Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 29/03/2025If "we've tried" to find other solutions to "those people" living in "our country," then there is only a Final Solution. Please, God, let me be wrong. 010
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 29/03/2025They're hoping it will come to a point where other nations won't keep taking random people, and then... Concentration/Forced Labor camps. Since "we can't do anything else with them." Germany didn't start with camps. They started with domestic terrorism and forced deportations. 100
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 29/03/2025I hope I'm wrong, but I think mass deportations are just the prelude. The government is deporting people because they don't look European and don't have "enough" documentation during a random stop. They're sending them to any country that will jail them, no matter their actual status. 100

Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 09/02/2025Make no mistake. The current administration is trying to make sure no one growing up now has any hope for being more than they are now. The billionaires need people who do the scut work, and Musk needs people willing to die for his Mars dreams. People are commodities to oligarchs. 000
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 09/02/2025It's never been about illegal immigrants. It's always been about racism. The people they're deporting have darker skin than the ones in Boston and New York who are being left alone. 011
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 09/02/2025I feel sorry for the people who paid to be there in person. I worked a football game that candidate for VP Cheney attended. The Secret Service protection made it impossible for some vendors to even have space, and exits were closed off. Sitting Presidents don't attend in person for a reason. 2212
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 28/01/2025This would be great! We need Senators like Pete! 020
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 28/01/2025President Carter put the family farm into a blind trust before starting his presidency. But this is what the current guy does. I keep hearing he ran to avoid prison. I think he ran because he figured out better ways to grift from the Oval Office. 110
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 25/01/2025There are a lot of people who want to keep us feeling scared. They want to keep us feeling helpless. They want to keep us feeling depressed. Don't give them what they want. Stay informed. Stay engaged. Help the disenfranchised. If all else fails, be a witness. Never again means never again. 010
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 22/01/2025He even warned them. If you listened to him and those near him closely, there are no surprises. What amazes me are all the people who figured they would be shielded. He doesn't care about anyone. 000
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 05/01/2025He could have pardoned them before he left Office the first time. I think this is just more con-man misdirection. He's losing his militant base and is saying whatever he can to get them back... instead of doing anything that helps those worth less than a billion dollars. 010

Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 03/01/2025I hate the shocked Pikachu face when you tell them just because you're female on social media doesn't mean you're looking for a "date" or into exchanging nude pics. Quit listening to the self-proclaimed alfa males. They don't know what they're talking about. 000
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 03/01/2025The more I see of Elon Musk's opinions, the more I remember the classic rock "Wonderful World." Not since Sam Cooke's love song has anyone been so happy about what they don't know. He's a racist, misogynistic know-it-all who thinks that since his money duped so many, he now knows everything. 000
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 02/01/2025I think this is part of why Musk wants to do away with a lot of consumer protection agencies. If they're gone, he can just use litigation stall tactics with anyone who might want actual products that work without trying to kill you. After all, he doesn't have ALL the wealth yet. 110
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 02/01/2025Why don't they just medicate for the seizures? It's what they did for my cat who started getting seizures at 2 years old. If you haven't gotten a second opinion, you might want to. This may be unnecessary testing. 110
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 02/01/2025The least we should have done is kept health insurance companies from being publicly traded. Once the company is publicly traded, the first concern has to be the stockholders. (Dodge vs. Ford Motor Co, 1919.) We really need to have universal healthcare, but public trading has screwed us all. 020
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 29/12/2024He was the first president I really remember and an amazing Statesman. May his memory be a blessing. 000
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 29/12/2024Updated count. Ten men, one woman, all insisting they're "different." No, honey, you're not. 010
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 29/12/2024Ours also has a seed library, so you can swap seeds with other gardeners. As well as slow cookers, board games, yard games, hot spots, and many other things you can check out. As well as amazing people who work there. If you haven't been to your library you should go. 0320
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 29/12/2024Even if he gives away 75% of that, he'll still have 31 billion and his income streams. I think it's less the 3 ghosts and more him trying to act like he's not a narcissistic egomaniac. Same reason the Golden Age wealthy gave money for museums, libraries, and the like. 010
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 29/12/2024We live in a rural area. We had a black cat that we thought had mental issues. One time she'd run up for pets, the next day she'd hiss and swat. Then we figured out we had 2 identical black cats. (Think they were litter mates.) Both now have homes. 1161
