I really wanted to make a #MothersDay video using The Bigger Picture, but I just love this one too much not to share it again. All of that to say, make sure you listen to The Bigger Picture today or request it on your local station and dedicate it to your mom. ❤️

I got to attend a great concert today from the folk singer @crysmatthews.bsky.social in our neighborhood. Her music really speaks to the moment and deserves a wide audience on Bluesky.

Here in two parts is the song “Like Jesus Would” by @crysmatthews.bsky.social recognizing Bishop Budde calling on trump to have mercy. It speaks to this post.

Anyone who tries to convince you that flexing our collective economic muscle doesn't matter doesn't understand:

1. History (especially America's history).

2. most systems of oppression work in service to capitalism.

So what are you doing to get ready for it?
