Republicans are against anything positive that advances the rights of most people, especially if it happens to advances the rights of minorities. And as long as Republicans remain in power, they will persist in their regressive, oppressive tactics against minorities, women, and anyone else they fear pushing back on their corrupt power structure.

@TonyStark
The tactics of suppressing minority voting and inclusion signals to me that the GOP has hit the ceiling of their support and have difficulty growing their base. They seem to be scrambling to hang on to what little power they still have.

So. People WANT a Hitler to run the US? Because all morning/week/month/year I’ve seen polls (I know, I don’t give polls much credence either, but it’s consistent) telling me how Biden’s numbers have dropped and how Trump is beating him in swing states, etc. WTF America? W. T. A. F.!

@GottaLaff
Scholars of #authoritarianism (Nazism and Stalinism) have identified that (to the mob) evil-doing has a “morbid force of attraction” and that there exists a “propaganda value of evil deeds”. It seems crazy but it’s a real psychological factor in authoritarian politics.

Regardless of the election outcome, Trump is a regular citizen until at least Jan. 20 and should be treated accordingly.

The #GOP knew the same thing when they corrupted #SCOTUS by installing theocratic #Republican puppets.

The Alabama Supreme Court ruled that frozen embryos conceived via IVF are considered “children” under the Wrongful Death of a Minor Act. The ruling reverses a decision by a lower court that dismissed a wrongful death lawsuit involving three couples undergoing fertility treatments https://www.healthline.com/health-news/alabama-ruled-ivf-frozen-embryos-are-people-what-this-means-post-roe#:~:text=The%20Alabama%20Supreme%20Court%20ruled,three%20couples%20undergoing%20fertility%20treatments. #AlabamaFascistState #ReproRights #GOPTaliban #abortionrights #womensrights

“The horrific death of #Navalny in Russian prison, the brutal arrests of anti-war activists with almost life sentences, and two years of large-scale, bloody and demonstrably genocidal war in #Ukraine clearly show that the current #Russia will not end its existence with "agreements", a return to the rules and without more bloodshed. So stop thinking that you can make some kind of agreement with Death itself or with a bloody dictator.”

Within their own country and especially in other countries. It is time to bury the history of existence of "Putin's Russia" through military defeats...”

By refusing to tax corporations, and refusing to raise the cap on income that is taxable for Social Security, the republicans are purposefully trying to bankrupt the US.

Corporate taxes should be at least as much as individual income taxes, if not moreso.

And there is absolutely no excuse for cutting social safety net programs when corporations clearly are not paying anywhere near their fair share of taxes. Not even close.

It's a scam.

Good morning, friends. 🌸🌸🌸

5 February 2024

I was just thinking about learning how to drive. I learned how in cars with manual transmissions. Now days we are hard pressed to find new cars with manual transmissions. I'll bet most people born in this century don't know how to operate a manual transmission, probably most towards the end of the 20th century as well. Here's another thought, try to find a new car with windows that you crank up by hand. Hmmm ... I remember the first car that I bought where the dimmer switch was on the column instead of the floorboard, it took me a while to figure that one out.

“Cars are evolving to match the new paradigm. Soon, things like steering wheels, pedals and rear-view mirrors will seem ancient. More practically, we will all be better able to optimize our time and attention to focus on more important tasks, family, work, and self-care.” - Hendrith Vanlon Smith Jr

I remember when features like power steering, power brakes, and electric windows were only available on “luxury” models like Lincolns and Cadillacs. And of course my first car had manual transmission — called “three on the tree”.

“We will send a message to Russia and China too, reinforcing their frequently stated belief that the U.S. is a degenerate, dying power.”

It would take only SIX #GOP House members to join the #Democrats to force a vote on #Ukraine aid. Let’s find those 6 that can set aside other issues and get this done!

This afternoon, my poor lil gal was traumatized via an aggressive stray . Fortunately, my umbrella saved the day! She was still shaking when we got home—so gave her two trazodone, tucked her in with her furbaby, and put on her fave YouTube nighty-night video. [sounds of cat purring next to a cozy, crackling 🔥]

“Gun violence doesn’t originate at the schoolhouse door, and it won’t be solved there. Our policy making and political rhetoric urgently need to reflect that reality. Instead, elected officials have made communities less safe by under-funding social spending and school programming that contributes to community health and safety while expanding access and availability of firearms.”

The -controlled had the least productive year in history. They took 724 (performative) votes but only 56 ended up as laws. House member salaries are $174k per year, which is about $100k more than the average salary in the US. Why are we paying them so much to do so little? They should be paid the Federal of $7.25.

Dear friends,

@bookstodon #amreading etc. Here is my Tentative reading list for 2024. I am for 12 novels a year, but life, writing, my family, it can all get in the way. For '23 I read 12 things, but they weren't all novels, so thats a half pass. The list:

Any sequels I'm up to (3 trilogies in this case), lotr i read recently but I loved it so much I'm thinking of doing it again. Dispossessed was on 23s list.

Have you read any of these, what's your take? Any suggestions or definite 'don't read that!'

Cat tax, Elspeth hiding behind a Christmas tree. A naughty torti up to no good.
