A physical security tip I haven’t shared in a while but it’s always relevant, especially for women; Before you get into your car glance through the windows into the back seat. Once you’re in your car, lock the doors immediately. Let it become a habit.

Some little boys want to grow up to be a cop or fireman. I wanted to be a bus driver. I never got to drive a bus, but did motivate a lifelong love of driving. I’ve taught motorcycle riding for Yamaha, I got to drive every vehicle in the motor pool in the Army and an armored car later on.

It crossed my mind today that the shitty economy is having another, less discussed, effect on society. As money becomes tighter fewer average Americans can afford to donate to non-profits.

When you die, please don't take your organs with you. They will be of NO use to you. Please sign the back of your driver's license and be an organ donor. This is the highest form of "charity" because the recipient can do nothing for you except be grateful for your selfless gift.

I’m trying to find a room or studio apartment before 12/1, just before Xmas, in Winter, and a shitty economy that’s resulting in rents of $1000+ for what amounts to a closet. Such a depressing experience.

Something that always annoys me is when Christians say that nobody has suffered as Christ suffered. More than half of his followers suffered the exact same fate. In fact, Christ wasn’t even the only person who was crucified *that day*

If Trump et.al. intends to ignore the elections anyway, which I expect him to do, why waste all this effort trying to deny people the right to vote? Let them vote, let them believe their vote matters, then discard them. Trump doesn't even seem to be able to do fascism correctly.

Why do we care 'about' other people so much, about how they live, who they love... When instead we should be caring 'for' other people?

Last year I told everyone they should gift food for the holidays. This year it’s the same. Feed each other. Clothe each other. Blanket each other. People sometimes need help but are afraid to ask for it.

The Democratic party operates under the premise that “the public has to vote for them because Republicans are bad”, but it’s a false choice. There is a better option. We can & must fight for a new system where the billionaire-owned economy is replaced with a people-owned economy.

Two golfers are on the 9th hole when a hearse passes by on the road next to them. One of the golfers removes his hat and holds it over his heart. The other golfer said, "I never knew you were so religious". The first golfer replies, "She was a good wife for 40 years."

The fascists are abusing language in order to brainwash those who believe them. They like to use ambiguous terms like “woke” because they can make it mean anything. They call the left Communists while the right hosts Communists in the White House. They are incredible, literally.

I can’t decide if Trump is being shown faked favorable polls, and that’s why he’s always claiming to be more popular than he actually is, or if he sees real polls and that’s why he’s so pissed off at everyone lately.

It makes me sad when there's a movie about a topic I find interesting and in watching it find the acting, writing, and effects all corny and subpar.

The Washington Post reported that the president revealed "highly classified information" to the Russian foreign minister and ambassador, possibly jeopardizing future intelligence gathering on ISIS.

I'm concerned about what we're going to face when Trump, Kask, Petey, and the rest are gone. Thousands of MAGA sympathetic FBI, DOJ, and USPS employees will still be left in place, many under the radar. If they can't be removed their ability to enact corrupt policies will have to be neutered.

Trump stuffed the courts with sympathetic judges during his first term because he hoped to have every challenge to his dictatorship adjudicated by a judge oweing him a favor. Then he suffered legal defeats at the hands of the very judges he bought and paid for. *

So Trump has decided he can label everything he wants as a national security necessity: his ballroom, his arch, his banning of journalists and a free press. Don't doubt that he will try to undermine or even stop midterm voting as a national security risk. Note: It's all a lie.

Matt Bomer and Simon Halls have built a life together away from the constant spotlight of Hollywood. More than 20 years together, married since 2011, three sons and a life built around family. Sometimes the strongest love stories are the ones kept closest to home.🏳️‍🌈❤️

White fascists practice a form of nationalism that requires isolationism. Democratic socialists practice a form of nationalism that requires a focus on the nation and its issues while still being open to other people and nations. Isolationism will destroy us even further than Trump has already.
