@NoraGSlater @raynefq Verbalizing this kind of negative thought pattern, even if immediately corrected, is detrimental to early cognitive development. Building a solid foundation is primary. Learning to support it when under external attack should only come well after the foundation is secure.

@tinyfairytales I would be very happy to share. But also I think having a donation option would be rad, too.

It’s cheaper to eradicate homelessness than allow it to continue. It’s cheaper to tackle climate change than allow climate collapse. It’s cheaper to provide universal healthcare than allow corporations to price gouge us.

@N0_face_no_name @ProudSocialist @JoeBiden @BernieSanders But let’s be real, Biden is looking for any reason to tell Bernie to get lost. This is the perfect line to tout on MSM. I just think it’s a load of crap.

@N0_face_no_name @ProudSocialist @JoeBiden @BernieSanders Yes, yes, and true. But, having lived there, I’d add that Vermont is different. Phil Scot is a moderate who publicly hates trump. If it’s a lie so be it, but he announced that he would appoint "a more left-leaning type of independent" who would caucus with Democrats...
