Dolly Parton did all the good she could, for all the people she could, for as long as ever she could. From her legendary songwriting to the Imagination Library—which sent 1 million books a month to children across the country—she was the best of America. Dolly, we'll miss your great heart.

Here’s how to sell Americans on single-payer: don’t talk numbers. Don’t talk data. Show them how little paperwork is involved. Show them what it looks like when you don’t have to fill out thirty-five redundant forms for every visit. Show them how SIMPLE things become. Show them CONVENIENCE.

“These are federal agents who kill and face no consequences, and are led by people pushing an ethnic cleansing campaign. These killings are simply part of that job." This is absolutely correct from @melissagiragrant.com

ICE’s Violence Is No Accident. It’s Part of the Job.
After ICE agents killed a man in Maine, the Department of Homeland Security suspended traffic stops, then reversed course. But the official policy is just optics, anyway: Agents know what they’ve been...

This strive to remove the humanity from our lives always reminds me of Kurt Vonnegut insisting on buying single stamps despite the inconvenience, or rather, because of doing so.
A screenshot of a Kurt Vonnegut quote: "Oh, she says well, you’re not a poor man. You know, why don’t you go online and buy a hundred envelopes and put them in the closet? And so I pretend not to hear her. And go out to get an envelope because I’m going to have a hell of a good time in the process of buying one envelope. I meet a lot of people. And, see some great looking babes. And a fire engine goes by. And I give them the thumbs up. And, and ask a woman what kind of dog that is. And, and I don’t know. The moral of the story is, is we’re here on Earth to fart around. And, of course, the computers will do us out of that. And, what the computer people don’t realize, or they don’t care, is we’re dancing animals."

My god, Octavia Butler, just miss ONCE
 Page from a book saying:

From EARTHSEED: THE BOOKS OF THE LIVING
Choose your Leaders with wisdom and forethought.
To be led by a coward is to be controlled
by all that the coward fears.
To be led by a fool is to be led
by the opportunists who control the fool.
To be led by a thief is to offer up your most precious treasures to be stolen.
To be led by a liar
is to ask to be told lies.
To be led by a tyrant is to sell yourself and those you love into slavery.

I think the reason I've been a little ambiently mad all day is because January 6th rioters are statistically the most likely group of pedophiles in the world and they clubbed a guy to death and they're going to be rich from the tax money that I give to the country I live in.

Hmmm, I still don’t think that’s a valid assessment of the movie. It remains one of the best reviewed and commercially successful of all the Star Trek movies- definitely heralded. I’ve never met a person who doesn’t like Star Trek 4, whether or not they’re already a Trek fan or not.

Stoking and channeling boiling contempt for the ultra-rich is a pretty essential element of what needs to happen if we're gonna get out of this. And folks, they've given us a lot to work with. Don't tone police that shit. When it gets out of control, remind people why that's happening.

I'm a trans woman in Florida. If I want to visit friends across the state I can't safely use the bathroom until I arrive at my destination because it's practically a crime for me to exist in public. I've done nothing wrong. I simply exist but that's enough to make fascist law enforcement target me.
