Growing up did PBS tell us it's OK to love everyone? Where did I learn this stuff?

have children forgotten that we had a flower power/summer of love/ hippie generation and the impacts of that are still being felt today? jim henson, mister rogers, public broadcasting... all that stuff was a ripple effect from a generation of people who were fed up with protestant america's quiet stoicism.

never forget that shit. those people changed western culture for the better. pick up the torch.

Those of you who are not okay: What's going on in your life right now and how could we help you make it better?

everything's fine personally, but it makes me sad and bitter that i see a world where the light keeps getting dimmer. when i was younger, i believed in a bright future. hell, i believed in a bright future up until 2015 or so.

i don't see young people making good memories any more. i don't see love any more.

what can you do about it? make sure there are consequences for the people who are making it go dark.

‘God’s Truth’: Biden Reveals What World Leaders Are Telling Him About Trump

you guys gotta give these administrations a break over palestine and israel. this middle east policy has been ingrained into american politics since the end of WWII. it's really hard for one president to come in and undo shit that eisenhower and roosevelt engineered as a CENTURIES LONG STRATEGY. believe it or not, there are some big picture things at play here.

disclaimer: i do not support israel and think that palestinians are being treated in an inhumane way.

Charges dropped, so Louisiana trooper goes back on patrol after lying and withholding graphic body-camera video showing another officer dragging Black motorist by ankle shackles during deadly arrest

We have had the internet for 30 years, and with it, the ability for common people to organize on a scale never before seen in civilization.

Yet, somehow, still, we stand idly by and let injustice prevail. All it takes is organization and bullets, people. We could easily make these authority figures fear the common man as much as they want us to fear them, but alas, America is a wasteland of cowards. Oh well. I guess we get what we deserve.
