Is he unaware of FloriDUH man…and woman?! FL has only gotten crazier and LESS FREE under DeSantis and the mindless MAGA cult. They are corrupt, arrogant AND stupid — and that is NOT a good combination!

I for one think it’s bad that the president can just say crazy stuff all day every day and 99% of it doesn’t make the news because we’ve normalized having an insane president

Additionally, SK has provided support and supplies to UKR “behind the scenes”. Some of that support we know of publicly is included in the image below, but it has been suggested they have provided more than that — especially in terms of humanitarian & medical support.

If you think NK soldiers are gleefully volunteering to fight in UKR, you’re not facing reality. NK soldiers join the military & fight in UKR because their lives, & those of their families, are at risk if they refuse. As I said previously, MANY PEOPLE IN MANY PLACES ARE SUFFERING FROM RUSSIA’S WAR.

If UKR wants to send defecting NK soldiers to SK (which seems a noble plan) then, yes, UKR needs to cooperate with the SK government to ensure powerless families of defecting NK soldiers are protected by NOT announcing these plans. I blame Russia & NK, but the suffering is spread over so many.

Norway produces more oil than Venezuela. And yet, between January and August 2026, electric vehicles made up 97.8 percent of all new cars sold in that country. Moving to EVs is often based on intelligence, not need. Which is why it lags in the notoriously short-sighted and stupid United States.

I agree NK, Russia, USA, Israel, Afghanistan, Iran, & MANY more nations need regime change, but HOW to do it w/o violence; w/o massive human & eco harm; w/o neo-imperialism; & w/o violations of sovereignty is a challenge. In the meantime, harming powerless people & innocent kids is NOT a solution.

Here's how we get Medicare for All done: Make Medicare whole (no one can keep all the parts straight!) Include vision, dental, and hearing. Begin extending to more people, starting with children. We arrive at Medicare for All, which means great Medicare for everyone.

Except Zelensky‘s betrayal did not harm SK; it harmed the powerless families of NK soldiers whose lives, & the lives of those their families, are threatened if they refuse to comply with orders from their dictator.

PS-I fully support UKR, but if you don’t understand or refuse to acknowledge: 1)the realities and complexities of the situation; 2)the fact real POWERLESS people are being harmed on ALL sides; 3)the majority of humans just want to live safe, peaceful lives; then you are just another war monger.

Grow up. Standing on the side of good for humanity is not as simple as simple minded people want to think it is. SK is trying to help defecting North Koreans protect their families who are still in NK. Should powerless North Korean families suffer bc you dislike SK refraining from supporting UKR?

Athena Veritas @athenaveritas.bsky.social · 27/09/2026
You don’t seem to get it…IT IS NOT A CHOICE. In NK citizens do not have rights or protections. If the dictator says you go into the military & you go to war, that’s what you will do because if you do not, they will threaten not only your life, but the life of your children and other family members.

Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024. In 2025, he made 1,794x more. And we're supposed to believe Starbucks can't afford to bargain a fair contract with its unionized workers? I will continue my boycott of Starbucks.

This is an entirely new phenomenon because before the vaccine, most women who survived measles were immune because they had it when they were young. But now, idiots who refuse to get vaccinated are giving birth to babies with measles. Two babies have died. www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...
nbcnews.com
America had wiped out measles. Now babies are infected at birth.
Congenital measles has rarely been seen in the U.S. That’s changing as vaccination declines and more pregnant women become infected.

So fuc*ing infuriating and sad. The CDC used to be the crown jewel of the world's scientific firmament. Other countries came to us for help fighting deadly diseases. Its disease detectives learned what caused illness and helped change practices to prevent them. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/26/h...

Disabled people make society uncomfortable. Left or right…. It doesn’t matter. People want to believe it can’t happen to them. That if they become disabled there will be a magic “fix”. We challenge their denial, so they deny us solidarity and support. That’s ableism.

If the death penalty actually deterred crime & prevented murders, then there wouldn’t be any crime or any murders. Why don’t we give the ICE agents who murdered people in our streets the death penalty? Clearly, it’s acceptable to allow our “government” to commit murder… There is no “JUSTICE” system.

The Supreme Court is letting Trump use a faulty database for purges. What it could mean for voters
The Trump administration said states made “some 60 million voter-verification queries" to its flawed SAVE system between January 2025 and April 2026.
