My heart goes out to the unjustly sanctioned Cuba. Please everyone who can fund a way to donate, do so.

. (Spoiler, we probably won’t)

One method is very effective, it’s just foreign governments, billionaires, and corporations pay a lot of money to make sure candidates like that never make it out of a primary.

Slight disagreement. They pay a lot of money so candidates like that don’t make it into a primary.

Joe and the train crash is real union support. Please.

No, call her an out of touch wealthy elite who should have helped some actual leftist win two decades ago.

Did that Wednesday past.

Super Mario.

That’s because crapitalism values profit over people, the environment or even business practices that would keep businesses open. Americans have a really hateful view of “fiduciary duty.” It’s morally/ethically bankrupt.

These are dollar store brands. $4 milk, 4 bread, 4 eggs, $12+ tax. Location matters, so do food deserts. Last I checked, $12 was more than half of twenty.

I bet they cut it a half point after January.

Go buy eggs, bread and milk. Better part of a twenty.

Not yet, but I will, thanks! I’m in the middle of a project but it’s on my down time list. Thank you again.

I’ve watched this several times. It still hits hard. I have a feeling it’s about to hit different, here at home.

My dear friend, I also have physical, genetic and financial challenges. The Democratic party did zero to alleviate any of them. I could, and in the past did, wallow in self-pity and I sometimes catch myself headed there again. Everyone has their own challenges, affording is opportunities to grow, stretch and develop. The election is a new challenge, an opportunity to free ourselves from “the devil we know.” We can seek new solutions, or go back to old ones forgotten by history. We can organize and demand again affordable living, job safety, living-wage, 40 hour a week jobs, equitability. People fought and died to give us these things and we pissed them away by being complacent, voting blue “one more election.” Roosevelt didn’t embrace the New Deal because it was the right thing to do, he did because it was politically expedient, and may have feared literally heads rolling. While I, we all prefer comfort and stability, peace and tranquility, domestically if not abroad, we’ve grown complacent and cowed. This is our “dangerous opportunity” to get back what was lost, and perhaps more. If we fail to do that, we will face more consequences of our actions and our instrument inaction.

Fwiw, I’m supposed to be on about 20 meds, several considered absolutely necessary. I’m on none, largely due to financial constraints. I’ve found alternatives for Manny, the rest turned out to be oversell. Diet and exercise can heal a lot. Herbs can heal more, but do proper research and mind contraindicate. Perhaps exercise isn’t doable for you. Seek alternatives and please join me in working for change.

A mage once said that in mistaking poison for wine, the mistake doesn’t forgive and save your life. Bad paraphrase.

Existence is a blessing, and the lessons are hard, we just can’t cheat our way to the next level or graduation. We have fallen for the drive through mentality and that’s false hope and not laying change.

Did you completely miss this:

"There are many who do not know they are fascists but will find it out when the times comes.”

If truck rich people and corporations had more regulation and taxes and we stopped blowing up people, having all our fingers and toes in everyone else’s pies, we could do that.

Hrc was deeply unpopular. Biden was. Obama ran on personality and empty promises. He showed her was all too willing to sell himself when he first distanced himself from Rev. Weight, then moved his church membership. Phyrric victory, for him and everyone else.

Real primaries would be open, plenty of candidates.
