Listen to Senator Warnock. This economy is a disaster of Trump’s own making. Make sure that your members of Congress know that you’re an informed voter, and that you’re fed up! 📱202-224-3121

"No Taxation without Representation" is a phrase from the American Revolution. It's relevant today, concerning Trump & his corrupt self-aggrandizing pet projects, war strikes & spending w/o Congressional consent, as well as multi billionaire oligarchs' wage theft & tax evasion.

"Uneducated Democracy" "…In dire need of reason In a truly deaf nation Without an education there is no real democracy Without an education there is only autocracy... …Open your eyes Open your mouths Close your hands And make a fist Down with the system As we lay helpless against the machine..."

Serj Tankian, "Harakiri." "Uneducated Democracy" lyrics.

Happy Earth Day! My hot-take: Time to recognize that we are in an extinction event of our own making. The changes can seem slow, but the only known source of life in the universe loses biodiversity every day. The extinctions are a countdown to global collapse. Demand accountability from leadership!

If you like dark poems, I call this one, "Ode to Humanity." Say goodbye to the animals. As they go extinct. To the species you aren't familiar with. Disappearing every day. Say goodbye.

The unhinged dementia king-wannabe is now openly celebrating death on social media, almost quoting the Joker and I don't think he has a clue. Even if you are a blue dot in a red state, please vote!

Jack Nicholson as the Joker as Trump:

Robert Mueller just died? 
Good, I'm glad he's dead!

This is what oligarchy looks like: Elon Musk, the wealthiest man alive, spent $290 million to elect Trump. Since Election Day, Musk became $548 billion richer while his companies (SpaceX & Tesla) paid $0 in federal income taxes last year after making $13.7 billion in profits.

Can we agree to say NO to multibillionaires? They hoard. They stockpile. They profit. Endlessly. And the Ketamine Nazi wants to be the first trillionaire? Tax the surplus & give it back to the public! Fund SNAP & affordable housing! Counter wage theft! Humanity can be sustainable. Tax the Rich!

You cannot have a functioning economy when so few people at the top hold so much of the nation’s wealth. It’s not sustainable.

The dotard has called for 6 Democrats to be put to death for urging our troops to uphold the US Constitution & follow the law instead of illegal orders. He calls it sedition. Reality check on isle 47. That's not sedition. Sedition isn't punishable by death.

Ignorant & hateful people use "Woke" & "DEI" as slurs. Don't let their bigotry or lack of empathy rob you of your ability to be kind & aware. We all see Ice in the streets, violently kidnapping people in broad daylight w/o due process. Racial & sexual prejudice is real. Social injustice is real.

Team FOLON released their free "Rabbit and Pork" DLC a month ago, significantly upgrading Fallout: London. It hasn't crashed a single time on my current playthrough. IMO, it's the GOAT Fallout 4 mod. And it's all free & automatic to install once you buy Fallout 4: GOTY edition on the GOG website.

A pic in front of a pool table, of my current character in Fallout: London, which released their 1st DLC, "Rabbit & Pork" a month ago, including:

80 Fully-Voiced NPCs with 8000+ New Dialogue Lines
30 New Quests & Minigames
30 New Weapons & Armours
70 Random Encounters
New Animal Companion & Player Home
New content for early faction introductions
Thousands of bug fixes & improvements

(It can be installed from Steam, but you will have to install the mod yourself.)

I feel the urge to prepare a eulogy for oceanic life. The once dense biodiversity is thinning in the toxic depths of warm sewage, oil, & plastic. Radioactive filth will continue to make waves on the shore even after most life has gone from the saltwater ecosystem. Mass extinction is happening.

Good satire doesn't punch down; that's bullying. It punches up. It is the use of humor, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose & criticize stupidity or vice. Satire is not violence. It is expressing freedom of speech, sharing ideas and bringing attention to real problems. Just saying.

An ode: There's nowhere to flee, there's nowhere to hide, The Earth is too small, we can't abide By the AI coming, there's no use running It's either gonna save us or start the gunning In this race you can't leave, there's nowhere to stay, We're all vulnerable lifeforms at the end of the day.

Agent Orange is undercutting the foundations of society that support the enormous financial weight of his ego with fascistic oppression. It's not just immigrants targeted, potentially anyone can be denied due process by ICE & get kidnapped & tortured in a local camp or foreign prison. Resist & Vote!
