Today marks the 100th post I'm making on BlueSky. I dedicate this post to President Jimmy Carter. He proved to be the embodiment of Human Dignity. Sharing my favorite poem, The Desiderata in memory of the rarest humans of our time. 🙏 💙 🦋

Let Portland be the blueprint.
Stay peaceful. Stay joyful. Stay respectful.
They want anger and violence.
But they have no idea how to respond to kindness and joy.
It throws them completely off balance—so let’s give them that on 10/18. #Pinks #MomSky #NoKings

Looks like Justice Amy Coney Barrett visited the La Prairie counter at Neiman Marcus and asked for a "Mar-a-Lago" makeover.

"For too long, our leaders have forgotten New Yorkers with disabilities. We have been failed by those with their own agendas, those who care only about holding on to power to remain relevant and serve their own egos." - Quemuel Arroyo

We’re in the second Gilded Age just like the first — when America’s wealth was in the hands of a few, money corrupted politics, and working people were abused and exploited.

It can be easy to feel discouraged, but the first Gilded Age teaches us lessons on how we can fight back.

I still have not gotten an answer as to why Donald would even consider pardoning Ghislane Maxwell. And Biden is not an answer.

A ceasefire takes effect, and Trump immediately uses the moment to trash American leaders in a campaign-style speech—while his regime cracks down on protesters at home and keeps the government shuttered. Watch the MeidasTouch Podcast at 8p ET/5p PT:

News organizations including The New York Times, The Associated Press and the conservative Newsmax television network said Monday they will not sign a Defense Department document about its new press rules, making it likely the Trump administration will evict their reporters from the Pentagon.

There are hard questions we need to ask ourselves right now. But no matter what this administration is planning, we know who we are—we love democracy & plan to fight (peacefully) for it. In a moment where knowledge is power, here is what you need to know. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

If you would have described the traits of hard core MAGAs and Trump ten years ago…. Those very same people would have called those people SNOWFLAKES.

Constantly whining, always the victim, always angry at everyone else.
