"does the government allow you to joke about it?" remains a key indicator of whether or not your system of government / social organizing is something worth emulating or learning from

Happy National Black Cat Day! 🐈‍⬛🩷 Today, let's continue to spread the word: the only bad luck following black cats, or any cat, is harmful superstition. All of us who are lucky enough to know and love a black cat have so many reasons to celebrate today!

🐾 October 27 is Día de los Muertos for Pets, a day to remember and honor the animals who filled our lives with love, loyalty, and companionship. Celebrate by displaying photos, lighting a candle, sharing favorite memories, or creating a small ofrenda (altar) with your pet's favorite toy or treat ❤️🌼

On October 27, Dia Des Los Muertos, is a beautiful reminder, that our beloved pets are never truly gone. They wait for us on the other side of the bridge. They say our beloved pets come to visit us on this day. I hope this is true. No matter how much time passes, we never stop missing them. 🕯️

What must it be like to be a dark skinned mixed race kid named Vivek watching your dad say this s**t on national TV?

What the media does and doesn't report is a choice, as is how they frame it, and they seem to have chosen a side. But they act highly offended when we point that out.

How is it that another credible rape allegation and multiple assertions of further wrongdoing emerge about the president the week before an election and no one were to care? New concessions to the Russians? More revelations about his family Russia ties? About Kushner Trump corruption? How? How? How?

WANNA PUT A CHECK ON TRUMP'S ABUSE OF PRESIDENTIAL POWER? This election isn't just about who sits in Congress. It's about whether ANYONE can tell the president NO. Congress controls spending. Congress conducts oversight. Congress has war powers. Congress can subpoena. Congress can investigate.

Every week or two news anchors in Minnesota should run photos of the masked ICE thugs, captioned “Pretti and Good killers still at large.”
