I believe that a Nobel Peace Prize is in order for the J6 Select Committee and the staff that conducted interviews, researched and compiled the evidence. They did an extraordinary job. The DOJ, Americans and people around the world will study each page of the J6 Committee Report.

We must never forget that lying azz republicans have passed over 300 Anti-LGBTQ laws mostly aimed at trans kids who make up less than 0.4% of the US population while ignoring the NUMBER ONE cause of deaths for kids, GUNS. We must remain vigilant against these fork tongued liars.

A true meritocracy requires equal access to everyone. Just take a look at how much marginalized communities have contributed to our country in spite of all the restrictions placed on them. We can and must do better. Each of us can help make change if we choose to do it. #OneLove

Word is that the #RussianButcher says he’s ready to negotiate over the Ukraine. What’s there to negotiate when he needlessly unleashed his terrorism and destroyed the country, killed thousands of innocent civilians including children based on LIES. He and his henchmen need to be tried at the International Criminal Court at The Hague for crimes against humanity and caged for life.

When we get to the point in our lives where we no longer have expectations, but instead we have requirements, we demand that others respect our time, that others match our efforts, we all keep our promises and we always expect honesty and consistency. These are our requirements and not expectations. Are we asking too much?

It’s absolutely important to be noticed for what we accomplish or how well we treat others. These are things that we control. What some random person thinks of how we look, particularly if they make a rude or crude comment, shows how shallow they’re. It has nothing to do with us.

Staying positive doesn’t necessarily mean that we always have to be happy all the time. It means that even on the hardest of days, we know that there are better days ahead. Let’s trust the process, because hope is our North Star. #OneLove

There's a real freedom to learning not to care what others (aside from maybe a few special people in our lives like a spouse) think about us. Many people never learn this valuable lesson, and most don't learn it until middle age or later. If we learn it, it's a great blessing.

Feminism isn't about hating men.

“Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.”
― Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
This day, and every day, let's embrace the light.

So, Congressfolks, what IS the relationship between Poverty and Caring? We are not talking about handouts, we are talking about opportunity, about our ability to turn impossibility into possibility. Poverty can never be addressed as long as material richness masquerades as spiritual richness.

i've had one since 1968

'It has often and confidently been asserted, that man's origin can never be known: but ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge: it is those who know little, and not those who know much, who so positively assert that this or that problem will never be solved by science.'
~ Charles Darwin, naturalist, (1809-1882)

When the lower classes want funding for things like "education" and "healthcare," it's called mooching. When the megacorporations want subsidies and deregulation to add to their stock value on top of the billions in income tax they already don't pay, it's called "good business sense." and we wonder why America is a third-world country in terms of social health...

I do find it encouraging that from time to time I am seeing comments to the effect that poverty and the inability of the poor to access things like food, shelter and healthcare without government assistance (or at all) is more an indictment of our society as a whole, rather than of the poor themselves. When a “successful” company has full-time employees who cannot support themselves, how successful are they really?

I’ve read enough Dickens to think this was also the case in his time, and well he knew it. See Ignorance and Want tucked under the robes of the Ghost of Christmas Present.
It’s amazing how much “moral failing” is the result of poverty, rather than the other way around.
