Money is nice, but being able to speak my mind is better.
"Real talk: Daniel Rubin has a great little piece up wherein he chats with The Field Negro, the Philly-based blogger who sharply ponders all things black on a daily basis. (Seriously, if you’ve never checked in with TFN, you should: Its author, Wayne Bennett, is a fantastic read who can cut through bullshit like a hot knife through butter, which is a far grosser analogy than I wanted to make, but there you have it.)"

"To white people, Bennett's musings are like kitchen-table talk from a kitchen they may otherwise never set foot in. To African Americans, he is part of a growing army of black Internet amateurs who have taken up the work once reserved for ministers and professional activists: the work of setting a black agenda, shaping black opinion and calling attention to the state of the nation's racial affairs."

"That's why I love the blog "Field Negro" so much. Field, as he's known to his fans, has the sense of reality that it takes to call out the (CowPuckey) of blame beating by those who are in positions of power and their lackeys. Because of his handle and his unabashed way of writing about racial issues, Field is often cited as a "Black blogger." What he is, however, is a first-class detector of blame deflection and an excellent student of history. If you want to write about the past and future of repression there's really no other perspective to take - which is why everyone should read Field."

"I had no idea, for example, of the extent of the African-American blogging world out there and its collective powers of dissemination.But now, after reading thousands of anguished, thoughtful comments posted on these blogs reflecting on issues of persistent racial discrimination in the nation's schools and courtrooms, what's clear to me is that there's a new, "virtual" civil rights movement out there on the Internet that can reach more people in a few hours than all the protest marches, sit-ins and boycotts of the 1950s and 60s put together."

That makes good sense. A funeral or memorial service is a solemn observance. No place for fake Christian Trump.
I did a Google image search on that pic and the result was physical therapy, which I felt was kind of insulting to the physical therapists who taught me how to walk again after my stroke.

"That makes good sense. A funeral or memorial service is a solemn observance. No place for fake Christian Trump."
Also not a place for someone who said of the (future) deceased -- who was captured and held as a POW for 5 1/2 years after his plane was shot down during the Vietnam War -- "I like people who weren't captured."
The list of people on Earth whom Trump hasn't pissed off is getting ever shorter.

Stoopid fucking wingnut job plan.
“Holy Kompromat!! The Gig’s up!!“
"Stoopid fucking wingnut job plan."
3.6 million new jobs since election day.
3.9% unemployment.
Real stoopid.

That is correct. Go look at the reason for such low unemployment. It is not because we are getting more workers and jobs, shithead. It also has virtually nothi9ng to do with Drumpfuck.
Where are those $4000 salary increases wingnuts claimed would happen if the koch bros got more taxcuts.
Apple's stocks just shot up because Buffett used part of his 29 billion gift from Drumpf to buy 75 million shares of Apple stock.
In the meantime, those of us on SS got nothing in the way of huge gifts of money from stoopid fucking wingnuts.

Cop drew gun on a guy who legally bought Mentos at a convenience store. That must be one of them places where Blacks are conveniently killed for being Black.

The Police were an OK band in the eighties. They had an under rated guitar player and a drummer who was good at leaving spaces.

Had Obama done this, stoopid fucking wingnuts would have launched a nukular strike already.

So the uninsured rate is inching back upward again... among Republicans:
(from Vox)
-
“I can’t explain the increase among people who identify as Republicans,” Collins says. “I can speculate that it might have to do with the repeal and replace efforts, or a general sense of confusion. But right now it’s confusing and perplexing, and I don’t really know the cause.”
I’m also speculating here, too, but my hunch is that this could have to do with how different states responded to the Trump administration’s work to dismantle the Affordable Care Act. Liberal states kept investing in outreach work, while Republican-led states did not. That might be one other reason you see this political divergence in uninsured rates, too.

https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2018/5/2/17311788/voxcare-uninsured-americans-obamacare-republicans
I can tell you why: there are a lot of Republicans who are too stupid to live and will literally let themselves die before they admit that health insurance could save them if Fox News told them it wouldn't.

Doc, I am digging that new Childish Gambino video and song as well.
