Thus far, 2025 feels like being awake during surgery.

What a shameful day in US history.

The necrotic damage one cracked me up.

This was a great listen for me on my morning walk. It gave a lot to think about and it helped me understand the feelings of stagnation and frustration at myself I’ve been feeling these last few months.

Thank you kindly for sharing. Made a difference for me, and I’ll be sharing with others within my personal circles.

Meanwhile, Elon steals billions of dollars through problematic subsidies.

This country has more than enough money to take care of the elderly, the disabled, the veterans, the poor.

The problem is the fucking billionaires and their insatiable greed.

Ok, let’s say someone does walk up to me wearing overalls and a flannel shirt with a huge scraggly beard and says they identify as a woman.

How exactly does that impact any of us negatively?

Cut the cables.

Sabotage their efforts.

Why can’t people call themselves whatever gender they identify as?

Explain to me what the problem with that is.

Every effort matters, no matter how small.

Is there a neglected sidewalk island near your home? Plant rosemary and thyme plants.

Is there any water near your home? If not, find a shallow bowl at Goodwill, put some stones in it, and start a watering hole for insects, birds, and critters.

Volunteer to help plant trees and remove invasive species, pick up garbage from streams, maintain trails and green areas

These are all things we can do today or in small increments as time allows.

This is the Republican modus operandi:

“This is the fantasy we want to believe. And if the facts do not support our fantasy, we will accuse you of lying to us and call for your death.”

“Respect is earned” is the most boomer take ever.

No.

Respecting others is the default. Respecting others is the bare minimum expected from you.

Start by acknowledging that.

The important thing is that they grow into an emotionally intelligent adult, because it will allow them to better understand and protect themselves, as well as others around them.

Society is changing to a better direction when you raise gentle children like you are, even if sometimes it doesn’t feel that way.

I do not need you to respect my opinions.

I need you to respect our fellow citizens by not making deriding comments for them to leave like you did.

We’d prefer you would leave, since you’re part of the problem with our country.

1. Boycott and talk to others around you as to why you are boycotting.

2. Create fake amazing resumes, apply for high-level jobs at Starbucks, Amazon, etc.

3. Waste their time with interviews, then bail out. Tell them you changed your mind because they have a toxic reputation.

4. If you already work for one of these corporations, sabotage their operations. There’s manuals out there on how to conduct sabotage, but it can be as simple as relaying the wrong day or time for meetings to waste everyone’s time, or finding things that are not exactly according to policy and making a big deal about the importance of following policy to the letter, etc.

I’m so sorry. I hate playing therapist at work.

I feel like they just weren’t prepared to answer my question, so they just said whatever came to mind.

This person is not stupid-- rather, always a huge hypocrite.

If they come to Seattle we’re going to go fucking insane. His Tacoma rally back in 2016 was completely packed.
