Gotta get it off my chest!!! Please read the description xo
I have to confess, when I was really young, going back over 40 years, I used to tell racist jokes. I thought as long as I treated other people with respect, I didn’t equate that with “It’s just a joke” I have learned, however, when you know better, you do better. And I thought I was hilarious and everyone laughed. I was the life of the party 🥳 I learned to do better. It’s not hard to do, it’s all about empathy. Walk a mile in their shoes. My grandmother used to say you have 2 ears and one mouth, use your ears twice as much as your mouth.
Monday Moonbats, Monkeys ‘n Moles …
Again Ten Bears has done it. He posts a longish list of links many of which interest me, and I wander down them. All are interesting to different people, to me only some. But sadly today before I realized I also wanted to share some of them, I closed the tabs. But I did mange to reopen a few. I really recommend everyone check out his blog, you might not like everything he posts but so many have so much information that you can get lost in them. For me who always feel rushed for time … Bad Ten Bears, but thank you. You do give me a lot of information to consider. Below I will put the few links I read / clicked on a felt were really worth reading but remember they were not the only ones I read, they were only the ones I could quickly recall. Hugs. Scottie

Thom Hartmann: Republicans Plan to Suppress the Vote in 2024
Seriously important news on republicans past efforts that swung elections to them by cheating and the ones they plan for this 2024 election. Read, get angry, prepare to do what it takes to vote. This is simply batshit minority rule over the majoity so they can ignore the will / wishes of the people. They want to rule, not serve the public. Hugs. Scottie
Oklahoma: EPIC Theft of Public Dollars by For-Profit Online Charter School
Thank you to politicians are poody heads at https://poodyheads.wordpress.com/2024/03/29/oklahoma-epic-theft-of-public-dollars-by-for-profit-online-charter-school/ for the link.
Charter schools have long been a scam, a way to get either Christian theocracy into the classroom or for right wing profiteers to get tax dollars. Remember these schools take dollars from public schools while being exempt from all the same rules. Including test score rules. Like church schools, they get to pick and choice which students they take, leaving the most difficult and disadvantaged to the public schools that lost money to the choosy charter schools. Now it is coming out that most charter schools have horrible results. In fact, one I read about was a tennis charter school that just had the students play tennis and never did school work. Yup, those students will get into advanced education easily. Hugs. Scottie
No Sunshine in the Sunshine State
Thank you Tengrain for another wonderful post that puts the cards on the table and shows who holds the chips. But this one paragraph is to me everything the republican maga fundamentalist Christian right wants to do. Hugs. Scottie
If you happen to be a kid in Floriduh, there’s so many ways this jamoke is taking away your ability to learn about the world around you, from banning books, to expressly banning LGBTQ information, to now banning social media. It’s almost like Bootsie is afraid of what you might learn on your own.
ALT RIGHT A.I.?
I am so tired right now having not slept last night, but I wanted to post this as I felt it was important. This is a direct diversion of every search to the Republican agenda presenting in the best most convincing light. Pushing project 2025. So much for a neutral only the facts’ news AI media. Seriously a bot designed to push pro-fundamentalist republican anti-choice regressive view points? Is it deliberate? We people that love our democracy and progressive country better get engaged and vote, or we lose it all. The wealthy owner class wants us to return to the guided age, when only businesses had a say, government had no power, and workers were slaves to be worked to death for profit. Hugs. Scottie
