An excellent analysis of where the US went really wrong. The only disagreement we have is: the democracy which Thom and the research and I support has never existed in the US. A republic is not a democracy. It is not democratic when you only get to vote for the minions of the rich not issues.
Sonia C @sunny1This is a powerful read. Thom Hartmann does an excellent job of explaining the importance and nature of democracy. An insightful and important read. His words confirm the import of Biden’s work.

There's a new Twitter-alternative in the Apple app store. It's called Spill. It's in invite-only soft launch before opening up to everyone.
Spill is another attempt to provide a safe place for Twitter refugees. Spill was created by 2 Black programmers who were released in Musk's takeover.

Not that I need to look for a job or want to, but I am not working in an office every day again, period, and have the skills and experience to be picky
AuDHDeepDive @YusufYearwoodCompanies knew the mandated return to the office would cause some attrition...however, they were not prepared..."

My Hot Take: Megan highlights the argument that increasing grant funding increases the cost of college. It's called supply and demand. Education isn't immune to it.

Acey Deecey 🚀🚀 @mcgarrygirl78Oh you damn skippy. They're terrified because in the end their hatred of Black people and women overwhelms any of their desires to see American do well. This is liberals as well as conservatives. Don't sleep on that. If TFG were smart, he isn't, a woman would be his running mate. Period.02:17 PM - May 01, 2023

Full disclosure: I grew up AME and was an altar boy in my uncle's church in Denver for a time. But he hated that I used to fall asleep each week during his sermons in front of the congregation. (I was really only there for the music).
Black Music Project @blackmusicprojectThe first Black denomination was the AME (African Methodist Episcopalian), created by Richard Allen. Richard led a walkout of Black parishioners in Philadelphia ("City of Brotherly Love") in 1787 when they left their church due to frustration over forced segregation.07:23 PM - Apr 05, 2023Richard Allen and the Origins of the AME Church – Rediscovering Black History
Today's post was written by Holly Rivet, archival technician at the National Archives in St. Louis. Richard Allen was born February 14, 1760, enslaved to Benjamin Chew, a Quaker lawyer in Philadelphia. As a child, he was sold to Stokley Sturgis, a plantation owner in Dover, DE where Allen..

Sylvia Robinson of Sugar Hill Records belongs on the Mt Rushmore of female record execs because of her irreplaceable contributions to building #hiphop to make it a legit recording medium. Without her, there'd be no "The Message" (and #rap may have flamed out as just a fad). #WomensHistoryMonth

Sylvia Robinson, Godmother Of Rap Records, To Be Inducted Into The Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame
Sylvia Robinson is rightfully regarded as the the Godmother of the rap recording industry. She founded Sugar Hill Records in 1979 with her husband, the late Joe Robinson; but she was an iconic figure in R&B music long before many of the pioneers of rap music were even born.
Black Music Project @blackmusicprojectGrandmaster Flash & the Furious Five, The Message (1982). If you're creating a Mount Rushmore of #wokesongs this #rap record may be no.1. With killer lyrics by the legendary Duke Bootee & Melle Mel, The Message singlehandedly gave mainstream #hiphop a social and political consciousness. #Woke10:30 AM - Mar 31, 2023

Look at their credentials.
Ask questions,
Take notes.
If this is a test or procedure, ask how many times the physician has performed them.
Take someone with you to be another set of eyes and ears.
Don’t allow anyone to ignore your concerns.
Listen to your instincts.
Look up any meds prescribe
