To be led by a thief is to offer up your most precious treasures to be stolen.

To be led by a liar is to ask to be told lies.

To be led by a tyrant is to sell yourself and those you love into slavery.

- Octavia Butler (1947-2006), Parable of the Talents (1998)

@flylikeaneagle1 @SJO_Adrift @SusanCollings4 @propublica The medical term for miscarriage is spontaneous abortion. The treatment for a miscarriage is the same procedures made illegal by abortion laws. We tried to tell you all that and you wouldn’t listen.

"So in an effort to highlight his claim that Kamala Harris never worked at McDonald’s, Trump pretended to work at a closed McDonald’s where he served pretend orders to supporters pretending to be customers" https://t.co/KykzMAZz9F

Happy Indigenous Peoples Day! Just a reminder that Native Americans are not a historical people, that we are still here, and that the biggest injustice in U.S. history—the dispossession of land from Indigenous nations largely by fraudulent treaties—remains ongoing

1. A Texas county has reclassified a public library book on the abuse of Native Americans as "fiction"

The move comes after the county government excluded librarians from reviewing challenges to children's books

@redsoxfan426 @PeteNBCBoston Many people can’t evacuate due to poverty or disability. There’s also the fact that Helene already put a huge strain on the area, there’s been no gas in many areas since the weekend, and the highways are clogged. It’s not that simple.
