Left and Right or Top and Bottom?
@homebird @stueytheround
No one is going to shut me up, not now. I'm not going to defend the LORD, he does his own defense, however, I am no longer gonna give others power over what I find meaningful in my life. So, let them talk, one thing for sure, they most definitely don't know what they are talking about.
@stueytheround Yes, I thought we were a bit more gentle here. But if they want to bring it. I'm here for it. Me, my fellow Christians, and our LORD in the sky, as they say. But mine, is with me all the time. I'm sick of it.
@feloneouscat Might not be a bad idea.
@MarceloPaezPereda Well, it appears we won't agree on why voters "moved right" for this election, so I'm leaving it alone. But all the excuses won't change the fact that it did. They hate Biden and wanted to punish him, oh my. From what I see, they were more likely trying to punish people like me. America is what it is and always has been.
So, I decided the "weekly hashtag" thing won't be super firm on a day of the week, and I'll let critical thinking, well being, and deescalation subjects overlap, 'cause I'm a housewife, that's some pro level shit I was talking about before. Anyway, here's a post with an exorcise, "there's more in this moment", to help with grounding and gratitude.

@Y2cake For Sure.
Guns smuggled from the US are blamed for a surge in killings on more Caribbean islands
In a letter sent to U.S. legislators in late September, New York’s attorney general and 13 other colleagues across the U.S. demanded new measures to stop the flow of guns, noting that 90% of weapons used in the Caribbean were bought in the U.S. and smuggled into the region.

A man who worked for the U.S. government has been charged with leaking classified information assessing Israel’s earlier plans to attack Iran, according to court papers filed Wednesday.
The man, identified as Asif William Rahman, was arrested by the FBI this week in Cambodia and was due to make his first court appearance in Guam.
@VelvetDuchess People don't like to talk about the hard stuff, can't handle the truth. America has always been racist and misogynistic. I really wish people realized how much it hurts when others try to dismiss the truth.
This part though:
"This country has been built on who can get closer to whiteness"
@brainwise Yes, he deserves a cape. Delaying his retirement for the team. Oh, yeah.
@MarceloPaezPereda They voted for him whether they embrace his ideology or not. The electorate did indeed move right, no denying that.
With Trump winning the presidency, a federal judge in Ohio, U.S. District Judge Algenon Marbley, appointed to the bench by Bill Clinton, has chosen to rescind his decision to take “senior status” preventing Trump from being able to appoint a successor following Trump’s election win.
Portland’s first ranked-choice vote elects progressive outsider as mayor

@Flyingdutchman696 Right, all the values, every single one of them.
@_Ms_J Even so, why would Russia do that to a friend?
@th3j35t3r That's pretty telling. Trump better stay in his lane.
