Socialism is what they called public power.

Socialism is what they called social security.

Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.

Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

This is truly heartbreaking. Dolly Parton was an extraordinary person and an irreplaceable champion of the working class. We are a better country because of her.

Life is too short.
It just is.
No matter the years you have.
So take care of your body.
Take the road less traveled.
Look to the night sky.
Find laughter in every day.
Sit with your sorrow.
Smile at a stranger.
Respect your own boundaries.
Dream. Hope. Rage. Leap.
Be a fool.
Collect wisdom.

They told to beware of quicksand growing up, no one told us it wasn't literal.
It was an emotional quagmire in our own depths

It's ok to look after yourself.
It's ok to get some rest.
It's ok to buy another book.
It's ok to fill your rooms with books.
It's ok to be surrounded by creaking towers & tunnels of books.
There's always room for one more.

There are days when the burden is heavy.
The ground beneath is sinking.
The will to keep going all but gone.
Each breath almost rips from my lips.
Still I lift, I step forward, I inhale, exhale.
I move.

I was brought here to dance, sing, laugh.
Not just to struggle, try to survive.
I will thrive

Yes... more well rounded, mind expansive experience than just studying to pass rote math and reading tests. It is simply incalculable how detrimental No Child Left Behind has been, but we are starting to see some of that math as the kids who grew up on it become adults.

I walked into the water
To cool my skin
The heat of your touch still within
I fell back into the ripples
To cool the fire
To wash away any perceived sin
I sank into liquid depths
To cool my pulse
The taste etched in memory

Plant bleeding hearts at my grave
For all the love I ever gave.

I poured it out into the world
And withered where I rooted
Waiting for it to return

But for a chance to do it all again...
Plant daffodils and serum.

Let nature bloom
Where I did not
Let that be my requiem

This is crazy to be happening in 2026. The US has now recorded more measles cases this year than in any year since 1991, marking the highest total in 35 years. As of today, the country had reported 2,295 confirmed measles cases, according to the Johns Hopkins University U.S. Measles Tracker.

Sometimes it is easy to fall in love with a drowning man,
To want to save what you can.
But never reach out your hand,
To one who is willingly drowning as best he can.

And then we collided.
Was it destined? No.
Yet there was no denying the silent pull.

A thunderstorm.
Building in the distance,
With the changing of the winds,
Brought to my front door.

I'm not posting Odyssey memes because one must be wary of GIFs bearing Greeks.

I lived my life waiting for
Romantic love
Destined love
Conquering love
True, pure, indestructible.

I've lived my life knowing
Unrequited love
Fickle love
Crumpled love
Fake, tarnished, brittle.

Now,

I want no love without.

I only need love within,

True but tarnished
and
Beautiful

Amidst the wreakage
of a dying chapter,
The beginning
of a new journey,
With a stumbled step
and a shakey breath,
Never let them who watched say,
That I did not step forward,
that I did not rise,

That I did not sing.
