Bluesky labeled me SPAM claiming excessively frequent & irrelevant things like posting & following. I follow users with compatible interests to share, learn & have civil, intelligent conversations on very relevant topics & 25,000 follow me. I don't understand. It seems like character assassination.

One of the most useful reviews I've read so far - and I've been reading them non-stop since seeing the film. Spoiler alert, however. You should see it before you read this... www.statnews.com/2026/10/19/e... via @statnews.com

Challenges to political beliefs might engage brain networks tied to self-reflection, new study suggests

psypost.orgChallenges to political beliefs might engage brain networks tied to self-reflection, new study suggestsIn a brain imaging study conducted in Poland, people with strong left-wing views barely changed their political beliefs after reading counterarguments, even as they lowered their confidence in factual claims. Their brains also responded differently to the two kinds of challenges.

How did they THINK their visit was going to be communicated by the Trump regime? And how did they THINK their visit was going to be viewed regardless of what the Trump regime did?

AND just because we all need to laugh at this absurdity every day alongside all of our anger & frustration, PLAY IT AGAIN, Sam! And again and again and again to show the absurdity of this deliberately disastrous buffoon and his over-inflated, over-entitled, narcissistic ego!

Reason number 999 we must flip the Senate: Pete Hegseth could end up there without ever facing the voters. The very definition of mediocrity failing upward — from the Pentagon straight into the United States Senate.

Man, Hegseth's Department of War is even more buffoonish than everything else. Kinda amazed how the US military didn't just have some basic war plans they could activate. Their lack of preparedness is astonishing. meidasnews.com/news/so-much...

Pete Hegseth believes he will be impeached if Democrats win the Senate. So he wants Blackburn to nominate him as her replacement if she becomes governor of Tennessee although he only lived there for 3 years. No one wants Hegseth. #ProudBlue#Voices4Victory #OneV1 www.mediaite.com/media/pete-h...

From Zelenskyy. Patriot interceptors that could save innocent lives are sitting in European countries for weeks, which they paid for, unable to be transferred to Ukraine because Hegseth refuses to sign off.
