Failure of communications across the board
News agencies are reporting the worst week yet for the rise in cases of Covid-19. All our institutions and organizations: faith, education, government, media…..how are they so woefully absent and , as a result, complicit in this mass denial of what is happening? Of course, there are some exceptions. But the order of the day seems to be that this Continue Reading
The magical, anti-science thinking of GOP “science”
When Mike Pence and Donald Trump speak of “science”, they are actually meaning “seance”. Magical thinking that fuels massive cognitive dissonance, forcing them to willfully ignore any real scientific data, and throw up a smokescreen that claims that Climate Science is divided on this. It isn’t.
Buying time for something better
“It’s clearer than ever that Donald Trump won’t be stopped with a scoop—neither will his militias, his lawyers, or his 50,000 “poll watchers.” The worst-case scenario is apocalyptic. The best-case scenario buys the next generation time to try for something better.” — Jeff Sharlet in https://ift.tt/30iMHAJ The 2020 Election Isn’t About Idealism. It’s About Survival It’s clearer than ever that Continue Reading
Voter intimidation continues to be championed by this POTUS
from Vanessa Burnett 17hours ago: · “Tweet today from the president of the United States. I don’t know what this means any more than anyone else but it sure looks like a push for voter intimidation.”
Oh, for a functioning Justice Department
Today Trump tweets in support of voter intimidation. We really need a functioning AG and justice department. But then , again, Holder (Obama’s AG) was relatively impotent when it came to all the voting shenanigans and corruptions that took place during that administration. What happened was little different than what sent federal officers to the south to confront voting rights Continue Reading

White House Petri dish nightmare
Trump White House is a Covid-19 Petri dish nightmare that NEEDS TO BE QUARANTINED from any contact with government for the rest of their natural lives. What a disastrous , dangerous group of humans.
Trump endangers his own entourage
The demonic Trump, strutting his evil. It keeps on getting “better” (iow, “increasingly evil” ) Some people laugh at me calling this “evil”, as if it’s some partisan rage. No, this is EVIL. Few better examples than the kind of oblivious narcissism here. This photo is obscene. Look at Trump, getting an ego fill up waving at randos. Look at Continue Reading
Naming the powers
Indeed. Biblical. Real. (Click the title for what I’m talking about here)
A rock to which we can leap
Biden is a rock to which we can leap to avoid the abyss, and still hope there is another rock to find after that , in hopes of finding a more stable place. That was my final sentence in my previous post, but I thought it worth repeating and re-focusing on the necessity of voting Trump out. Nobody wants to Continue Reading
Choice of “status quo” or insane denial and destruction
How did we get here? On the one hand, we have this: “Mr Biden has rejected the Utopian ideas of the left.” During an ongoing Ecological Crisis and a pandemic. I don’t find that encouraging at all. What kind of economic woes will we have if we continue to slow-walk/kick the can down the road? Even so, we are faced Continue Reading
A far bigger “invisible virus”
