At the risk of sounding paranoid (I am, anyway), am thinking that when Republicans seized voting machines after 2020 that a national emergency should have been declared because the software and hardware were fully compromised by bad actors. Or possibly.

Am listening to a podcast and they used the phrase, two competing centers of attention. I think this is a way of looking at the next 7 years of Uranus in Gemini. Well, until the decan where one twin kills the other.

I think the AI development is at this moment not really about the end of the world, and not really about increasing worker productivity and decreasing corporate overhead, but this is an arms race. Whoever cracks the code first has access to everyone else's data.

I'm not afraid the polls are wrong; I'm afraid the Repubes have already stolen the election in so many places. And this pisses me off because I just want to live in peace and raise my family and work on my house, and if the worst happens in November I'm gonna have to get subversive and allegorical..

This is an older story being reframed as incompetence, but the original story was how the administration was making cronies money by overpaying for their real estate. It's really a grift story. www.huffpost.com/entry/ice-sq...

Today, I attended a memorial mass at St. Patrick’s Cathedral, led by Archbishop Ronald A. Hicks, in honor of those who died on 9/11.

25 years ago, we bore witness to unimaginable suffering. But New Yorkers met that moment with a spirit of love, sacrifice, and solidarity that guided us forward.

As we remember those we lost, let us continue to take refuge in one another. Let us recommit to the work of building a better city — one that is worthy of the legacy they left.

I heard someone on a podcast that we should never condone the violence Mangione did, but what they didn't say is if in the same sentence or paragraph you don't recognize the violence, depravity, and brutality of our health care system, you are just an apologist. Profit corrupts health care.

Every person that died due to inadequate access to health care due to 9/11 toxins was a "win" for Rudy and their constituents, probably including insurance providers.

Listening to Mamdani and John Stewart talking about 9/11 and what the government knew and withheld is, based upon what we know now of America's Mayor Giuliani, not surprising. But what a piece of shit Rudy is. And now Trump was there on 9/11? Seriously WTF.

I'm interpreting some context clues here, but it looks like I just witnessed one separated or divorced parent dropping their 4 year old off to Dad and the pure joy on the father's face literally corrected 10 woes I didn't know I was carrying.

Dolly Parton is one of those people who elevates anyone she comes in contact with. From a Christian view you could say her saintliness uplifted those around her. So I believe this report. Although it only confirms how far afield he has fallen.

We’re going to hear about how everyone loved Dolly, and that feels true. But it’s good to remember, and to her credit, that she was attacked for her AIDS activism, her vaccine advocacy, her LGBTQ+ support and even, more recently, for her reading initiatives. She ALWAYS stood firm when it mattered.

I appreciate that Dolly Parton refused to participate in "dress respectability" and, by her own account, modeled her aesthetic after a town "tramp," who she thought was beautiful. She separated aesthetics from character and understood "classiness" to be about how you treat people, not how you dress.

I made a new England clam chowder tonight with some frozen razor clams we harvested in May, and was lamenting I didn't have any white wine to deglaze my bacon and onions. However, Stella Artois is just sweet enough and perfectly complementary and I hope someone else discovers this cooking gem.

Should read: guy who doesn't support Medicare for all (or just supporting universal healthcare), "Jeffries shares Democratic strategy with Republicans". Kushner isn't even in Congress. Jeffries is never there when we need him and is throwing progressives under the bus when it suits him.

One thing I find frustrating about America is Dems are arguing for childcare benefits and we should be arguing for one parent to support a household. Mom works, dad works, both dads work part-time, both moms whatever. As an American I value spending time with my family and raising my kid directly.

There are only three possible futures: a) everyone in the Trump admin goes to jail, rule of law partially restored; b) Dems retaliate in full, and maybe that's a deterrent; c) neither (a) nor (b), so lawless authoritarianism wins again, and when Republicans regain power they ramp it up even more.

The only responsible attitude for liberals and progressives to align on is that all right-wing grievances, claims and believes are not only false, but malicious lies. Nothing passes the mouth of an American conservative in public life that is not meant to harm and destroy the lives of millions.

There was a mass shooting here at a public event in Seattle. Sometimes a backstory arises and maybe it was associated with a gang, or maybe it was domestic violence. But I am starting to think it's a rise in domestic right wing terrorism. It's like our own brand of ISIS indoctrination.

If you consider yourself literate, or having literacy, then you need to have a radical stance to be skeptical of everything you read from any media. You need a bullshit meter set on extreme sensitivity. But you also need a sensitivity to recognize your authentic fellow human's voice.

We might be hearing, Trump is obsessed with his position due to Iran, or he is mad at Netanyahu. Or you might hear MJT is outside the fold or Tucker or Rogan is critical of Trump. Don't be fooled. Iran makes the radical Christians happy with Armageddon and the oil companies are happy with profits.
