I think last fall he created a company called USA, Inc.

I've been learning daily what our federal government does, as civil servants at the highest levels are being cut and replaced with 47's sycophants. Not sure what to do, other than make posts in support of the resistance, to stop this insurrection from within.

Radical to love the vulnerable and oppressed. To shelter those fleeing despotic regimes in their homelands. The Xtian message i think could be distilled down to radical love!

Here, have some chunky eggnog we never got to. Chicken: yeah no. Here's some apples, bananas, and fresh basil. Birds: fuck yeah! Buff Orpington and turkey: uhh, got any of those mealwormy things?

Thx for making this available. Many of us were attending MLK rallies, so we can go back and be fortified by this.

Visited one of our libraries for the first time in a long time. Hoping I can do something this year to help our oppressed community, many of whom find solace in our library.

The People's March in Old Town Fort Collins

Flags outside the library and around town still at half mast for Carter.

Poetry project in our local library from the incarcerated

I feel that's what Biden and Harris have done, especially through campaigning most recently. Perhaps they could've leaned into those facts more, namely the insurrection of '21. As he said in his farewell address, it's up to us to cary the flame now.

Staying frosty,staying vigilant. The tried and true media sources I depend upon are shifting. Even the Atlantic, beyond the NYT, seems to acquiesce to an incoming, intolerant regime. I need a new, progressive source.

Listened to a Blindboy podcast yesterday where he encouraged folks confronted with a blank page to begin with poetry, to get into that realm that is more playful, less rule-bound.

A small crew of us will discuss Rebecca Solnit's Hope in the Dark for a book club this March.

Except...gender-affirming care for dependents of military personnel was stripped way with Democrats' help, just this month. This makes me sad, and I'll be watching for Democrats to stand firm for people who stand to be oppressed by this incoming administration.

Amelia, Snatch, and Minority Report, sooo gooood! You made out like a bandit. Movies for daays.

Danny Hesser @flip-anadia.bsky.social · 28/12/2024

Fascinating. At the beginning of my own research as well. In what ways do we manifest our ancestors today?

Danny Hesser @flip-anadia.bsky.social · 28/12/2024

He voted for the latest bill that saw gender-affirming care taken away from dependents of military personnel. Astoundingly non-progressive. For my money, I like Joe Neguse.

Just commented on someone's post, bringing them up in the context of how misogyny is still so embedded in our society. And it's the Supreme Court!

The number of folks in the 35 other "industrialized" nations who file for bankruptcy each year: 0 Universal Healthcare, please! But there is a very strong HMO lobby out there. Have to try at the state level first?

Yaaaaas. That's how we're gonna get through, and help one another.

We got to join a Feast of Seven Fishes on Xmas eve. Made some limoncello for the first time. Salut!

Just went down this rabbit hole. Thanks to great journalism, we begin to see how the sausage is made. Makes me think about Anita Hill and Christine Ford.

Danny Hesser @flip-anadia.bsky.social · 21/12/2024

So glad for your daughter's resilience, and although incredibly expensive, our medical care and research programs can at times be miraculous. But it should be on our collective dime. I want my taxes to go towards universal healthcare, AND research. Hoping Musk gets Luigi'd.

Danny Hesser @flip-anadia.bsky.social · 21/12/2024

I'm so sorry. As a father of three that is heartbreaking to hear.

Danny Hesser @flip-anadia.bsky.social · 21/12/2024

You have to watch local ordinances proposed as well. We handily voted down a measure written to sound like it was great for our local schools, but it would have defunded our public education system, sending tax dollars to parochial schools. Ft. Collins, CO.

Of course he led the gerrymandering and prevented Obama's selection for a new SCOTUS judge from going through. He also stands against many of the incoming administration policies, especially the undermining of the DOJ. Politics will make strange bedfellows.

Successful treatments might "gradually [exhaust] the available pool of treatable oatients." People, even in illness, are just sources of revenue. A few hundred thousand families go bankrupt EVERY YEAR here because of the cost of medical care. We are the only country who has these policies.

000

Danny Hesser @flip-anadia.bsky.social · 18/12/2024

There are mainstream, old party dems who are afraid of progressives. But what will be needed to protect people from the incoming administration are fearless people, young and old. That includes Mitch McConnell, who won't stand idly by while a narcissistic president disenfranchises most Americans.

Danny Hesser @flip-anadia.bsky.social · 18/12/2024

I'll keep fighting. I hope i can step it up on the local front.

Worked in a TB lab for 15 years, will need to check out your book. I noticed that you also wrote The Fault in Our Stars, which I've been interested in watching. What's up with Amazon? They should be donating 100 bucks to tb research for every signed book of yours sold.

Happy Anniversary! Thank you for speaking up for Kamala Harris. And for contending for your father and bringing him back from the dark side.

We have sweet friends who just moved out to Missouri from here, Colorado. Sending vibes for resiliency. A lot of us are in this together. Your canyon shot adds to our inner landscapes of how we are regenerated.

Danny Hesser @flip-anadia.bsky.social · 15/12/2024

Yeah, things can change really fast. Not, like, 2014 to 2024, based on his discussion with Elizabeth Warren versus Biden's tax proposal. But more like within the next year, when Medicare and Medicaid benefits taken away, let alone Obamacare.

Damn, I was so looking forward to you leading our nation. Yes, I have qualms about a few of your positions, but I had tremendous hope that you would enable us to level up as a nation. I still believe in you.

What a fucking shame. DBIA don't obey in advance. Let's make that proactive - PTP protest to prevent

Yikes. This is a rabbit hole indeed.

Hmm, wanna look into this. Thank you.

Also, Heather Cox Richardson has a way of placing the politics of that age in a modern context, as in, repeating the same narrative. A concentration of wealth in a clueless aristocracy.

Also, a little bird told me that Eliot's writing demonstrates an astounding view into our inner psychology, perhaps specifically, women's understanding and imagination.

020

Danny Hesser @flip-anadia.bsky.social · 07/12/2024

Not necessarily about the age, but written in it...George Eliot's Middlemarch. Haven't read it, or her, but i heard that Virginia Woolf once said it's one of the few English novels written for adults. Not to privilege adults.

Danny Hesser @flip-anadia.bsky.social · 06/12/2024

Gonna try to do something each week to resist. Keep a journal, too. The revolution will be written.

Saw those falls for the first time this fall, traveling from Colorado 💙

Yes, more posturing to not offend the incoming regime. I do like the assertion that courage is also infectious.

Danny Hesser @flip-anadia.bsky.social · 04/12/2024

Good tidings. It's okay to let folks have their rant. We can listen and read and reread, and then wait. Wait for the right words, or perhaps for the frustration to subside. There is time. And maybe many won't be persuaded by any amount of words. They'll have to experience it. Let them have that.

Djt lost the 2020 election, then fomented violence to maintain his presidency, then clung to this idea that the election was stolen ever since. His delusional, violent Mind just might be the end of America.
