Trump’s gross negligence during the #COVID19 pandemic amounts to genocide. Not only has he reduced the average life expectancy of the US by years, the effects on the life expectancy and health of the American people will be felt for years to come.

I don’t know about you, but my social media feed is full of disappointment over the DoJ, the DAs, and various and sundry investigations not yet resulting in any lock him up! The kind of distortion of our expectations that social media can create is detrimental to our democracy.

It was a busy week around Ye Olde Blogge: we had Father’s Day replete with dad jokes; Juneteenth with a confusing array of state responses; and a amygdala-ful Twitter thread by rhetoritician, Jennifer Mercieca.

You’da thunk that with everyone. — okay all the progressive liberal thinking types — at home most of last year, there’d’ve been no crime to speak of much less murder and mayhem, but no, violence, murder, and gun sales all increased last year. Why? You know why. Trump.

How can we make a difference with our democracy, economy, and climate? We can call our Members of Congress to support the For the People Act, the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act, the American Jobs Plan, and reforming the filibuster.

Now is the time to make your voice heard in the Senate! Call YOUR senators about ending the filibuster. Don’t call Joe Manchin, Kyrsten Sinema, or anyone but YOUR senators. Urge them to (a) support modifying the filibuster and (b) lobbying Manchin, Sinema, and other moderate Democrats about doing so too.

Why is truth, honesty, good-faith negotiations, and expert opinion necessary for us to survive as a people and as a democracy? Because our society is too complex for one person to understand it all completely. We must rely on others to make decisions in our best interest.

As awareness and acceptance of mental health issues increases in our thoroughly modern world, organizations and people should be more prepared to accommodate those whose needs are not being met. Naomi Osaka is a great example of how the arc of history needs to bend towards accommodation.

The lies the GQP tells just keep getting taller and taller. Soon they will tower above the clouds. Surely this amount of lying will have some detrimental effect. Surely shamelessness cannot be healthy.

How likely is it that the Dems are going to hold on to the majorities in Congress? There are lots of reasons to be optimistic that the 2022 election will defy history and leave the Democratic party in charge of Congress, the most prominent one being that Trump isn’t running but he’ll be trying to help the GQP campaigns.

Have the Republicans rigged the 2022 election? Has their structural advantages, gerrymandering, packed judiciary, and voter suppression completely eliminated the possibility of losing? This is the argument for pessimism regarding election 2022.

My PDA daughter did a thing. She made a podcast on being a PDA’er in school for a school assignment. As it turns out most of the accommodations that schools make are more for their sake than the PDA’er.

We’ve had so many police shootings of Black people since the Chauvin trial started it is almost like the police are acting out! Since Chauvin clearly was a psychopath, it got me wondering just how many of the police murders we witness are caused by psychopaths. We take a deep dive into psychopathy to find out.

Yao! TL;DR! But, it is so worth it. There are six categories of conservative and they are oh, so illuminating in explaining the dysfunction that they are forcing on us in order to wreck our democracy. Lots of food for thought in this one.

The George Floyd Justice in Policing Act is a comprehensive police reform measure that would help stop police from violating the Constitutional rights of Black Americans and improve policing for everyone. Call YOUR senator to help pass this bill.
