"...if you wanted
to drown you could,
but you don’t
because finally
after all this struggle
and all these years
you simply don’t want to
any more
you’ve simply had enough
of drowning
and you want to live and you
want to love..."

@craigreinbold @AGNIMagazine Thank you @craigreinbold for sharing your knowledge with all of us so beautifully. “Joy” is an ever-evolving thing...

People said we’d never get a Russia probe under full GOP control. We did.

Said we’d never win back Congress or the White House. We did.

Said the former guy would never be impeached. He was. Twice.

So now to everyone who says we’ll never end the filibuster:

Challenge accepted.

@RubinReport @walterkirn @thevivafrei @DrKarlynB I think the backdrop goes very nicely with the topic at hand

White supremacy is the greatest threat to our democracy, and voter suppression is white supremacist violence, plain and simple.

"The only thing that Juneteenth can and should mean to white people in 2021 is an opportunity to reckon with the 156-year history and very present threat of white denialism." From @ProfessorCrunk:

Federal action is imperative to defend Americans' freedom to vote. Let's keep the heat on - we need voters across the country to keep calling their Senators for #HotCallSummer and tell them to pass the #ForThePeopleAct. Call: 888-453-3211.

One day after 8 people were killed due to hatred of Asian women, how dare 172 Republicans vote against the Violence Against Women Act?

The most contentious part of the act? Preventing people convicted of domestic abuse or stalking from purchasing a firearm.

“I used to go out I'd know everyone I saw / Now I go out alone if I go out at all” — a @TheWalkmen-inspired Covid grocery store story.

“Stories move in circles. They don’t go in straight lines. So it helps if you listen in circles. There are stories inside stories and stories between stories, and finding your way through them is as easy and hard as finding your way home.” ~ Naomi Newman

I get it now. Ted and Heidi Cruz wanted their children to be safe, to have basic sanitary services like heat and running water, to leave behind a third-world apocalyptic nightmare for a safer place. Like so many parents before them, they decided to cross the Mexican border.

Most Americans insisting that people 'move on' from the events of Jan 6, 2021 still haven't gotten over the Civil War.
