Random Love (anti-rants)
-
Not sure what you’re feeling good about
Yeah after a good week (politically) with wins for leftist Petro in Columbia and a loss for Macron (despite me having a crush on him kinda), the news of basically reducing women to 2nd class citizens was hard to deal with… Despite knowing it was a-coming and inevitable...
I was discussing this with my student yesterday... She's rightwing but pro-choice... I told her no, not one fucking law, no restriction, NOTHING should come between a woman's life and her decision... Between a woman and her choice...
Random Love? A little lost on me right now, but I will not, I will never lose faith in women... I hope they can grab the Biggest Pussy in the US' history and make him eat their placenta.

This may start a little dark but it ends full of love.
Oslo’s Pride parade should happened yesterday. But during the Pride Eve party some assclown killed two and wounded 22 in an anti lgbtq+ hate crime. The parade was cancelled due to security concerns.
Despite this, thousands took to the streets yesterday and today in an unsanctioned parade/demonstration. The Oslo 5-0 let them get on with it.

Haven’t we seen enough hate and darkness over the last thousands of years. The self claimed superior and most intelligent species in earth; the human being. It makes me sad but I will never loose faith in humanity.
Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can.

Exchanges like these are a big part of what keeps me coming back to this forum. Y'all are good people. It gives me hope when I see the love being shared here. I teach high school History here in the US, and I use my platform as much as possible to share and spread messages of love, respect, and kindness rather than fear, intolerance, and bigotry. Tough times these days as we see the often violent reaction against progress that has been fought for in decades past. As a dad with young children, I can't help but hope that the voices of reason (like many of the ones here on this forum) will win out in the long run.

Not sure what you’re feeling good about, Dennis—I’m glad you’re happy. I can’t say I find much bright and shiny stateside at the moment. More dark days ahead for the US of A.

I hear you, @sabergirl — I feel the same way at the moment. Bleak times. Sending a hug across the webbernet

You've got my love brother, from the bottom of my heart.
Shoutout to @sabergirl and all women here… Y'all safe here but unfortunately it's the only god-dang place y'all are safe at...

I’m going to share something here that I shared with @goosehd in pm yesterday. Many of you may be familiar with The Hold Steady and their singer/lyricist Craig Finn. He has a few maxims I’ve always liked but I’ve increasingly come to believe are rules for life.
Hold steady, stay positive, be honest. We all want the same things.
