sometimes i wonder how many versions of myself i’ve outgrown without even noticing. i look back at old photos and remember the thoughts i used to carry, the dreams i thought would save me. it’s strange how you can live inside yourself every day and still not realize you’re evolving. it’s only when you look back that you realize how far you’ve come, how many lives you’ve already lived in the same skin.

The next president has to do two things: 1) right the wrongs of Trump and go after those who broke the law and were corrupt. 2). Then spend time divesting power from the presidency and building real guardrails and passing laws like, “the president is not immune” etc.
Oh and get the money out of politics

BREAKING: Senator Elissa Slotkin just ripped Kristi Noem to shreds for not knowing what Habeas Corpus is. This is the kind of energy we need right now.
Can we please start a meme to counter all the negative stuff about Biden? Like he’s actually one of the greatest presidents, meeting the dire challenges of this moment on climate, geopolitics, defense of democracy at home and abroad, defense of working class dignity, a smooth hand with economics, and Yoda-like restraint while running the gauntlet of spitting haters?
He’s kind of awesome, really.
Old like history, and better for it.
William weir wrote this on Quora. He consistently backs Biden' accomplishments. This answer was written to rank 5he presidents of the last 55 years.
In only 2–1/2 years, Biden has already set a record for the most jobs ever created in a single presidential term. We have the lowest peacetime unemployment since before the Great Depression, and workforce participation is rising for the first time since Clinton was President. His Rescue Plan launched the fastest economic recovery in history, and the…

And Biden continues to spur on the global trend of de-dollarization of international trade, with his reckless and wasteful support of Ukraine's oppressive, undemocratic far-right thug regime.
Unlike Russia's democratic invasion of Ukaine, I suppose.
John Sméagol is a pro-Putin trollski posting the same stuff over and over again. We’d best ignore him.
I don’t think he’s particularly bright. He goes to a topic most people don’t know much about and spouts nonsense like credit card debt is a sure sign of…whatever. Kind of a clever idiot. But not smart.
I agree with you Jen, but the Troll has "successfully" disrupted the thread today. Now he has a Co-Troll.
Bryan Sean McKown seems to be acting like a McCarthyist social monitor.
