My goal is to spread kindness as the antidote to the unkind society we continue to be. Hopefully, these words will remind me and you to be kinder to others and ourselves. COMMUNITY IS OUR IMMUNITY. Pro-Democracy.

Parents: Teach your entrepreneurial children to be good business people, please. For the success of our future society. Teach them that honesty and integrity matter. Teach them to recognize that in other people and cut out the liars and exploiters. Even if that means making less money.

Just replace Tren de Aragua with Hamas, and it's the same justification Isreal uses. Now it's being used here in the US against Americans. The evil that's being unleashed needs to be stopped. No justification for zip-tying children in the US, especially naked children.

NONE. WTF are we doing?!??

I read somewhere that this building was in disrepair, and they wanted to demolish it, or it was going into foreclosure. I'll have to research it again. Check subreddit r/Chicago.

I don't have to imagine. It's horrifying. It's a deep betrayal of your friends, family, and fellow Americans. Americans did this to America. It's surreal, and it's only going to get worse. Good luck to you. Keep your sanity and protect your joy.

I totally agree. They see administrations come & go throughout their careers. This administration has pulled them into politics & made a spectacle of them. I sure hope they took offense to it & that they have sense. However, Michael Flynn was among them at one point. So, it's difficult to say.

WORDS @rockaby.bsky.social · 9d

I'm sure they are firing this man right now. We are watching America fall because of these morons in power.

WORDS @rockaby.bsky.social · 9d

I'm rooting for my fellow Americans to get us out of this mess. But, I know it won't happen until enough people are hurt personally. Wishing you luck through it all!
