Edit: thank you sooo much to everyone for all the support! I REALLY appreciate your kind words and encouragement. I was originally determined to respond to every comment but I don’t think I’m going to be able to. Please know I appreciate you though!
I haven’t had a drink in 474 days. I stopped using cannabis 27 days ago. This is the longest time I’ve spent utterly sober since I was 16 (back in the 1980s!).
Today I went to my first AA meeting. As a neurodivergent woman with rampant social anxiet…
Every noncitizen in this country now knows that if they merely voice strong opposition to Israel, they risk deportation. They need commit no crime. They need only hold a view disliked by Marco Rubio and government men in masks will find you, imprison you and deport you.
This is a very dark day for the First Amendment - gutted for noncitizens to protect a foreign country from criticism.

With Holy Week approaching, I was thinking of sharing a short daily meditation from St. Thomas Aquinas. Nothing from me—just his wisdom—but I’d do my best to walk you through it and help you understand it. Would that interest you?
One can hypothesize about whether the current rash of disasters and disastrous responses thereto are intentional. One can also wonder at the absurd profligacy of the waning days of the Biden administration, with money, regulations and preemptive pardons.
All these may likely be calculated to damage or at least hamstring the second Trump administration. But what will the actual effect be? Remember, they tried to kill the man and he immediately turned it into an iconic image.
American resilience will be further tested when Hezbollah cells move to attack. They have been in the US since at least the 80"s. Building networks, training, enriching themselves with not only cash via small business profits, but gaining US citizenship through marriages to vulnerable US Citizens. 4 years later they can bring Islamic women to the US. Marry them and continue the out-breeding the native population. The Hezbollah cell structure is very complex. Right here in our towns and cities. …
They have and play the long view just as the Chinese do. Their allegiance isn't to themselves but to their particular gene pool or race if you prefer. They view times in centuries and millennia. This reminds me of those cranks who believe in things such as the Pleiadian Starseed lunacy. Only they see time not at all.
Yes Islam operates on the long range view. They’re driven by ideology and tribal loyalties above all. They are the seed of Abraham by Ishmael. And Ishmael is a “wild ass of a man. His hand is against every man and every man’s hand is against his”. He does not inherit because his mother was an Egyptian slave woman. Issac does, as the son of the free woman, inherit the rights of primogeniture. Which ultimately leads to ruling over the entire world. Israel despite all we see in the news cycle remains God’s Chosen. None of that is within man’s control.
Israelis despite all we see in the news cycle are a bunch of ethnosupremacists who wrote their old book declaring that they are God’s Chosen ones. Self appointed. LOL
Failing to ever prove that "God" exists, let alone wrote their old book, means that their claim is not worth toilet paper.
