Retired and enjoying it! I have many interests and am discovering more each day. I am not often political, but when I am it is with a leftist viewpoint filtered through the lens of a non-Christian faith.

For those concerned with a more accurate measure of unemployment in the coming months you can bookmark this page from the Bureau of Labor Statistics...at least until the Republicans delete it. www.bls.gov/news.release...

Though I no longer share this pastor's faith, I share his concerns about Christian nationalism. This is a long article but is extremely well written and informative. baptistnews.com/article/chri...

As part of the Trans Rights Readathon I will be supporting the Iowa Trans Mutual Aid Fund, supporting gender affirming care for all. If you are able to send a small contribution please do so as a way to push back against the anti-trans crap happening in our state. www.iowatransmutualaidfund.org

Given what this GOP administration is doing do you blame them?

‘Stop these crazy bills’: Republicans join Democrats to defeat anti-trans legislation in Montana There are 696 bills under consideration across 49 states meant to negatively impact trans & gender-nonconforming people including 97 in Texas and 62 in Missouri www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Local bookstore called to let me know they finally received copies. Seems they were on backorder for some reason. #fuck47 #fuckfacism

The big question: What did TikTok's CEO Shou Zi Chew promise Trump in order to get authorization to resume service to US customers? www.forbes.com/sites/antoni...

The new few weeks, months, years, will likely not be pretty. Get this guide to surveillance self-defense to your communities. It has printable PDFs as well as tailored reccomendations for certain activities, types of people, etc. ssd.eff.org

EXCITING ANNOUNCEMENT: Assigned Media will be doing our first ever live Twitch stream this Monday. Our trans journalists are counterprogramming the Trump inauguration. They'll play games, goof off, answer questions, and update you on the news, occasionally. We've even got a special guest!

Those who are able will move away from the mainstream tech world into more independent social media outlets. Unfortunately many will not be able to do so for a variety of reasons. Algorithms will harvest their presence, push the appropriate money-making ads, and see them as profit centers.

Poor farmer. I can help him find sympathy. It's in the dictionary between shit and syphilis. #nosympathyformaga

No doubt the incoming administration will take credit for this retroactively. Strange how this was not front page news during the campaign. Of course we all know why that didn't happen.

Similarly the incoming administration attacked egg prices under President Biden. They are indeed high. Here is today's price at the local HyVee as a benchmark. Let's watch and see how quickly they go down after Trump is inaugurated. gyazo.com/6b8946939c2d...

Just dropping this here in light of the incoming administration's promise to lower gas prices. This is a Casey's up the road in Mediapolis. It will be interesting to watch in the coming weeks. gyazo.com/3b0f6e9e71ca...

This should be obvious but apparently it is not. If the MAGA crowd still insists that Trump won the 2020 election then he is clearly prohibited by the US Constitution from taking the oath on Monday. You cannot have it both ways. If you support him being the next President you have to let 2020 go.
