Organize for Solidarity & Support

I believe in individuals standing up for their rights, but I also believe in the need for individuals to organize themselves as they as a collective always are stronger than any one individual ever can be and in a collective they can share support with each other.

Today is the International Worker's Day in most parts of the civilized world when we celebrate our right and ability to organize, unionize and show solidarity in expected and unexpected ways.

This is Billy Bragg singing his song "There is Power in a Union" to scenes from the movie "Pride" (2014) by director Matthew Warchus with screenplay by Stephen Beresford.

It's A Good News Day

Today a dear friend got the wonderful news that he is a survivor of the scary Big C. I'm sure it is been a terrible and awful time living with the sword of Damocles hanging threateningly over his life. But it's time to leave that behind and rejoice, rejoice and rejoice!

Oh what a glorious and joyous day! Happy, happy day!

You Got Me At "Extremist Propaganda"

As soon as I read that this - or some other similar picture (no one is certain because a picture wasn't added to the directive) - had been outlawed by the Russian Federation as "extremist propaganda", I k-n-e-w I just had to publish it.

The simple reason is because I consider Vladimir "Little Father" Putin, president of the Russian Federation, a.k.a "The Murderer in Moscow", on of the five most truly evil people alive.

According to the Chicago Tribune the directive reads as follows: "Item 4071: a picture of a Putin-like person "with eyes and lips made up," captioned with an implicit anti-gay slur, implying "the supposed nonstandard sexual orientation of the president of the Russian Federation."

May he rot while he still walks among us and then forever more in hell.
