I immigrated here legally. And still I’m petrified by Trump’s ICE operations in my city.

I feel increasingly anxious for New Orleans and the ordinary folks who just want to provide for their families and obtain a good education for their children.

I understand that a lot of folks have been misled by fear-mongering and powerful regressive voices but it’s still astonishing to me that so many have fallen for the idea that oppressively policing other people’s gender identity and expression could in any way be part of an enlightened future.

Brian Eno on how Lula Da Silva's policy (in Brazil) of giving money to the poor both helped those poor families and stimulated the economy.

This is one of my all time favorite oddball holiday LPs, The Joy Strings contains a jaw dropping "O Little Town Of Bethlehem" set to essentially The Animals' 1964 hit arrangement of "The House Of The Rising Sun" (a folk song about a brothel, for those not in the know). Cont'd #musicsky #music #xmas

Trump’s obsession with Sadiq Khan is pretty weird…

I bet that if Trump were to meet with Sadiq Khan, a similar press conference to the one with Zohran Mamdani would ensue during which Trump would say he would like to move to London

The people posting about Salvation Army obviously never got housing, utility, food, clothing, holiday assistance from them. For the record and I wish I could offer the receipts but I know in Idaho the red buckets go directly to services and not admin costs and they are not anti-trans. #Idaho

Well, it's kinda fuzzy...are there Salvation Army 'officers' ie ordained Ministers, who are LGBTQ+ folks? Yes - in some places. Are there SA Church members who are gay? Yes. Will the SA marry same sex couples within their faith community like they marry hetros - no. Not yet :-(

Is there a case for more work to be done by the UK Government on social cohesion - without the racial or discriminatory element?

So much of the narrative about migrants to the UK is about how they might change the UK. I wonder how much the UK changes those who have come here over generations?
