“If I have to create stories so that the American media actually pays attention to the suffering of the American people, then that’s what I’m going to do.” JD Vance
Where I come from, people who make up stories filled with falsehoods represented as the truth are called “liars” (as opposed to authors of fiction novels and the like).
What actions do I want to stop? None. He’s entitled to say any stupid thing that pops into his mind, as he often does. Where he owns a social media site, we are powerless to stop him there. I don’t go there. Haven’t for quite a long while. Thanks.
The system doesn’t tolerate Musk’s comments. We are powerless to stop him other than boycotting every product with which he is involved (Tesla, SolarCity, Twitter, etc.). So to that extent, many of us do not.
Please note below the huge (uuuge) decrease of DJT Media stock which occurred on the 11th from a close of 18.62 on the 10th to a low of 15.41. I wonder, wonder why.
BTW, this represents a decrease of close to 20% in one day in addition to the 20% decrease over the previous 3 months.
At the age of 65 I learned about the diaeresis. Used in such words as coöperate and naïve. Who knew?
Most consider it obsolete btw. Found it in a Bill McKibben article which doesn’t surprise me. Knew Bill briefly growing up and I’m proud to say I beat him at 1st affirmative defense in our very first debate on the Lexington High School debate team. After that it was downhill for me and good lord, look at Bill. A great and early voice on climate change.
So there we are at the Citadelle de Québec and the tour guide shows us the prison. Before going in she says, “There is a surprise inside. Guess who is in the last cell?”
I said very loud, “Trump” and everyone on the tour laughed.
I have not yet begun to defile myself. Anti-fascist, pro-people. I hope to see DJT and his minions behind bars soon. He/Him/Ho/Hum Fee/Fi/Fo/Fum #DogsOfMastodon #RocknRoll #SoberLife #DontGetYourUndiesInABunch
