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

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.

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!

Correction: A previous version of this article mistakenly referred to K.C. Saunders as the County Administrator. He is, in fact, the Budget Director for Lorain County. The correction applies to Part 3, paragraph 3; Part 4, paragraph 1 & 4; and Part 5, paragraph 4 of the published story.

healing isn’t cute. it’s not aesthetic. or curatable. its not quoting affirmations you don’t believe in yet.

it’s texting a friend “i know i said i was over it. i lied.” it’s crying in the bathroom, washing your face, and going anyway. it’s learning the same lesson five times before it sticks.

its boring. messy. inconvenient. repetitive. and most of the time, it doesn’t even feel like healing. until one day, it does.

No likes. No shares. Just silence.

But writing isn't about receiving praise.

It’s about leaving parts of yourself for others to discover.

John Cave--Doesn't hurt to just send a personal message to the CDC, demanding that she step down.

Yes, it doesn't hurt. In fact, it makes people feel better about themselves. Good luck with that because we all know this is all about our feelings now, and making sure that we're being heard.

No this is NOT about “feelings” or “being heard” at all. Do you think the founding fathers were sitting by their fires crying & whining to each other about their feelings? Absolutely not. They were rational men and pragmatic thinkers. They analyzed the situation and discerned that - regardless of the risks of being hung for treason by King George - they must revolt and, together with like-minded decent people, create something new. No. This is not about feelings or being heard. This is about tr…

I hear you, and your feelings. The founding fathers engaged in a propaganda campaign to eliminate competition from the British government. Taxes were low and going lower. The founders were engaged in an enterprise to make money shipping tea. They weren't making any money, so they staged the Boston Tea party.

I don't see you or anyone else engaging in ANY campaign to compete with Big Pharma, the government, the media, etc. etc. etc. What you and everyone else is doing is endeavoring to co-…

Shnarkle Von Barkle's avatar

Why don't you just ignore what I'm, posting here instead? Perhaps you didn't catch that I was being sarcastic. Again, what I like or dislike isn't the issue, and I'm not presenting my disfavor with Steve's perspective. I'm simply pointing out that the elite's narrative is moving along at THEIR pace. They're the ones who are moving their narrative along and it will be THEY who suggest we figure out who is to blame. Finding a scapegoat is THEIR way to appease the unwashed masses into believi…

Maybe, sarcasm is not impression you're giving. How about a deep breath or two, yourself?

Shnarkle Von Barkle's avatar

I've been taking deep breaths and know that I've undoubtedly been infected. Have you had a D dimer test yet? Regular blood thinning tests and blood thinners are useless. Better get one quick before they take that away like they did Ivermectin. Do you know how to chelate spike protein and get it out of your body?

Again, the gain of function is explicitly with regards to getting these particular spike proteins airborne(the same exact spike proteins in the VAXX). Once they get to the spleen, th…

Yep, your true colors are starting to show.

Re: "No, the majority of us do not share your defeatest, negative attitude."

Now you're projecting. I'm quite simply pointing out that shooting off one email after another to government stooges who drank the Kool Aid a long time ago isn't going to work anymore than taking the vax worked. The blue pilled always like to tell us how negative and defeatist we are for giving up on grandma by not taking the vax. smh.

This isn't just about feelings, dearie. Although, I really have to doubt the humanity of anyone that isn't very upset about HALF A MILLION MURDERS of innocent people. Yes, honey, I'm looking right at YOU. Right now, my brother-in-law is very sick from the jab and may well die. And you want to blame me for having feelings about that? Go right ahead and make fun of me for having feelings - but I don't think it will make you look very good. Go ahead and make fun of me - I DARE YOU.

Shnarkle Von Barkle's avatar

My family gave me an ultimatum. It was their way or the highway. Take the jab or see ya never. They don't even want me showing up at their funerals. Just FYI, talking about one's feelings doesn't stop the murders of innocent people. I'm not telling anyone to refrain from feeling anything. I'm just pointing out that it's an excellent way to distract the hypnotized masses from actually doing anything about it.

NO PROPERTY TAXES FOR 65 and OVER- this would give relief to strained social security and ensure the elderly can never have their homes taken away.
