just a note to let folks know that I don't use Bsky much. 300 characters do not make for a serious discussion of complex issues. That's what I do, so there's not much here for me. Anyone interested, you will find me on Substack: redslider.substack.com

I gave up on this too soon. It seems Rep. Pocan @pocan.house.gov is doing just what I suggested successfully. NOW IT'S UP TO THE REST OF US TO CALL OUR OWN LOCAL DEM HQs AND REPS AND TELL THEM TO DO IT!, & for them to push the idea up to the DNC as a national tactic. DO IT NOW!

@livingmytruth.bsky.social toes right up to the line of being a trolling MAGA. But just enough real critique of the left to keep him around for awhile. Still considering blocking him for his really awful poetry. An insult to poets. If they were any better, I would block him.

You know, everyone uses the regimes of Hitler and Mussolini as familiar tropes for the coming of the Mad King. But I've yet to hear anyone taking a close look at the imperial reign and cult of Augustus Caesar. It's really quite instructive.

Work in progress: transposing Bashō haiku into a modern context. Given this moment in history, definitely not as much fun as cherry blossom viewing in Kyoto. Series being posted on my FB page 'Red Slider'

@timothysnyder.bsky.social DO NOT OBEY IN ADVANCE. Do not adjust/accept what you think a tyrant might want. Exactly what we are doing now, presuming before Jan 20 that the "President-elect" must also become the President. THIS IS NOT-OBEYING: www.poems4change.org/docs/harris-openletter.pdf

Not to mention what will happen when the Mad King is on the throne and RFK is in charge. The CDC will disappear, along with NIH and a lot of other public health services as premier health agencies. Look forward to covid, measles, polio, ebola and plague COMING TO YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD SOON!

Bluesky is of limited value to me. I don't write in memes, reactions, or condensations. My Facebook page is 'Red Slider'. Focused on this mess we've gotten ourselves into and how to get out of it. Intro to my take at poems4change.org/dark-ages/ha... recent broadside:
