Crone. Reader. Trying to err on the side of compassion. Reminder: the most effective way to get what you need is to fight for everyone to get what they need.

Beyond pathetic. So incredibly embarrassed to be an American. In the past we offset at least part of all the pain we caused by providing aid to many vulnerable humans around world. Now we’re just monstrous.

Don’t pretend to be journalists, CNN. He’s NOT “working to bring down energy costs.” HE’s working to save his own ass…

Shell’s refineries expected to make record profits. Profit margins of $42 a barrel, up from $24 a barrel. Cashing in on global conflicts. Bumper payouts for execs and shareholders. Misery for households and businesses. Millions plunged into poverty. Must levy 100% windfall tax.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $8 trillion. The entire bottom 50% of American households is worth just $4.27 trillion. Read that back. When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

She’s also Gavin Newsom’s ex-wife. Not an insignificant reason why I hope to all that’s rational that Newsom’s political career dies far, far from a party presidential candidate nomination.

If possible, stop or minimize buying from Amazon. They are not giving us choice, they have built a monopoly — a worldwide “company store” — to enthrall and control us. Bezos and his executive team do not need more money or power.

Though it’s hard to decide what is the most important, I hope defunding and revoking the ill-advised “charter” of the Dept of Homeland Security is near the top of list of priorities should Dems take control of the House and Senate…? We should never have created DHS out of our fear and bigotry.

If they’re admitting 81 planes, drones and helicopters worth $3.3 billion have been lost in Iran, imagine what they’re not telling us. The real cost is likely far higher, and our grandchildren will be paying for this unnecessary war and his reckless spending. www.businesstoday.in/amp/world/st...

50% of modern medicines come from plants. 70% of cancer treatments come from nature. The Amazon holds 10% of all life on Earth. We've studied <1% of it for medicine. We are cutting down cures faster than we can discover them. Every forest cleared = A cure lost.

She’s suing her own sorority house — Delta Delta Delta. The sororities aren’t allowed to have alcohol in their houses, but they are complicit because they funnel members towards the fraternities so they can drink. Time for the “Greek System” to go.
