Oh Marco, you spineless worm.

CALL TO ACTIVISM@calltoactivism.bsky.social

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

Music and art and friendship and love will continue through these days. We cannot let that be taken from us. Next at La Maison de la Paix (a house in Detroit where Dr. Martin Luther King visited regularly) guitarist Rollie Tussing, with Serve van der Voo and Ross Huff. Please RSVP info on flyer.

Shirley Chisholm was right then and right now.

Celebrating Black History Month a day early. The indomitable Shirley Chisholm speaking truths to all women across America. Listen up ladies as many still need to heed her wise words from so long ago.

I will post my house concert flyers here. I'm trying to figure out how to do a dedicated music page. Till then here we are! If you live in SE Michigan, please consider joining us. Music will get us through the toughest times.

I help promote and produce house concert in the metro Detroit area. Next Saturday there will be a great one! Located in historic Boston Edison, we present Julie Beutel, Bob O'Brien and Charles Green. Read the flyer, RSVP and come out. Beautiful music in a beautiful setting.

I haven't been using BSky properly but after the holidays I will make a starter pack and get cracking. The revolution won't wait for me. Happy holidays - all of the holidays - to you beautiful people.

12 years since Sandy Hook and still, we're mourning lives lost to mass shootings. ➡️Over 1.2 million Americans shot ➡️480,000 killed by guns ➡️5,400+ mass shooting incidents. NO MORE "thoughts and prayers". We want action. Repeat after me: #EndGunViolenceNow

I keep trying to write a sentence that expresses how I feel about the latest children's school murder. Have you ever looked in the eyes of a parent of a dead child? And to know that it was entirely preventable? It's the fucking guns, and we will never do anything to stop the slaughter.

They guard against unnecessary care. These fuckers.

United CEO Andrew Witty gave an address to the company today (leaked to me), telling employees "we guard against...unnecessary care" and that "There are very few people in the history of the U. S. healthcare industry who had a bigger positive effect on American healthcare than Brian [Thompson]."

They will change nothing. Once the story subsides, Anthem BCBS will quietly go ahead and charge for extra anesthesia. These scum do not care about anything but profit.

I'm glad to see Auschwitz Memorial has migrated from that other site. It's important to remember the unthinkable did happen and there is proof. Please follow them, even if it's heartbreaking.

Satirical news publication The Onion has bought Alex Jones’ InfoWars site at his bankruptcy auction. A bright spot of hilarity and justice in a bleak week. Suck on it, Alex Jones you toxic lying bag of shit.
