@GottaLaff The Speaker seems to have repeated memory loss issues. Or he’s a habitual liar.

Mike Johnson is a lunatic christofascist.

That he is now second in line for the presidency behind Kamala Harris is beyond terrifying.

My butcher has started making sausages from seabirds.
Today he's taken a tern for the wurst.

(Sorry, so wonderfully bad I had to share...)

Wow. #MikeJohnson on [#ClusterFox] Sunday doesn't rule out voting against access to #contraception but then says "I really don't remember any of those measures" when asked about his past votes against reproductive health care

@GottaLaff media too. I am 72 and fighting so hard. Our Republican legislators in Ohio are so corrupt. Congress is full of fascists. The world is burning. But I am trying so hard to get people to care. Right with you all.

Almost a year since one of the most casually cruel layoffs in tech happened at Twitter and those laid off have yet to receive their severance.

If you stole this much from a corporation you would be in jail. But steal this much from workers and you get to comfortably sit at home while tweeting white supremacist memes without a care in the world.

Sometimes I get so overwhelmed I can’t stand it.

I never, ever would have suspected growing up that in my “golden years,” I’d be consumed by the real and present dangers of catastrophic climate change and fascism in this country.

Still fighting like hell, but that’s not the point of this post, so no need to tell me to “keep fighting, don’t give up.”

I’m allowed, as you are, to feel scared, alarmed, overwhelmed sometimes.

This is one of those times.

Protests 

There's ten thousand Israelis (or more) protesting outside their defense ministry. They are taking a bigger risk than a lot of protesters.

They are also at Bibi's house, chanting in Hebrew that he is a murderer.

One more reason -- and an extremely important one at that -- NOT to change the clocks! It's so hard on people with #dementia, especially those who experience #Sundowning, and their #caregivers. November is #AlzheimersAwarenessMonth and #NationalFamilyCaregiversMonth. Let's do better by this community -- 6.7 million and counting -- that already has so many challenges.

Ukraine’s people can count on their fellow Europeans.

Yesterday, President von der Leyen was in Kyiv and took stock of Ukraine’s impressive progress on its accession path to the EU.

She also attended the handover ceremony of our “School buses for Ukraine” solidarity campaign, delivering over 370 buses.

We continue to #StandWithUkraine.

I don’t normally watch videos, but this Arab-Israeli explains his experience with (the lack of) apartheid in Israel. *****
