β€œAnswer.

That you are hereβ€”that life exists & identity;
That the powerful play goes on & you will contribute a verse.”

―Walt Whitman

O Me!
O life!
of the questions of these recurring;
Of the endless trains of the faithlessβ€”of cities filld with the foolish;
Of myself forever reproachin myself, for who more foolish than I who more faithless?
Of eyes that vainly crave the light β€”of objects meanβ€”of the struggle ever renewd;
Of the poor results of allβ€”of plodding & sordid crowds I see around me;
Of empty & useless years of the restβ€”with the rest me intertwined;
The question
O me!
so sad
recurrin
What good amid these
O me, O life?
How American Racism Influenced Hitler

Alex Ross on the scholars mapping the international precursors of Nazism.

The New Yorker
Republicans are exhausting.

So Republicans want to pass a bill that would essentially destroy the middle class.

So they can complete turning America into a 3rd world country where the poor are dirt poor & the rich are filthy rich.

And they haven't even been in power a full month.

We still have 2 more years to go.

They will only get me brazen with their attacks against our democracy, reproductive rights, same sex marriage laws, voting rights, etc.

Brace yourselves, we are only at the start of this bumpy ride.

Hitler was inspired by the Jim Crow laws in the south.

He infected Europe with it, it was defeated during WWII in Europe but it never quite left the South where it's still alive & well, tragically.

Still perplexes me that brave black men fought in WWII side by side with their fellow Americans, having each other's backs, defeating white supremacy in Europe against Hitler, only to come back home to Jim Crow south, be denied entrance at a diner where their fellow white Americans they fought side by side with overseas eat a meal as they wait by the window & watch.
They obliterated white supremacy that was inspired by Jim Crow laws all over Europe to having to accept it & live with it at home.

What pisses me off even more is how Republicans claim to love our troops when they're fighting a war that helps them profit & line their pockets with blood money but when vets ask for a hand here at home on U.S. soil, Republicans give them a kick to the curb.

Santos just proved not only that Republicans don't give a f*ck about our vets but that they will gladly take advantage of our vets when they need help & subsequently get their dog killed, when they instead steal from vets & make it worse.

The entire day has passed & I'm still nauseated & as angry as I was when I 1st read about human boil on the crack of Congress, George Santos, defrauding & stealing from a disabled Navy vet who just wanted help to give the companion he's had for 10 years, his dog that kept him from committing suicide twice, a chance to live another decade with a life saving surgery.

Instead he had to pan handle to put his dog down, that triggered his PTSD & made his mental health worse.

Rot in hell, Santos! 🀬

Jacinda Ardern stepping down as New Zealand PM on Feb 7.

"I hoped I'd find what I needed to carry on over that period but unfortunately I haven't, I'd be doing a disservice to NZ to continue." -Arden

She took time to consider her future over summer.

She became the youngest female head of government in the world when elected PM in 2017 at 37.

She choked up as she detailed 6 challenging years in the job took a toll.

A vote will determine her replacement soon.
