It is amazing how good my life got and how much happier I became when I focused on gratitude and got out of my own way.

Just a handful of Republicans in Congress could join with Democrats to end Trump’s tariff taxes on us today.That they won’t is yet another reason to throw out Republicans in 2026 and restore checks and balances to our government.

Condolences to all of the LGBTQ teens who were rejcted by their families and committed suicide or were tortured by conversion therapy because of bigots like James Dobson.I suggest we commemorate James Dobson's death by sending a donation to The Trevor Project.https://www.thetrevorproject.org/

Happy 60th Birthday, Medicare & Medicaid! Trump and his Republicans just gutted both and the ACA with Project 2025 and their "Big Beautiful Bill", and we are throwing them out in 2026 and 2028, so we can move toward universal health care.https://kffhealthnews.org/news/podcast/what-the-health-411-60th-anniversary-medicare-medicaid-august-21-2025/

Every species in the animal kingdom prioritizes protecting their young.We refuse to take away the assault weapons that enable school mass shootings, and now we are taking away their vaccines.These two things alone are signs of a dying empire.

I just earned a toaster oven as a reward for recruiting my twentieth newcomer to Antifa.

The fascists want to label the pride flag as “domestic terrorism”, so here is the pride flag.

President Biden is a good man who tried following Trump’s first term with unity, bipartisanship, and “norms.That turned out to be incredibly naive and now we have fascism.When this regime finally ends, what say we go for accountability, justice, and sending these bastards to The Hague instead?

We don’t want a new White House ballroom. We want groceries, healthcare, and housing that we can afford.

If you are one of the thousand-plus FBI agents ordered to find and redact Donald Trump's name and what he did in the Epstein files, and it weighs heavily on your heart and soul to see this cover-up happening, please come forward and speak your peace.No job is worth your soul.

Los Angeles has food deserts too. Probaly every big city has at least one. Could we set up a few of public grocery stores too? These only serve areas without other options.https://civileats.com/2025/08/20/op-ed-public-grocery-stores-already-exist-and-work-well-we-need-more/

Throughout history corporations and their leadership have a terrible record when it comes to authoritarianism. They will almost always disappoint anyone hoping they risk losing even a dime to stand up for democracy.“We have a fiduciary responsibility to our stockholders.”It is always a pleasant surprise when a corporate leader does the right thing.

I remember a history teacher saying, “when Iowa housewives turned against the Vietnam War, then it was inevitable we would end it.”This feels like a 1970 Kent State Univ. massacre moment.When enough white Americans turn against government authoritarianism/fascism, then things start to shift.We don’t need all the Trump/MAGA cultists to wake up — just enough white Americans to see this as their struggle too. It shouldn’t be this way, but that has been American history.

A unanimous Metro vote in favor of the Sepulveda Transit Corridor Heavy Rail project connecting the Valley and Westside. Absolutely fantastic news.#transit #LosAngeles

If other democracies want to help democracy in America right now, they can start selling our treasuries.That seems to be the only thing that gets Republicans to take action against Trump.

When a CEO says it is "time for de-escalation", what they are actually saying is, "please don't do a general strike or boycott that could lower corporate profits and my annual bonus, or demand that I stand up to Trump's fascism in any way, because I am a craven coward with no principles."

“If we prosecute everyone in the Epstein files, the whole system will collapse”!🙄That sounds as ridiculous as "if we tax the superwealthy like everyone else, they won't 'create jobs'."Are we done with these cons yet?All that will happen when we prosecute everyone in the Epstein files is that there will be room at the top for new people who are not part of a child rape and murder ring, and there will be less government, business, and diplomacy by blackmail.Drain that swamp!
