Bernie is on FIRE!🔥

For #womenshistorymonth today I celebrates the life and legacy of Maya Angelou—poet, activist, and author of Still I Rise and I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings. Her words continue to inspire strength and resilience. Here’s some new poems from me. #blueskypoets #poems #poetry

For #WomensHistoryMonth, I’d say what this poet means to me—but for Emily Dickinson, I have no words. Only a poem. Also rest in peace, Michelle Trachtenberg. I grew up watching her, taken before the final act. Some stars burn quietly, but their light never fades. #BlueskyPoets #Poems #Poetry

Somewhere, Jeff Bezos is angrily clicking “track shipment” to see what happened to his new editorial page.

What he said about Social Security payments has been repeatedly debunked - so the question isn’t whether he’s lying about this, the question is why. What is this a pretext for? He and the GOP have long shown interest in going after Social Security. What are they going to try?

Good Christ! It’s a fucking cult!

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Dolly Parton says her husband of nearly 60 years, Carl Dean, has died at 82.

But not egg, because Trump take egg

Apparently the reason the left "always loses" is because some of us are annoying and put people off. The far-right, of course, are a bunch of cool chill guys that are fun and normal 24/7.
