Retiree. US/EU/UK/California Girl. Enjoy reading, writing short stories, music, gardening, fighting injustice & inhumanity. No time for complacency. The entire planet and the human race are in serious trouble. Defend Ukraine & democracy.
"Menstrual cycle classes" as their great suggestion to improve fertility. What? Classes - the suggestion from people who have no idea what a menstrual cycle is and have probably never had one. Guessing *all* those men have great ideas for 'class'.
A vile creep running against a bin (that may win). Politics 2026, everywhere. It's like we're all living a bad remake of a Fellini film at this point.
The Republican focus is on 'teens' getting pregnant. For some of them, that means at age 13. Recall Alan Dershowitz (Epstein's lawyer) saying statutory rape was an 'outdated concept' and the age of consent should be lowered to 14. See them for who and what they are.
Theodore Roosevelt understood the job, the responsibility, the duty, the leadership, and the assignment. So unlike the current occupant.
The so-called 'journalists' saw it coming, wrote no warnings, triggered no alarms, left us on our own. Here's where we are.
Never knew we liberals were apparently omnipotent. Retired now, but will definitely be updating my resume.
Shades of this observation from the character Meryl Knight (played by Tina Bursill) on Australia's "Doctor, Doctor"aka "The Heart Guy":
Also "the government is coming to take your guns," "illegal immigrants taking your jobs," and all the other propaganda and sloganeering for which the Republicans have been famous since newspapers were created.
Not to leave the entire event insufferably boring and unforgettable, there's this guy - in case anyone missed said 'excitement' reported on by the UK's Daily Mail (I'll see myself out!):
It's the same proven bunk as the billionaires forever insisting "if you tax us, we'll leave". Oh really? And go where, sunshine?
"Medieval" like the Sistine Chapel. "Medieval" like the brick/stone arched bridges across European that still stand today. The medieval-thinking Romans discovered arches made everything stronger. Or the glorious medieval blue of stained glass windows at Chartres that still aren't identifiable.
The only minority destroying this country is the billionaires. Never let them get away with it. The French knew how to deal with them - so they did.
Religion is a stock. It's an investment in keeping people in their place. Trump knows that; it's why he courts their votes. From baskets passed at Mass to the temples and synagogues, it is all about money and the power that goes with it. As Napoleon so brilliantly articulated:
As a white woman, this enrages me - as well as the screenshot below from Musk's cesspool. Kevin Bass's bio says he got kicked out of med school in Texas for "telling the truth." In the 21st Century, racism is still an indefatigable global mentality that purposefully knows no bounds.
Thinking the decent people of Belfast and Derry - and everywhere else around the world - would rather deport the racists than the immigrants.
Two more superb cartoon interpretations of where we all are: bsky.app/profile/guyv... Guy Venables and Ann Telnaes (formerly WaPo):
From that 'other' site - and so well said. Trump is a loser and a sissy.
