I would have a difficult time trying to decide which parental relationship was more complicated, the one with my Mother or the one with my Father.

@jaketapper.bsky.social is researching an addendum to his book so he can show how Joe Biden’s mental decline caused Trump to forget Trump was president on 1/6.

I do wish stephanopoulos had included “you went down a right wing worm hole in your response”. That would have been sublime.

If you are able to, find a protest near you and go. Show them just how many of us are anti-fascist!

Do not tolerate intolerance!

Stop saying this

Can’t we all be friends ?

The answer is “f*ck no”

And learn about the paradox of tolerance

Reflections on History ~ The Diary of Anne Frank

The similarities are SCARY

Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes.

Families are torn apart. Men, women and children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.”

About 1 year ago, I pre-paid for 3 days in DC ( part of a sales pitch I think ). I have ZERO desire to go to DC unless it’s for a massive protest.

Dolly Parton has been a good person all her life. She does so many kind things for people. Compare that to someone like JK Rowling who wakes up every day and decides to be an absolute asshole.
