I’m going to say something that shouldn’t be controversial but will be. If you are a Christian, you can support border control and immigration being legal vs illegal. You CANNOT celebrate deportations and get off on the cruelty, and be a real Christ follower. Period

People.
They’ll lose their minds over a delayed train, snap over a slow barista. Let a spilled coffee ruin their day.
But when it comes to the big stuff, staying in the wrong job, letting their dreams die quietly. Wasting years on auto pilot.
Nothing. No urgency. No reaction.
We treat small problems like emergencies and the real emergencies as background noise.
Why do we do that?

Sometimes, when he fails badly enough, Trump can be forced to do the thing he says he never does: back down.
Today is just one more turn on the roller coaster - but it is more evidence of why we can't give up or let up.

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.

I cannot express how much I admire and respect this man. I supported him for president back in 2019 and will support him for ANY elected office in the future. He’s the real deal 💙💙

We live in a time that people are more inclined to obey an unlawful executive order than they are to follow a court order 🤦🏾♀️.
Dictators are created due to cruelty, cowardice, & compliance! IF THEIR ASSES will ignore the Supreme Court, we can definitely IGNORE HIM!

I don’t know but it’s really hard to agree with tRumps previous sycophant...but I think he’s toast. What is upsetting are the deep pockets of Republican dark money that have taken over the Supreme Court with the goal of taking away our rights
ahhh Karen!
avatar identification time!!
that's me in a band rehearsal in the storied "Apartment X," a cavernous dwelling above an A&P in downtown Park Slope in which four guys lived very comfortably for next to nothing. at least one of them is definitely reading this (the bass player in the right foreground) and could, if he wished, supply the actual rent. if I look sort of distant, it's because I'm thinking stuff like "jeez, if you don't play or sing, band practice can sure be dull and lonely."

Love it David. I was trying to figure it out and figured it was a band you were in. Most likely late 60s. Of course that’s when everything seemed to happen. It’s a great photo.
it was taken by one of the occupants of Apartment X, Danny Baumbach. last I heard, Danny was making a living as a professional photographer.
my late brother-in-law was another one of the guys there, and his main goal in life seemed to be driving Danny Baumbach insane by repeatedly stealing his yogurt.
I wasn't actually in the band; I was a words guy.

Well I hope it was some really good Greek yogurt. Words are the fabric that connects

He stood there on Jan 20 and falsely mouthed the words to protect and defend our Constitution.
Asked today on “Meet the Press” if he thinks he needs to uphold the Constitution, he says, “I don’t know.”
Translation: No. No, he doesn’t.
Woe to America and the utter failure of putting this man back in our Oval Office.
