I've always been a progressive. Kind heart and big, political mouth. Retired social scientist. Career in Addiction Treatment & Substance Abuse Prevention. Lots of community outreach. Created school-based prevention programs. Love the kiddos. NO DMs please.
These are the words that still tear the heart right out of me. He's the personification of courage.
Hasn’t whined about needing a ballroom to feel safe
He's walking right through decorum and doing the things everyone else said were impossible to do. Welcome to a better America, BlueSky friends. I just love Zohran.
I'm short. 5'2" to be exact. I love my height. Seriously -- love being a petite, curvy person. And Jimothy -- I love him too. He's my spirit animal.
I can almost feel both of my parents spinning. My dad is just about ready to reach out from the grave and slap the smug off of trump.
America's Mayor. I'm not a kid and I've never in my life seen an elected leader govern like this. And he can balance the hell out of a budget. Love this guy.
New York, New York The city so nice they named it twice.
Except creepier, cringier, and uglier than Howard.
The Mad King now golfs in the shadow of Patriot missile batteries, builds underground bunkers disguised as ballrooms and hides in catering carts to thwart "obliterated" enemies. Not only is Trump the modern day Herbert Hoover, he's rapidly becoming Howard Hughes as well.
Two authetic leaders. You can see in their faces a capacity for compassion, empathy, courage, introspection, and even joy. Two human beings to be immensly proud of. Can't tell you how much I miss that, my friends.
So nobody's seen or heard anything from melania for a couple of months. She seems to have been replaced by diaper bag girl, who's obviously much younger than melania. I'd maybe check the Tower of London for her whereabouts.
Cadet Bone Spurs is the biggest coward that ever waddled across a golf course. He's the most incompetent and craven sociopath to exist. Two of his worst mistakes: 1. What he's doing to these sailors, and 2. Setting 100 people up as decoys for their own deaths as he hid behind the potato salad.
I don't think Joe and the Orange Clown are even the same species. They're polar opposites in every way. In the case of war zones -- opposites regarding courage, common sense, global competency, and statesmanship. In the case of food carts -- oh, please. Let's start with dignity and it's opposite.
Trump getting rolled out with the snacks is funny. The journalists left behind, unaware of the reported Iranian threat? Not so much. 😬 #SheShed
I can read data. My colleagues and I would never have held a job if we didn't gather, analyze, and present verifiable statistics and intervening variables. The magat cult today represents, at most, approximately 15% of American citizens of voting age. That's why we're seeing blue waves everywhere.
