I use Apple News but there are plenty of other ways to just stream current events without comment sections to suck you in. As mentioned, RSS readers. You can borrow magazines and news papers on Libby as well.

Clean Fakes 🤦🏻

This is part one of the religious rights plan to go after porn sites and their patrons. Don’t give them your ID. If they get power, it will come back on you.

The straight whole coffee beans. 🤣

Good to see. Working people can’t count on governments alone to make our lives better against the aggressive greed of these corporations. We aren’t numbers on a balance sheet, we are people. The only way we can fight conscienceless capitalism is together.

It’s how affective a century plus of paranoia propaganda by the NRA has been.

With climate change, the whole of the mid-East is going to be uninhabitable. All these countries are fighting over land that no one will be able to live on in the next 50 years or so. Humans are way too short sighted.

And I say all these countries because Iran and Russia supports Hamas and America supports Israel.

I always wonder why people shoot up schools and parks when their problems are caused by people in board rooms. Never see a mass shooting in a board room for some reason.

Retiring in a cheap country in South America seems like the best option. Makes the money stretch way farther.

So stupid. We have to change the voting system before a “third party” will make any difference. It will take years of lobbying, marching, fighting. Your lazy little protest vote will accomplish nothing. The two parties control the electoral college. No third party has a chance till the system changes. Plus, no current third party is REMOTELY close to being a contender. Last time it even had a chance was Bernie if he ran independent in 2016 after the DNC screwed him and he chose not to. Just voting third party when no third party is showing any sign of winning, in an election like this, is so irresponsible. It proves you have no understanding of government. It’s acting like a child taking their ball and going home.

There has to be an unending vigilance, not just a fight because fights end. Older generations fought for workers rights with unions and their kids lazily let it slide away. The rich never stop taking because all they have to do hire people to lobby, lawyer, and manipulate for their ends. Workers have to continually push to take and keep their piece of the pie. Governments can make laws and rules to protect workers but those can be changed or weakened without vigilance. A good government official can help and their successor strip it away. Workers only strength is together. Collective action is the way but it’s a perpetual action.

I would never kill anyone for a government, let alone one ran by Christian extremist.

I wish he had been president back in 2016. Things would have been so much better.

I use Apple sync on all my devices including my computer and it does delete from one device to another IF you have sync set up properly. And it’s not instantaneous, it happens when the cloud sync happens. When the computer is off or in sleep, it’s not syncing and once it’s woken up, sometimes it takes a minute to sync up. My guess, it was either not set up right or it hadn’t sync’d yet.

Other possibility, he didn’t know about the deleted folder where deleted messages sit for 30 days unless you clear it (like a computer trash can).

Yeah, that’s what I was asking more. Sorry I wasn’t clear. I have some family history of genetic issues and I was looking at a test to try to see if that was a problem in me. I just didn’t want it sold to every company under the sun.

Don’t think anyone is all that surprised by the depths of Trump’s corruption at this point.

There needs to be a regulatory body that is voted for that specifically investigates and prosecutes corruption in government. The check on it is the people who can do recalls when they feel they aren’t doing their job.

Disagree. I think it makes you say shit you don’t think out and doesn’t represent your real intentions or opinions necessarily. Everyone has wild thoughts pop in their heads sometimes and being drunk you spew out half baked muddled thoughts. Doesn’t mean it’s representative of who you are or what you truly believe.

I wasn’t saying they like gay people. It’s just like when racism became more taboo, they became less overt with their racist actions. Homosexuality is more mainstream with the population so attacking it like they attack trans people doesn’t go over as well as it did in the 80s and 90s. The right always finds an other to push their base to hate. Trans rights mainstreaming is much newer in popular culture than gay rights.
