Trying to be that change. Sometimes the light shines, sometimes a flicker, others there's darkness. Regularly try changing bulbs, starters, and ballast. My brightness glows brightly when I'm around equality, ⚖️, history, art, music, and brilliant ideas.

I miss the time when actual grown-ups were in charge. Even when they made mistakes, it was never like the insanity we are seeing now.

It has been just on a month of Clown Show Series 2. Fiona Katauskas has plenty to work with. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

'(News Corp) is “unbalanced and, at times, fairly unhinged” and should largely be ignored.' www.theguardian.com/media/2025/f...

This reckless policy must be reversed. Leave this decision-making with the doctors, patients, and carers involved. www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

The world’s richest man who no one elected just walked into the US Treasury, stole your Social Security number, and Trump let him. You deserve to know why this is happening - call your member of Congress and Senators (202) 224-3121 and ask why.

“Trump is acting like a king because he is too weak to govern like a president. He is trying to substitute perception for reality. He is hoping that perception then becomes reality. That can only happen if we believe him.” - Ezra Klein

Caroline Kennedy fires both barrels at her mad, bad and dangerous cousin Bobby. And she does not miss. www.smh.com.au/world/north-...

QED, the preselectors made the sensible choice. Perhaps there was a better seat elsewhere for Warren? To rail against this decision playing the "DEI choice" card, being prominently anti-voice, and a luminary of Sky "News"... Maybe not in Bradfield Warren. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-01...

First person accounts like these are so vitally important. The world must never be allowed to forget. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...

Representing local issues would be a huge improvement. Ellie Smith would not be about culture wars or distractions. Also, the joy it would bring around Australia to see Dutton replaced... www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

The robber barons in the oil, gas, and coal industries, and all the Trump enablers... Beyond the pale. Trump Wants to Unleash Energy, as Long as It’s Not Wind or Solar www.nytimes.com/2025/01/21/c...

I guess we could start them off on penicillin, maybe a toxin screen? www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

I pray this helps some of you today. We have a duty to Dr. King whose life was taken because he dared demand that this country face itself, to demonstrate that his work & sacrifice was not in vain. Let’s do it together. Please share. And subscribe. open.substack.com/pub/sherrily...

Just had to post this because it seems so appropriate for anyone in DC right now. Wish I could get the Village People to sing it during the inauguration 😂 youtu.be/surb8FzjWfg?...

Not only did Jack Smith preemptively dismiss the charges against Trump, but he also apparently gave his lawyers the courtesy — yes, courtesy — of reviewing at least portions of his final report prior to release. If this seems weird, it is. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/brin...

In a world of Kid Rocks and Carrie Underwoods, be a Woody Guthrie.

Rather proud that @albomp.bsky.social is standing up to jerkface. We all know the other guy wouldn’t.

Facts matter. Share with everyone you know. gavinnewsom.com/california-f...

AOC is badass!! 🙌🏼

🙏🏻

Real victims exist, their families and close friends, along with the first responders at the pointy end. All of these people and many more with their own memories of trauma triggered by this Musk onslaught. It is indeed grotesque for Musk to "entertain" this way. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Let’s see - I’m being sentenced for 34 felonies on Friday, I’ve nominated a bunch of unschooled idiots for my cabinet, and I owe E Jean $483 million. What can I distract the idiots with?

If Shakespeare was writing today, which politician would he name? #Shakespeare #HenryV yourdayyourtao.org/tao-and-shak... Shakespeare wasn't known as a Taoist, but his characters express a fair number of Taoist thoughts. #TaoTeChing #Daodejing #LaoTsu #LaoTzu #Laozi

That’s how it looks from our side.

If the GOP leadership was a punk band and the MAGA unfortunates a punk movement... What would they be called? www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
