Husband, Father, Grandfather, Runner, Downhill Skier, reasonably progressive, pro democracy, anti two party system, capitalism needs an update. Curious about the history of labor.

My family’s southern roots clearly took hold long ago for this northern woman. I named our small cottage house in the city, years ago!! How was i going to have a garden for an unnamed house?? I wasn’t. Now i need to to take it up a notch with a personalized logo. On it!

If only i had a book like this growing up. The gardens i would have grown at a much younger age… [ she says wistfully].

Out of everything, and there is a lot, the assault on the Universities is very close to the top of most egregious and brazen power grabs in this post democratic order.

Opinion | A.I. Isn’t Genius. We Are.
Fear that culture will be made obsolete by artificial intelligence is not an overestimation of technology but a radical underestimation of humanity.

The slippery glide path to a one party authoritarian state continues. ABC capitulates, Manchin and Sinema go in on a parting gift to GOP, big tech lines up to kiss the ring. Apparently there is no energy for resistance. 😢

A mandate? Consider this, the margin of victory was 49ish% to 48ish% —less than 2%. The House majority will likely be only 2 seats, the thinnest margin in a century. 74+ million people voted for Kamala; it seems as though there is plenty to work with. The real enemies are complacency and silence.
