The future of the Democratic Party must be rooted in investing in the American people — not Wall St., corporations, and consultants.

Otherwise, Trumpism will continue to use cynicism, racism, and distrust to divide America.

Enchanted Peace™’s buds open to a yellow/orange blend with orange along the edges of the petals. As the flower ages, she quickly changes to more yellow edged by brilliant pink. It’s like having two roses in one! This rose is wonderfully fragrant as well.

As Mamdani rode a Citibike in front of Cuomo’s apartment, a woman yelled, “Communist!” He turned to her, smiled and said, “Cyclist!”

Personally I prefer a society whose members feel some pressure to signal virtue over one where vice is continually rewarded

I remember when drone technology gave us immediate escalation dominance. That did not last very long. Arms racing always ends up reproducing and disseminating the “newly developed” technologies.

If we came to the realization that the earth cannot survive the environmental impacts of war, would we continue to produce more weapons? If we came to the realization that arms races always end up reproducing & disseminating the same newly developed technologies, would we continue…

Today I was reminded that

No matter how many clouds,
the sky will clear,
sometimes within minutes,
when there is a wind
or better a storm.
