I would describe myself but I fear the attempt would do us both a disservice, just now. My opinions are my own. Interests: Politics. Social Justice. Public policy. Animal rights. Literature. Baseball. Travel. Also a Fanfic fan (is that too many fans?)

Mark Kelly: "We have a president who doesn't understand the Constitution, who installed an unqualified secretary of defense. I cannot think of a secretary of defense in the history of our country that is less qualified than Pete Hegseth. He should've been fired after Signal-gate."

And it’s American legislators who perpetuate this unfair system.
The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.
Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.
The people who need help are not the problem.
It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

Dear AUS PM @albomp.bsky.social
The UN's conclusion that Israel IS committing genocide in Gaza has obligations for Australia:
• sanction Israel
• cease arms sales to Israel
• ensure Australians aren't involved

CEO pay is up 1,085% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 24%.
Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?

Donald Trump gives people permission to be their worst selves. His politics are not just representative, they are generative. His words seep into people’s souls and slowly corrode whatever potential for human decency ever resided there.

This Fourth of July, I am taking a moment to reflect. Things are hard right now. They are probably going to get worse before they get better.
But I love our country — and when you love something, you fight for it. Together, we will continue to fight for the ideals of our nation.
