Growth is beautiful. One day you stop apologizing for the fire inside you, and instead you use it to light your way.

La croissance, c’est magnifique. Un jour, t’arrêtes de t’excuser pour le feu qui t’anime et, à la place, tu l’utilises pour illuminer ton chemin. 🔥

Air traffic controllers aren’t “calling in sick.”

They aren’t showing up bcs they aren’t getting paid.

The basic equation of employment isn’t being met.

The party that hid racism and misogyny behind “state’s rights” for decades now has control of every branch of the federal government. They’re waging war on states in the name of racism and misogyny and laughing at the whole idea of state’s rights.

The guy who literally incited an insurrection is now threatening to use the Insurrection Act to torment Americans who do not support him.

(…because he literally incited an insurrection)

Everything Trump is doing now is a preamble for his regime's real goal: to invoke the Insurrection Act.

I don’t want to unduly alarm you, but you need to be aware of this imminent danger. It’s unfolding very rapidly. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/trumps-plan

Buried in the polls, with every American screaming for the Epstein files, the walls are closing in on Tangerine Palpatine.

Sending troops to every city you can in a desperate attempt to make martial law happen is not strength. It’s the last gasp of a dying regime.

If U.S. states have any degree of sovereignty, if there’s any states’ rights at all, it is the right not to be invaded by the armed forces of another U.S. state.

It’s odd that absolutely no one in media has been writing macroeconomic criticism of our present condition in the USA. The math doesn’t work: Fear. Lack of government investment. Acceleration of debt. Contracts that are voided Willy Nilly. Tariffs as a flat tax. All of this - is bad math.

Last year they claimed “illegals” were voting, without any evidence.

They used fear mongering to push for voter suppression laws.

Now they claim “illegals” are getting free healthcare, again without any evidence.

So they can make healthcare unaffordable for millions of Americans.

Enough.

There is nothing unnatural about humanity, we are sentient social apes not supernatural immortal souls driving avatars until they break.

Earlier this year, Dr. Jane Goodall sat down for an interview for Brad Falchuk’s new Netflix series, Famous Last Words.

The premise of the series is to interview people on the condition that the interview not air until the subject has passed away.

Over the weekend, Trump's deputy chief of staff for policy Stephen Miller repeatedly attacked judges, calling them part of an "organized terrorist attack" on the US government....

On Saturday, the home of a judge who ruled against Trump, went up in flames

Did you notice how “states rights” was trotted out to overturn Roe v Wade but doesn’t apply to anything at all now? That said. A National Abortion Ban IS coming. Prepare.
