Just a gal in search of the truth or the best reality as I understand it. Am tired of the misinformation that is spewed out and taken for what is real. Lies that hurt so many...so I hope to spread the truth (as I see it) and add some positivity along the way with my #tolerance4all that I started during COVID to help me balance out those feelings

“The US is no longer a democracy. One of the most credible global sources on the health of democratic nations now says this outright. The Varieties of Democracy Institute at Gothenburg University reaches the alarming conclusio … that the US is hurtling towards autocracy at a faster rate than Hungary and Turkey.” 1/

‘Trump is aiming for dictatorship’. That’s the verdict of the world’s most credible democracy watchdog

Sweden’s V-Dem Institute warns that the US is no longer a liberal democracy. And autocracy is creeping across Europe too, says writer Martin Gelin

‘The…“liberal democracy index” shows that the speed with which US democracy is being dismantled is unprecedented in modern history. [M]ain factor is a “rapid and aggressive concentration of powers in the presidency”, Lindberg says. Congress has been marginalised, jeopardising the “checks and balances” … so crucial to US democracy. [C]ivil rights have been rapidly declining and freedom of expression is now at its lowest level since the 1940s.’ 4/4

Quote:

The civil rights package also prohibits the city from helping other states investigate or prosecute people who come to Portland seeking access to gender-affirming health care.

“At a moment when hundreds of anti LGBTQIA2S+ bills are moving across the country, we are saying clearly that Portland is not neutral …"

“We stand with families seeking safety, with providers delivering evidence-based care, with members of our community.”

A concrete example: When my mother had to undergo chemotherapy for the first time, she told me about it. After that phone call I had to be gently reminded by someone else that she might like it if I joined her for support. Which turned out to be true and was a good shared experience.

Don’t assume she will ask you. @grimalkina https://mastodon.social/@grimalkina/116245169836112433

Because mastodon is like a 99% male audience, I will say this: if you have an aging mother you are in relationship with and care about, do NOT make her go through medical stuff alone. I am skilled & mean enough to fight through medical stuff and even so you would not believe how bad it is. Just accept that you cannot imagine.

I talk to a lot of people's aging moms and they are abandoned & alone even in nice families. I don't care how awkward it is, you have to try to ask them about it.

It's totally obvious to see they had no plan and now they're confirming that they had no plan

Arghavan Salles, MD PhD on Instagram: "If you’re wondering why this war has no clear justification from the US government, it’s because…wait for it…they have no idea what they’re doing. I’m sure you are just as shocked as I am. I’m sharing Senator Murphy’s summary of the briefing today to raise awareness. They said it’s not about nuclear weapons and it’s not about regime change. What is it about? Damaging Iran’s military. When they rebuild, what happens? Bomb them again. I’d love to talk to the mastermind who came up with this sophisticated and definitely-effective plan. Iranian lives hang in the balance while tweedle dee and tweedle dum over here try to get their heads on straight and come up with a plan…11 days after they started a war on a whim. #freeiran #iranwar"

It really is disgusting that even when these girls were reporting this, nobody did anything. Imagine how many girls/boys/women could’ve been saved from this if someone had done something in the early 90s. And no, this ranch was not torn down. It was sold in 2023 and renamed. It’s now being renovated. @repstansbury Breaking Epstein Investigation Update! NM DOJ has begun searching Zorro Ranch."
