Maga / Republicans: Cruelty is the agenda. America: Welcome to the end of empathy and moral terpititude.
Some of the most powerful leaders & governments of the world are twisting into pretzels over a Mayor. A Mayor!
Are they afraid of the man who is comfortable being very public as dem/soc, or afraid if an educated public?
Reminds me of the 60s when similar leaders were removed to maintain status quo.

A Wizard a True Star - Todd Rundgren at 56 min. was the longest LP before his Intiation LP at 68 min. Side 1 starts with International Feel, ends with Le Feel Internationale, with snippits- Zen Archer, Rock & Roll Pussy. Chaotic beauty! Side 2 ends with Just One Victory, still feels powerfull today.
I've decided to listen to one album a day, every day, for the entirety of 2026. I'm open to suggestions but I make no promises about listening to them

"We found a faster route that saves you 30 seconds by going through the middle of fucking nowhere, click to accept, or not, we're rerouting you anyway"

Not sure if everyone saw this, seems very relevant to Ukraine, believing conspiracy theories, and any enforcement of existing laws lacking real teeth or urgency.

The NYT's Article about "Corruption in Ukraine" May Be Putin's Propaganda
Propagands is the systematic spread of biased or misleading information to manipulate public opinion - or in this case - encouraging other countries to stop supporting Ukraine's fight for freedom.

Americans have been dragged, tackled, beaten, tased and shot by immigration agents.
They’ve had their necks kneeled on.
They’ve been held outside in the rain while in their underwear.
At least three citizens were pregnant when agents detained them.

The intent here (at Bluesky*) is to gain a clearer perception of humanity. Where we've been, where we're going, the pitfalls and the possibilities, the perils and the promise. Perhaps even an answer to that universal question, 'Why?'

The Psychedelic Furs sang it: "They'd dearly make us pay for laughing in their faces and making it our way
There's emptiness behind their eyes, there's dust in all their hearts
They just want to steal us all and take us all apart, but not in
Love my way, it's a new road
I follow where my mind goes"
