Bored? Spiritless? Suffering from non compos mentis? Well that’s alright. That’s likely due to the nonstop American version of the Fratelli d'Italia.

Welcome to the all new All Things. You just need a dose of humanity. Or an awe-inspiring example of substandard humor.

I’m glad the Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to a LATINA, Maria Corina Machado. She fights authoritarianism with grit, integrity, and struggles to achieve a just and peaceful transition from dictatorship to democracy.

Venezuelan Maria Corina Machado wins the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize.

Yes on Prop 50! Don't let the fascists disempower people of color, democrats, non white communities by negating their votes. Arnold Schwarzenegger is doing commercials against Prop 50 yet he has a Guatemalan son with his former housekeeper who could be stopped by Ice any time... Shame on Arnold.

We the people can save the United States.
1) Protests. He feels humiliated when we take to the streets.
2) Hit them in their wallets. When enough people wanted to send a real message about Jimmy Kimmel & canceled their subscriptions to Disney, Hulu & ESPN, it worked!
What else has yielded results?

We've fallen down the rabbit hole. A Mad Red Hatter throws a Tea party; a Dodo caucuses a Mock Congress; a diapered Queen of Golf Carts screams for heads from the royal green. If this is Wonderland, there's no place I'd rather be than Portland.

...where there were only a few hundreds attempted crossings year before, I knew the whole party is going down the right wing migrant scaremongering rabbit hole. Basically dancing to Putin's tune like every other anti-migration right wing party in Europe.

Are there free speech holidays next? Free speech overtime? What are the free speech benefits and is dental included?
