I mean, technically speaking, I don't know for sure, but generally, it's sorta funny and curious that humans dress up in clothes to look glamorous. Ancient world all over. Even jewelry on pre-sapiens.

we don't just do nuremberg trials for trump and his regime and business associates. Even if all are sentenced with execution. We do it to show ourselves who we are and what is right. It's less about the criminals and more about ourselves and posterity. The US deserves to rescue itself for our kids.

I drive by billboards or religious signs for getting saved, coming to jesus, etc. I wish I could join a group to fun national billboards for atheists and others with messages renouncing religion. Please help me if you are aware of such an effort.

i wish in this digital age that congress would make social media accounts specific to each person's districts. That way with simple posting we could all write our local, state and federal reps. It has to be easier to send comments instead of through snail mail or email. Like a bluesky for reps.

Raise your hand if you wish fireworks were banned. This means you hate the noise and worry for pets and wildlife. You also get worried about the associated pollution especially in nearby water.

I don't mind whores. I feel it should be legalized to prevent disease and the inherent danger to women. Stormy was a great whore and I learned from her wit and intelligence. Melania is such a fucked up whore. She didn't care about kids in cages or anyone but herself; she is a whore I can't stand.

Hollywood is so over-rated. I suppose one day we will see Batman 45 and such. It's not that I tap into my child self and enjoy superheroes, but not the same shit again and again with the publicity machine and awards and fan critics. I still see other quality movies, but rarely. Someone help.

When this is all over, don't wait for some grand decision to show what republicans did to the country and how evil they are. In won't happen. They will throw out accusations for all of time, the news will jump in with both sides shit. You know what happened and so do some others. Find them.

How do I articulate my personal apologies to the world about what America has become? Would they believe me? I am scared for what we have done to the planet, stability, relationships, war, science......and I'm terrified about what we've done to our own country. A historical shame on us.

Yes, of course, I have some straight people I have loved. But most of my current life in my mid 60s is considering which straight people to forgive. No, there were no allies in the 60s, 70s, 80s. None to speak of. Churches, schools, police, parents, APA....all against me. Bad stories to tell.

I can't expect any straight person to understand how much Pride means to me in my mid 60s. Grew up on a farm, red region to this day dominated by churches and guns, went to college in midwest, yep, true what they say. To breathe better and see they were fucked up means everything.

I know the vicious republicans built this for decades. I know evil Trump is insanely leading us to immoral chaos. But I bring attention to the corporate dems who did not appropriately fight, protect, and explain what was going on. They allowed it. I've watched for 40 years. Schumer, Jeffries?

secondhalf74.bsky.social @secondhalf74.bsky.social · 23/06/2026
Straight people are like billionaires. Everything has always been theirs and they hate sharing. As soon as another get something for a short while "it's shoved down their throats and all they ever see". Old man here. The idea of straight ally just happened. Whole life none (including parents)

Just cuz you're straight doesn't mean I have to accept you, y'know? It would be more humane and intelligent if I did, but something to think about. I'm still thinking. Should the witches burned at the stake respect those that burned them? Thinking. Remember no AIDS research? Thinking.

So yeah, I'm a little touched. Here's an example. I kinda hope that everyone who runs for plastic surgery ends up looking like all those people who got it and ruined their faces. Here's another thing: I love my dogs so much, more when they were older. I would never want their faces changed.

Someone please ask Grok if the world is better off with Trump gone. I have a feeling I know the answer but I don't use Grok for easy questions.

Sorry, mid 60s here. The church had 1000 years to interpret the words of god and they decided it was anti-lgbt. So it tortured and murdered. But after 2000, grassroots fighting, demanding rights, ACT UP, winning suits, now the church jumps in with limp support. Fuck the church. Did god change?

Don't tell me there's no modern heroes! We have protestors. Man, do they fucking inspire me. So I joined in. Every time I come home I feel I did something to help this world. Protestors are our modern-day patriots tired of bigotry, cruelty, greed, wars, lying, and religion. Get a coffee and go.

You are not a loser or have bad luck. You would be a success in the 70s. Things got stacked against you more and more and now it's the wealthy or us. we can't survive down here and expect a safe, normal, life. Food, gas, rent....no way. Savings? Are you fucking kidding?

do you ever find yourself paralyzed waking from sleep and you can't even use your voice? It's sort of scary and weird. I hate it. I supposed it's still dreaming in some sort of way. We never talk about that or read it.

200 years ago the US was teeming with wildlife. Arguably, this was their country. Now the wildlife has vanished. It's a myth that hunters are needed to cull the herds. You ever see a herd? I live in the mountains. Hunters use this idea to fight for hunting. They believe the myth. Not true. Dumb.

secondhalf74.bsky.social @secondhalf74.bsky.social · 22/06/2026
I enjoy seeing wildlife. Here's the rub: I see more dead animals on the roads than all the ones I see otherwise. I live in the mountains and woods. Skunks, deer, raccoons, oppossums, woodchucks, squirrels, you name it. Way more dead I see. Such a loss and we are in a mass extinction event.

anti-smoking commercials worked. They were on all the time and we watched the habit drop to almost nothing. We need commercials on 24/7 on the environment. People just don't see what's in front of their faces. We must teach. Constantly. And now.

