This weekend's music theme is a tribute to the best in people, demonstrated by the career state department diplomats and staff that work so hard and conscientiously on behalf of the U.S. and all of us. Songs about love, kindness, compassion, concern for others and helping people are in our musical portfolio this weekend.
Revolution isn't a war. It is an agreement. Revolution can never come from above, from "governments." War almost always does. Revolution is the only option when government fails to represent the basic morality of a majority, or consensus, of the people. When it fails to be accountable, and responsible.
"It's not like people think," the boxer knows, "it ain't about knocking guys through the ropes, or fighting dirty. It's about getting hit; taking a hard hit that jars your senses a little, and standing back up again. It's about throwing a punch he'd never expect when you don't have the strength to raise your arm. It's about you maybe getting hit three times for every one that you land, but making him pay."
No attempts by any of the other officers to have Chauvin remove his knee from the neck of Floyd,
Simple Don forgot that he is the most anti-environment person on earth. Especially since his pen makes him the world's biggest carbon contributor.
We have a real fight on our hands again to keep our independence, freedom and democracy alive in this country so this July 4th weekend's music thread is for songs about America, good and bad, freedom, and conscience.
We are now facing, for the first time in our history, three deadly and persistent enemies at once; with one being the implosion of the Economy. Combined with the pandemic, and the social crisis; we are dangerously close to collapse. And all because for thirty years we allowed extremist cultists to reduce government to factionalism. Government became so dysfunctional that it could not defend us.
The theme for this weekend's music thread is our senses, songs about seeing, hearing, feeling, smelling and tasting.
This weekend's theme is about health and the body. Songs about doctors, health, feelings, and parts of the body (except the naughty bits).
This weekend's thread is about home, family, friends and their goodness. While we're all in our own homes, we're also all in the same place together too.

A Ten-Year-Old is Doing What Grown-Ups Should Be Doing
Caitlyne Gonzales shouldn’t have to do what she is doing. That should be the job of her two senators, Ted Cancun Cruz, John Cornyn, and the governor of Texas, Greg Abbot, are the ones who should be advocating for the banning of the AR-15 instead of offering heartfelt prayers and gleefully stuffing their campaign coffers with thousands from the NRA.
Florida – Where Book Banning Flourishes
It’s obvious what rankles Ms. Salinis; she is an illiterate troglodyte who couldn’t handle seeing a young Black female reciting a poem of hope for this country. Nothing in Amanda’s poem remotely suggests what she claims justifies having this book banned. She is an opportunist taking advantage of the dumbass laws DeSantis pushed through his State Legislature to make Florida an autocratic state.
