I’ve noticed my apartment building’s Amazon orders have decreased by like 90% lately. From piles and piles of boxes in the delivery area to like a few here and there on top of mailboxes. Wow, you can do it when you put your mind into it. I’ve been boycotting Amazon orders for like 15 years btw. ✊

"Dirty Money" The Confidence Man (TV Episode 2018) ⭐ 8.1 | Documentary, Crime 1h 17m

Tons of folks don't follow news & may think of Trump as a successful business man due to the Apprentice.

Know anyone like that? In case they missed it, recommend the 2018 documentary "The Confidence Man," S1.E6 of Netflix's DIRTY MONEY.

Ties to Russian oligarchs noted.

A picture inside the Omaha venue in which hundreds are seen standing and listening to Bernie Sanders. Many have their phones in the air recording it and it is a generally young crowd.

A picture inside the Omaha venue in which hundreds are seen standing and listening to Bernie Sanders. Many have their phones in the air recording it and it is a generally young crowd.

In the depths of the Nebraskan winter, 2400 people came out to listen to Bernie Sanders in Omaha last night.

800 had to be turned away at the door. Over 190,000 tuned into the livestream.

There is a movement to be harnessed here.

Labor hasn’t delivered on more effective nature laws. It’s not just embarrassing, it’s calamitous | Tim Winton As Ningaloo reef bleaches and an election looms, we must look to those who stand in the way of our safety – the small cohort of people profiting from fossil fuels, and the politicians who protect them

"Despite the science, they want to back the likes of Woodside to drill and pollute for another 50 years. That’s a death warrant for Australia’s corals."

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office.

Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc.

Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

From EARTHSEED: THE BOOKS OF THE LIVING
Choose your leaders with wisdom and forethought.
To be led by a coward is to be controlled
by all that the coward fears.
To be led by a fool is to be led
by the opportunists who control the fool.
To be led by a thief is to offer up your most precious treasures to be stolen.
To be led by a liar is to ask to be told lies.
To be led by a tyrant is to sell yourself and those you love into slavery.

DEI Isn’t Dying: These Companies Are Standing Strong Against 'Anti-Woke' Backlash in 2025 Despite pressure, many companies remain steadfast in their commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion.

βœ… NEW by me:

Apple and Costco are not alone in taking a strong stand on diversity, equity & inclusion (DEI). The list of corporate giants pushing back on the 'anti-woke' #DEI backlash is growing in 2025.
