Some people you know have failed you in the past. Don't let your hurt stop loving humanity! Good people do exist, and good things do happen.
Today, with Bach's music through the cello of my friend Patrick Dexter from Mayo (Ireland), I am dispatching love, joy, hope & positivity to all of you.

The first thing I'm doing to protect myself is to stand up for trans people.
"First, it is no drag shows near schools."
Ass written, these laws are indistinguishable from the old laws that got trans people arrested and jailed. Anyone wearing "gender inappropriate" clothing - as determined by the arresting cop - is in violation of the law. If a trans persons DL says Male, and they're wearing a dress, that's illegal. Doesn't matter if they're just shopping for groceries.

And, despite the probable consequences of this, I can't wait for the first leak of what fetish porn is watched by which Louisiana elected officials.

Black soldiers were written out of the GI Bill because the language of the law left it up to the states for administration. Both Harry Belafonte and Sidney Poitier both enlisted through New York, where Jim Crow was not active. Most Black people lived in the South, where Jim Crow was.

Two thirds of Black veterans were from the South. One thing to understand about US racism, is anytime you leave something "up to the states," Black people are going to get cheated.

This is what conservatives sound like when they complain about cancel culture after saying or doing racist, sexist or otherwise abusive things.

I get it, but that's so limiting. Elmo is a fascist prick, and that's important to know. But also, the thing he's lauded for is Tesla - that's what got him on the national stage. And Teslas have problems. They crash. They burn. They're badly engineered and constructed. The build quality is crap. They get recalls. Elmo's focus on gee-whiz has compromised everything else about the cars. And that truck - oh my god, don't even get me started on that truck.

The Donbas region where Russian-backed insurgents have attempted to overthrow the democratically elected government.
It was all a false flag operation by Putin.

russia brings destruction and decline to the world. They free people from life and well-being. Pure evil that wears a mask of benevolence. #StopRussia

A very good sign, from a #Democratic win in a #SpecialElection in #NewHampshire yesterday .

This clear, blue victory follows a tie between the same 2 candidates just 3 months ago and a failed effort not to have an election at all by some Republicans in New Hampshire.

It’s another victory for local grassroots efforts and for organizations like #PostcardsToVoters which ran a campaign for this race. And of course, a victory for the district.

Stay involved.

Democrats romp in do-over of key New Hampshire race that Republicans tried to cancel-

Today I'm feeling grateful for my #neurodivergent brain, for its endless creativity and curiosity, for the empathy and straightforwardness it lends to my life, for its astonishing speed and power.

I'm sorry that I spent so many years unaware of its unique nature, trying to make it be something else. But I'm glad we have more time together, and I look forward to continuing to learn how to care for it and make the most of it. β™ΎπŸ§ πŸ’–
