I don't know who needs to hear this (well, actually I do, but no need to mention names), but links to YouTube videos no longer load a thumbnail or title here.

If you post a link that just says, "This is great," "Huge news," "Worth the listen," or "❤️ ," most people aren't going to click. Give us a little more to go on. We don't have time to open every link.

I don't favor getting rid of the Electoral College. If a rural precinct in Idaho can stuff the ballot box and offset legally cast votes in urban areas, that's not an advantage.

I would like to see the electoral votes of all states be proportionate to the total vote in that state. So every voter in every state counts, but only toward the proportion of the electors for that state.

Oh, my, who do you think may be disenfranchised in Arizona by a GOP law that only affects people who have had a drivers license there since before 1996?

I hope Taylor Swift sells t-shirts with that post from a minor social media platform.

And then gives the proceeds to the Harris/Waltz campaign.

If you’re unhappy about subscribing to the sanewashing fron the NYT and WAPO, consider the Philadelphia Inquirer instead. It is owned by a nonprofit, The Lenfest Institute, and has no hesitation to say what needs to be said about .

When you get old, you get lots junk mail with invitations to have lunch at expensive restaurants to hear about exciting investment opportunities.

Like I’d really give my money to a firm that caters to people who believe there’s such a thing as a free lunch.

I wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then.

I grieve for what I once believed about the world

I knew it had truly awful people in it. Racists, & other forms of bigotry., Hucksters, sociopaths & a few psychopaths

But I never realized they made up SO MUCH of the adult population around me. The young man I was didn't grasp the actual percentages

These last couple of decades have ground my nose into the inescapable fact that nearly 50% of the adults around me are truly awful people
