Exactly! Trump prolonged to the war - hoping to sabotage the election, without coding about the violence, hoping he'd get property deals from Israel to build luxury hotels on destroyed Palestinian homes.

YES. I'm glad to pay taxes to not be stepping over dying neighbors on my way to work. Christ.

Yes your taxes should support disabled people.

They should support homeless people.

They should support those living in poverty, children and the elderly.

This is literally the purpose of taxes, and I would far rather support those who need it than continue to enrich the elite.

New study just dropped linking shingles reactivation and dementia risk.

You know what reactivates shingles? Covid.

Want to avoid it? Wear a well fitted respirator and give yourself the best odds of avoiding Covid infection.

There’s also a shingles vaccine which may help reduce risk!

American gun owners are beginning to realize that the National Rifle Association has been lying to them about having guns to protect their freedoms and sovereignty all along.

It was always a marketing gimmick to sell guns.

Living a moral life in an age of bullies requires collective action; it cannot be done alone. Each of us must organize and participate in a vast network of moral resistance. From this solidarity we will grow stronger. This is what our current moment requires.
