I am an Earthling and so are you.
Figure out who you are and be that. Don't waste a minute living someone else's life.

When I was playing in the pool leagues I won two patches for making the 8 ball on the break in competition. That has much more panache than the imaginary Fifa peace prize.

I'm just an ordinary man who makes extraordinary omelettes.

I haven't heard a word about that ANTIFA girlfriend that ICE captured about a month ago. She must be really tough not to squeal on the rest of us, unless they flipped her and put her back on the street! If your ANTIFA girlfriend disappeared for a month and is back home acting funny, keep an 👁️ on her

Attacking all these alleged drug smuggling boats in International waters is laying the groundwork for what they really want to do. Once these attacks become passe', they'll move on to drone strikes on the homes of alleged ANTIFA members, which they've proven is anyone they don't like such as U & me.

I feel like I'm fighting the whole world sometimes. I can't get anybody to understand that I want paper bills sent to my physical mailing address because only having internet billing doesn't work when the internet is constantly down or raising their rates frequently. Keeping working internet is hard

*Affordability* doesn't mean a damn thing to the wealthy.

The Republican Party has no qualms about committing murder on the high seas or kidnapping Americans off the streets & have decided nobody but White people have rights. They will absolutely follow his orders when he tells his worshippers to shoot their democratic neighbors. Be prepared for anything.

They're putting Ai into everything these days trying to find some way to make it valuable enough to justify all the investment & hype. What's next, Ai empowered toilet paper or new & improved Hamburger Helper with exclusive Ai nuggets infused with Ai juices from the ankles of alpacas? Not buying it.

Newsom only wants *normal* democrats. Fuck that guy. These spineless centrists are going to keep bending over for the fascists & the wealthy will maintain their playground while everyone else pays so they can play. We need three viable political parties because the centrists can't be trusted.

The Republican Party gained power and continues to hold onto it by LYING. Every policy position they have is based on lies and misrepresentations meant to dupe gullible people. Unfortunately their strategy works very well with a simpleminded base. The Democratic Party needs a understandable TRUTH.

This time of year, around here people assuage their guilt for constantly voting to drive down wages & living conditions & increasing racial animus by donating to toy drives because *every kid needs toys*. How about voting to improve the parents lives so they can buy their kids their own damn toys.

There's a lot of consternation these days (like always) about what's wrong with young people. It's very simple. Stop exploiting them & pay them the kind of wages it requires to live in the expensive country we've created. Treat working people with the respect they deserve and then leave them alone.

These dirty super rich assholes are pissing me off. They hoard money and cheat society out of what they owe a country & people they exploited to the max. Then they suck off a dictator pretending to give back while supporting a White Supremacy regime bent on destroying the country. Go to hell Dell.

America is dealing with a political party stuffed to the gills with bullies. You can't placate bullies, you have to fight them. I'm not a big guy, occasionally some dumbass bully would attack me. I survived two bloody battles with the Sargent At Arms of a motorcycle gang. I'm still alive & he's not.

For my lifetime, religious espousing people have been given special status in America. They portend to have a special relationship with the creator which makes them better than everyone else. Poppycock. We're seeing now how duplicitous & disingenuous & gullible they all are worshipping an evil man.

When climate change began accelerating around here we started having devastating ice storms. The past few years we've been getting them more often. This morning the trees are weighed down and may soon start breaking down. Will most likely lose power soon because of it.

I don't think Ai is worth all the damage to the environment & massive job loss that's going to occur just to make a bunch of rich bastards richer at everyone else's expense. Power bills will skyrocket while the ridiculous US government won't make home solar available to the citizens to offset it.

The smoke show over the Guard members from WV getting shot includes a lot of talk about values and praying for their families but not a damn word about how they're all being used as political pawns to pump up Republican Party resentments and increase racism.

I worked for a large corp. that went bankrupt because of bad management decisions. They retained those execs. and gave them million dollar retention bonuses. They tried to corner the nat. gas market with *take or pay* contracts which required they buy gas they had no market for. Two mild winters ...

If we're able to wrest control of our government back from the wealthy criminals that are currently stealing our tax base, we need to tax them all within an inch of their lives. Go back to a 90% tax rate for the extremely wealthy and use a sliding scale for the others. They attacked us first.

Of all the things I'm never going to do, going on an ocean cruise with thousands of other people in a floating Petri dish has got to be in the top 5.

The wealthy can do any damn thing they want with their money. If it pleases them they can spend hundreds of millions buying politicians and rigging elections with outrageous propaganda and lies but if a working person so much as considers an adjustment to an existing account there's 1K laws & fines.

Capitalism has changed a lot during my lifetime. Corporations used to reinvest profits into upgrading their facilities & they had a commitment to their community. When stockholders became shareholders, CEO's began taking shares in compensation & pumping money into stock buybacks. Changed the dynamic
