I plan to enjoy my first Amendment rights while I have them.

There’s always a bigger fish

Considering the “Sorry but what can we do” resistance from the feckless leadership of Schumer and Jeffries this would be a welcome strategy.

I’m fine with investigating and eliminating fraud - where I part ways with our current reality in this is giving an unelected billionaire the power to dismantle with an indiscriminate sledgehammer systems that affect the lives and livelihood of millions of Americans with no oversight.

It was the fuck aroundiest of times it was the findoutiest of times.
