The memory of my father (World War II/Korea, Army/Air Force) makes me determined to resist Trumpism. Former trauma therapist, chicken mama, 70-something homesteader, grand mess-maker, editor/publisher of #poetry @futurecyclepress.bsky.social. 🚫 DM

Bolsonaro's loss is not just a loss for Bolsonaro. It's a loss for Trump. For Musk. For Milei. For Netanyahu. For Farage. For Meta and Zuckerberg. For the meat barons, the fossil fuel corporations, and the rest of the neocolonial looters. And it is a massive win for humanity and the living planet.

My pal Danielle Koenig shared that her father Walter Koenig passed away last night at age 90. A performer whose kindness and warmth shone through the screen. He will be well remembered.

Just last month, on Sept. 14, he turned 90, on the same day Brad and I celebrated our 18th wedding anniversary. I will always treasure that he and I shared that date.

I’m not a political journalist, so was gladly surprised at the community I found here last night. To Americans anxious about the upcoming elections, a key thing we learned in Brazil that might help you: DO NOT engage with the far-right online. Don’t share rage bait. Amplify your people. Ignore them.

So sad to hear this.

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

It’s not just about who’s with you on stage. It’s about who’s with you backstage. Grateful for her love and partnership yesterday and every day…

This is just pure racism. Republicans objectively are campaigning on little more than bigotry.

I keep seeing posts from Republicans pretending to be insulted by Barack Obama's Cheesecake Factory quip because most Americans supposedly think it serves haute cuisine. First, it does not. And you know that. Second, his remark wasn't about the food. It was about the over-the-top golden decor.

Kansas Dem Sen. nominee Adam Hamilton on trans rights: β€œI don’t think we should take a small group of people and bully them, pick on them, and hurt them. I understand one thing really clearly when it comes to transgender people, and that is Jesus told me I was to love my neighbor as I love myself”

Humbled to have the 44th president with us in our movement to demand more for working people in Michigan. Change is in the air. 🀝

In his acceptance speech, Lula says he will work to regulate digital platforms in Brazil. β€œDigital crimes must be dealt with like real-life crimes.” This comes after Meta directly interfered with the Brazilian elections, favouring FlΓ‘vio Bolsonaro.
