There is literally no difference. We lie to ourselves when we pretend "it couldn't happen here."

ANY arms (aside from WMDs and things banned by international law) that we have sitting unused and unlikely to be used in the near future should go to Ukraine.
What are we saving it for? What possible better use could we have than stopping Russian expansion without even committing our own troops?

I'm not into tick tock stories of government behind the scenes – way too many of those in the TFG era. But this is a good read on how Biden's experience & negotiating style finally got Ukraine the aid they need. So glad he's our president. Gifted. https://wapo.st/44dlvDi

Thank you for the gifted read. This sentence from the article stands out to me:
“The president’s direction was to keep talking, keep trying to think of ways that can accommodate the diverse views but still get this done.”
This inclusiveness requires an open mind as he clearly demonstrates.

"Hey Mom, can we #chat ?"
Deep breath. You've done this before, and yes, every kid is different. But you've walked through coming out, depression, diagnosis, ethical dilemmas, bad friends, poor grades.
"Of course. What's on your mind?"
"Nothing, I just like talking with you."
Win.

The next President could appoint between two and four Supreme Court Justices.
We warned everyone about this in 2016, and not enough people listened, and so Trump was able to stack the court with extremist partisan hacks that destroyed Roe and so much more.
Listen now, show up, and VOTE BLUE.

Folks that know me well shouldn't be surprised by anything I'll share in this thread. Folks that don't know me that well may find some surprises here. I'm not really looking to debate any of this but wanted to put some perspective on why I may post some of the things I may post about.

Nothing matters more than stopping Trump this November. Every progressive cause, every progressive conviction, every progressive goal you have will fare many, many times worse under Trump. Our definitive purpose right now should be reelecting President Biden.

It's WIP Wednesday! So lets take this painting from start to finish. The person who commissioned the work wanted to restore the building, and requested a painting showing what it might have looked like new in 1880. #WIPWednesday #SpoutibleCreates #Painting #Art

I don't understand this irrational fear of drag. They think exposure to this is somehow "corrupting".? I've been watching the GOP in Congress for years- their shit show hasn't turned me into a facist.

Biden is the most competent President of my lifetime. Give him four more years with a majority in both houses of Congress, and he will be a transformational president for the world.

He had a kind and generous soul. I’m wondering if he was interested in hockey? If he wanted the Avalanche to win? I bet he did because he knew it would make the people around him happy. I imagine he loved the renewal of Spring. He should be here to tell us.

Homelessness in my city of Portland (just north of Grant’s Pass) has been at crisis levels for several years now. Until we build and subsidize affordable housing AND ensure there are more than enough shelter beds, nothing will change. Where is the leadership? They’d rather criminalize sleeping???

Just a reminder that President Biden is working for the American people today not on trial for banging a porn star and then breaking campaign finance laws to cover it up. Don't let that get lost in the endless directing of the reporting.

Welcome to Spoutible, new folks!
You'll see us use the term BBIMP here, rather than POC or BIPOC. It stands for Black, Brown, and/or Indigenous, Melaninated People, and was coined by Louiza Doran.
Enjoy the waters!
