My evening thought is that I suspect a great many Americans, in the period after 1989, grew very used to a world in which it didn't matter *that* much who they elected (to them).
They had the rule of law, the most prosperous economy in human history, the long peace.
But it always mattered.
The administration is removing phone support for Soc Security recipients. Making it more difficult for seniors to get their checks. Itโs a back door way to cut SS benefits. Horrific.
If you know anyone who is impacted, please help them get online to get their benefits approved

A screenshot of a twitter thread. The first post by Loky (@lokymann_1d ) from March 9, 2025, includes an image of three men from the TV show Modern FamilyโPhil Dunphy (played by Ty Burrell) in a plaid shirt, Mitch Pritchett (played by Jesse Tyler Ferguson) in a dark sweater, and Cam Tucker (played by Eric Stonestreet) in a striped shirtโstanding in a kitchen, with the caption "them." The second post by g (@illygrene ) poses a hypothetical scenario: "You're stuck in an elevator with three adult men but you feel completely safe. name the three adult men," referencing the image.
Bring men like this back into our living rooms!

Plan ahead and don't purchase if you don't have to. If you do, find someone local who can take care of what you need!
It might not seem like much, but when you know how strapped these megacorps are, a day can make a big statement.

Folks: I am NOT affiliated with the group that is using my name to support an economic boycott. Please spread this post, if you would.
It's weirdly difficult to remember that Trump's popular vote margin was /less/ than Hillary's in 2016. Biden got more votes in 2020 than Trump got in 2024 and Trump surrogates all under-performed in congressional races.
This is not a mandate, I don't get why it is being portrayed that way.
Thank you @marcelias.bsky.social Tireless and fierce
