ROANOKE COUNTY: School Board elections are vital and too often overlooked. If you’re in the Windsor Hills District or know someone who is- Ryan White needs signatures to get in the ballot.

How is he defining democracy?

You shouldn’t be able to buy citizenship

Trump’s slogan is “broke not woke”

I love my Hyundai Kona EV.

Imagine DOGE opens your mail and finds your household electric bill. To eliminate this cost, they burn your house down without warning. Then they total up the bills that, as a homeless person, you will never again pay. On its website, DOGE boasts about the money it has saved you.

Somehow seems appropriate that my local library got two of my reservations in today. “Mr Smith Goes to Washington” and Timothy Snyder’s “On Tyranny”

Gregg is a former Marine and Forest Service ranger. He's saved the lives of hikers dangling off a cliff or going through cardiac arrest, and he's bravely fought forest fires to save small rural towns. 100% of his salary is paid by WA state. Elon fired him. Share his story.

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 just called Rep Morgan Griffith’s DC office about Trump’s plans for the Post Office. I got through on the first call, the gentlemen took my info and said he’d pass my concerns on to the representative. It did not feel like he was concerned about what I was saying.

Men of profoundly underdeveloped spirits, minds, and perspectives are running the country.

I guess Trump achieved his goal. My household is living in the 1800s now that the snowstorm has knocked power out.

Why in the world would a company make a pretty good Super Bowl ad, spend $16m to air it, post it to YouTube, and allow there to be ads in front of their ad? Stella Artois, I’m looking at you

I don’t care who wins the Super Bowl, so I’m rooting for the team running to the left.

I just updated LibreOffice on my home Macs. Such a great product!

The average Fox News viewer has no idea that Musk is tearing down a system that allowed this country to rule the world for the past 75 years. And when their standard of living slips dramatically in the next five years they still won’t understand because their TV will blame it on some poor scapegoat.

I am quite disappointed with my local Democratic party organization. I expressed interest in attending the monthly meeting, chatted with a coordinator, mentioned I wasn’t able to attend in person. Today I got an email back that online meetings are for party members only. 1/2

Why in the world would someone want to pay to rotate pages in Adobe Acrobat? Open the PDF in the web browser.

People are cruel towards anything that they don’t understand. I just burst into tears watching the 2016 movie Pete’s Dragon when the loggers shot and tied up and attacked Elliot. The analogy for the loggers and the people in charge in DC is too obvious.

Putin is full out celebrating our idiocy.

Watching Red Dawn, the story of a hostile takeover of the United States. Seems so quaint from a more innocent time when we only worried about being invaded by the Soviet Union via paratroopers and nuclear bombs. An administrative takeover would have been laughed out of the room.
