Mother-daughter bonding this morning: my young adult daughter and I looked over the sample ballot and reviewed any proposed amendments to the state constitution. Then we went to the registrars office together to vote. We’ve done this the past two elections and I love going together. I also love […]

It's Angie Nixon. JD Vance stood on stage and said I don't "belong in America." The crowd roared their agreement. This is the America that Trump and his sycophants have created. To them, the only people that belong are people like them who vote to keep extremists in power. Voting has […]

Almost 50% of the S&P500. This seems reasonable. How high will it go?

‘At roughly 49%, AI’s share of the S&P 500's combined market capitalization exceeds the peak concentration of every episode shown except the nineteenth-century railroad boom.’

charts showing this.

The "Art of the Deal" guy who said he could end the #Ukraine War "on #DayOne" and is still at war with #Iran 6 months after saying it'd be over "in a few weeks", says it's time for Ukraine to "get a new president who can make a deal."

We're working on it Ukraine. We're working on it.

Trump on Ukraine: "I suggest they get a new leader who can make a deal. It’s time for Ukraine to get a new president."

How many people in Canada deeply understand that the separatist propaganda is financed by US oil concerns and the nerd reich? Their intention is to dismantle nation states. They are doing quite the job on the US and I don’t understand for whatever coral that might exist internally who benefits […]

Arendtin Totalitarismin synnyssä tärkein kasvualusta totalitarismille on yksinäisyys, yhteisöllisyyden hajoaminen ja kansalaisveljeyden häviäminen.

Tuli mieleen, että koronakriisin keskellä mietiskelin tätä: kuinka silloin vielä hyvinvointia monille turvaavat instituutiot kantoivat.

Ja ymmärsin, että tällaisia instituutioita pitää oikeanlaisella yhteiskuntapolitiikalla vaalia, sillä joillakin saattaa olla tahtona murentaa niitä.