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 28/12/2024I'm not saying he's immortal. Like every complete narcissist, he doesn't give a crap about what happens after he's dead. I do believe his plan this time is to not leave the presidency no matter what. 000
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 28/12/2024Maybe this is Parr of the reason the CyberTruck looks so awful. Musk has no concept of design or functionality. (Or he's been watching dog videos). 010
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 28/12/2024They won't bother with the convincing. Trump will just do it. He has no plan to leave the White House once he's in. He won't run for office again, so it won't matter what ordinary people think of him. (He said if they voted this time, they'd never have to vote again.) 100
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 28/12/2024That once again, a white man with a a lot of disposable income doesn't give a damn about anyone else around him. 070
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 28/12/2024If you have not watched "The Legacy of Black Wallstreet" by OWN, you really should. It's 2 hours and amazingly eye-opening. I didn't learn about the Greenwood massacre in school. I've been doing some reading in the last few years. What are some other good resources? 030
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 28/12/2024ThAnk you for the context. My Coco was like this. Turns out she had fibrosis in the inner tear ducts. Your Luna is so cute. 110
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 28/12/2024He doesn't have the temperament and character to advise a toddler. This is what acquired wealth can give you. A complete narcissist who see other people only as tools to get what they want. We need to have a higher estate tax to ensure at least our homegrown ones don't turn out like this. 1251
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 26/12/2024I don't think it would work. Scrooge was a law-abiding rich man who figured everything wrong was somebody else's problem. Both of the ones you're talking about are law breaking misogynistic narcissistic idiots. Yes, they're worse than Scrooge ever was. 000
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 26/12/2024Would you like a province that looks like a mitten? We have a great governor, and we're close by. 030
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 26/12/2024It's a spoof. But Denmark has beefed up security for Greenland. Danes have stood up to bullies before. Even when invaded in WWII, they didn't back down. 110
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 26/12/2024This is the toddler level of Trump's brain. He got obsessed with it the first time. Now he can't let go of it. Has anyone told him it's not a great place for golf? Maybe he'd lose interest. 060
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 24/12/2024OMG! Now I'm gonna crack up every time I sing it! (And I'm wondering what wine pairs well. LOL) 1120
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 24/12/2024So sweet! Thank you for sharing these. I've followed you on X, and I'm so happy you're here. 😀 030
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 24/12/2024She's so amazingly talented. This is one of the times I wish I could line all these people up and give them a running slap across the face (a la Three Stooges), then scream, "Wake up, you snowflakes!" (Yeah, I get the irony of all of it.) 250
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 23/12/2024I think they need to run like a good charity. The CEO should not be making 7 figures plus bonuses and stock options. In fact, they shouldn't be publicly traded at all. And they should never have profit that doesn't get put back into health care for their customers. 000
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 22/12/2024I'm keeping my profile and interacting there. I'm on Blue Sky for my sanity. 😀 010
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 22/12/2024With ANY man, ALL women need to keep our guard up until we know them extremely well. And even then, some men are just better at hiding their true intent longer. Until ALL men understand that women aren't commodities but are actual autonomous humans, women will choose the bear. 120
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 22/12/2024If you put all food in a bear locker, most bears will leave you alone. And the bears who do come by will either keep walking or attack. No bear will come by saying, "I'm not that kind of a bear, I just want to hang out." And attack when your guard is down. 110
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 22/12/2024I'm being upfront now with saying I'm not interested, and the nicest reply I've gotten is a "no problem" followed by being blocked. I know this isn't all men, but for women it is ALL THE TIME. Yes, I'd rather be alone with the bear. Bears don't lie about their motives. 100
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 22/12/2024I don't have a glamor shot. In my profile and name, anyone should get the feeling I'm in a relationship. This is why we choose the bear. I've done everything to signal I'm not interested in anything romantic, or even sexual. But I'm female and on a social app, so I must be available. 100
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 22/12/2024If anyone is still wondering why women choose the bear... I've had 9 different men pm me since I joined here. ALL of them trying to act like this is a dating app. Most block me when I say I'm not interested. One changed their profile name and pic to appear as a woman. One deleted their profile. 140
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 21/12/2024One reason we have this mess is because when the Tea Party started, the Koch Brothers subverted them. They changed a group wanting a lower debt ceiling and fair taxes into a group saying abolish the debt ceiling and billionaires need more tax cuts. Billionaires only want serfs. Quit falling for it. 010
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 14/12/2024LOL. Thanks for the laugh (after I looked it up) 000
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 14/12/2024I didn't know this about Einstein. I like him even more. I have some reading to do. Thank you. 010
Melissa Knight @mrsknight.bsky.social · 08/12/2024If mental gymnastics to avoid reality was a sport, the GOP would win every World Cup. And all to keep wealthy, white men in power. It's really sad. 000