I don't really like Melania Trump. Yeah, the kids in cages sort of moved me fast over the line from sympathy to fucked up bitch. But I gotta say, who the fuck has a worse life? I mean she is married to that. Could you do that? A mafia wife whose shitty husband has nuclear weapons and guards.

ever notice how many christians were raised christians? Many jews were raised jews.many muslims were raised muslim.Many mormons were raised mormons. Getting the idea here? And each is sure they're brand is right. Btw, evolution is NOT a belief.Sort of disgusting, self-delusion or rationalization.

Nothing did more damage to the earth and fellow humans than the Abrahamic religions. The Native Americans and Polynesians were more earth-centered in their beliefs. Science is not my religion because it's real. That, arts and writing sustain beautifully.

I am earthling first, human second. I am from this earth and will return to it. I could say I'm from the universe but this exact planet gave rise to my exact body in this environment. I love the universe, too, but not like earth. I am an atheist. Our planet is my heaven in my life. I love it.

Nature and animals and war: no MSM is going to bring this up. I bring attention and sympathy to all the animals of all types impacted by war especially in Ukraine, Iran, and Lebanon. The noise, loss of habitat, loss of food, leaves them dead, tortured and survivors with ptsd. Ocean dwellers, too.

If I win the lottery: bury me in a canvas bag with no headstone. Donate most money to buying up land never to be developed or hunted with limited human traffic. Spend money fighting religion and promoting positive atheism. Help lgbt people; they are hated by family still.

60s here. Nope, we didn't have wildfires, or snowless winters, or crazy cold, or super, humid hot summers, or this many ticks. We had more wild animals. we did, however, have more pollution, smoking, and maybe litter. We fixed some of it but kids don't know the earth was not like this.

next time you look at the flag or hear the national anthem realize the deplorable, bigoted, republicans you know and accept they are a big part of this country. Now add to that all the stupid religious people. I haven't put up the flag since the fake iraq war. I am sick about the US. Depressing AF.

after a lifetime, years ago i stopped with the NY Post, NY Times, Washington Post, NPR, all tv news including MSNBC. Don't miss it and am better informed now that im out from under the corporate curation. Found podcasts and smart, informed people online. Feel cleaner and better, too.

Religious people get upset. there is nothing religious about cemeteries. People should be buried in cloth under the ground, no markers. Cemeteries should be open parks for nature. That is what this planet needs. These will remain for all of time when nature needs land.

we have to stop breeding dogs anymore. The shelters are full and these dogs need us. The idea of a purebred is not that important. I'm not a purebred. Rescues are great, great, great dogs. Please don't go to pet stores.

Mamdani wants more businesses for middle class and poverty. I wish he could organize a grass roots effort of a collective that would do what amazon does but the owners are the people. We could help to get rid of amazon, create jobs, and the money flows back to the people. This man is the man.

first thing I want if dems take control of the govt: put them all in jail who did everything. Second thing, build a wall....a proper wall to completely and forever separate church and state in this country. That's what "we're gonna build a big wall" needs to mean. Keep that weird bullshit out.

secondhalf74.bsky.social @secondhalf74.bsky.social · 19/06/2026
Post your response please: yes or no, if dems get control of congress they will impeach trump and his minions, go after filthy criminal billionaires and media and put people in prison and fine them a lot of money. I vote no. None. Hearings with no conclusive action. Mamdani would jump on it.

Middle class and upper middle class need money. Poor need more....way more. But $100k income is not enough to buy an apt in washington,or the places you think we need essential workers. My dad supported a wife and 5 kids and sold cars. we had a beautiful home, insurance, and went to college. 70s.

secondhalf74.bsky.social @secondhalf74.bsky.social · 19/06/2026
Not really that much of a stretch: the insanely rich insurance executives are murdering innocent people for justice. Obama would not go after one Wall St criminal for the 2008 crisis. Mangione was wrong but his resentment was honorable. Maybe Obama should've stopped these men. We need help.

Yep, I'm a reader. More like a studier cuz I read in that manner. Have been reading for 40 years....reading hard. One of my best moments: The purpose of life is to improve oneself. (It's harder than you think but after a while it gets easier. Also easier to say sorry and to be humble.)

Sorta bragging here........save two baby turtles in the past two weeks. In each case they were on the road. I did the first rescue wrong but moving him back to where he came. Then looked it up....move them in the direction they were travelling. Second one was great!! Feeling great.

Myths need debunking. Member when dogs and cats never like each other? I know. Dumb. But here's one: don't feed bread to birds. Most of them can't handle it and die or get very sick. Super weird, right. Now you have to unlearn that which is extra hard. Don't fee birds bread. Thanks.
