Vonnegut quote about need for expanding ones experiences:

“Practice any art, music, singing, dancing, acting, drawing, painting, sculpting, poetry, fiction, essays, reportage, no matter how well or badly, not to get money and fame, but to experience becoming, to find out what's inside you, to make your soul grow.”


Kurt Vonnegut,

@cdarwin I am watching American government commit suicide .....and taking its citizens with it. Political system ,legal system, economy.

Completely moronically for no reasons other than few hundred billionaires are greedy and their dumb-ass supporters are racists.

US Guardian article today April 7:

" The more immediate legal framework is the Geneva conventions of 1949 onwards, which both countries have ratified. Article 33 of the Fourth Convention explicitly prohibits collective punishment of a civilian population. Article 54 of Additional Protocol I – whose core principles are binding as customary international law even on states, like the US and Iran, that never ratified it – prohibits attacks on infrastructure indispensable to civilian survival...."

@DoomsdaysCW

USA ICE facilities are not detention camps; no legal basis for them.

They are *concentration* camps for illegal rights violations and harsh punishments for civilians.

Robert Reich today posting:

"I want to repeat a warnings I issued a few weeks ago about both AI and crypto.

The question I asked was: What happens when huge amounts of money pour into a poorly understood and unregulated industry that promises spectacular profits for a few winners?

Answer: Many investors lose their shirts while the lucky ones make fortunes. At worst, the bubble bursts and takes the entire economy down with it. "

We have seen this such scenarios before.

@leahmcelrath.bsky.social

It is not Trump so much that disturbs me it is his followers and enablers......they are worse than he is.

His cabinet alone has 13 creepy, corrupt billionaires in it.....

@WarnerCrocker For current US GOP admin criminal behavior is not disqualifying for leadership positions. Their leader, Con Don, has 34 felony convictions....

@WarnerCrocker

Yes we all want to get rid of this illegitimate and criminal President Trumpo.

However legislative remedies, like impeachment , will not work with a GOP controlled congress. We are no longer a functioning democracy as well.

Various "other" actions needed to remove him .

Hannah Arendt "disinformation"

“If everyone always lies to you, the consequence will not be that you believe in lies, but that no one will believe in anything anymore. This is because lies, by their very nature, have to change, so a lying government has to constantly rewrite its own history.

“On the receiving end, you don’t just get one lie – a lie you could keep repeating for the rest of your days – but a whole host of lies... a people that can no longer believe in anything, cannot decide.."

@youranoncentral.bsky.social

Video of police in LA shooting women point blank with no protesters any where near the incident.

REPEAT: police or ICE in LA are on an offensive assault mission, not civil community policing.

No law enforcement training justifies such behavior in the context.

@josephcox

Trump admin use of AI:

@Daojoan ”AI can never be held accountable, therefore AI must be used to make deeply unpopular decisions.“

Thom Hartmann :

"..Umberto Eco, who had a ringside seat to the rise of Italian dictator Benito Mussolini in the 1920s, noted in his “14 indicators of fascism” that dumbing down the populace by lowering educational standards was critical to producing a compliant populace a fascist leader could easily manipulate.
“All the Nazi or Fascist schoolbooks,” he wrote, “made use of an impoverished vocabulary, and an elementary syntax, in order to limit the instruments for complex and critical reasoning.”

@aral

I agree with you completely and I live in the USA.

@br00t4c

Trump will bow down to and kiss the ass of any ultra wealthy person or party.

It is his only sense of value and worth......

@br00t4c

All relevant points regarding security for Air Force One.

Trump will just ignore everything or fake it. Security to him is a lock on the door...... maybe.

@chargrille

Musk and DOGE have engaged in the most extensive personal data theft activity in U S history.

Where is the data now? Who downloaded? Was any copied?? Who currently has access to all this data??

REAL candidate for congressional investigation.

Billionaires Are a Sign of Economic Failure

@br00t4c

US Constitution gives states right to determine specific election process for federal elections.

@dalias

Do the same hacking for the Starlink network as well

@br00t4c

No just a continuing Gaza tragedy, horrific enough, but fundamentally a moral bankruptcy by the international community...ALL of them!
