Trump’s administration proposed stripping tax-exempt status from schools that consider race in admissions. Because apparently Washington solved groceries, healthcare, housing and war and finally reached Item 847 on America’s emergency to-do list. #Priorities

"The author of the Democratic National Committee's 2024 election #autopsy confirmed an Axios report that he concluded the war in #Gaza hurt Kamala Harris politically":
https://www.axios.com/2026/08/06/dnc-2024-autopsy-author-gaza
Many people who were opposed to genocide in #Gaza could not bring themselves to vote for #KamalaHarris whose position on genocide was and is terrible.

#Writing, #Knitting, #LearningJapanese, #Taekwondo... I have too many hobbies, yet I don't want to give up on any of them. This has prompted me to consider what I want from each of these activities and where my priorities actually lie.
I will share more in my #newsletter post for July.

Trump’s priorities: Pardoned 1,500+ Jan. 6 insurrectionists—including violent felons—on Day 1. Dozens have since been rearrested. Student loan relief for 43M Americans? Killed. This is MAGA’s America. 🤡 #J6Pardons #VoteBlue #Priorities

Movie star demands the gov launch state-owned OTT platform.
Because watching "cinema, docs at affordable, subsidised rates" is the people's most pressing need. 🙄
Not roads, bridges, water, toilets, food, personal safety,...🤦♂️

A quotation from Abraham Lincoln
The advice of a father to his son “Beware of entrance to a quarrel, but being in, bear it that the opposed may beware of thee,” is good, and yet not the best. Quarrel not at all. No man resolved to make the most of himself can spare time for personal contention. Still less can he afford to take all the consequences, including the vitiating of his temper and loss of self control. Yield larger things to which you can show no more than equal right; and yield lesser ones, though clearly your own. Better give your path to a dog than be bitten by him in contesting for the right. Even killing the dog would not cure the bite.
Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865) American lawyer, politician, US President (1861-65)

One of the symptoms of approaching nervous break-down is the belief that one’s work is terribly important, and that to take a holiday would bring all kinds of disaster.

Our capitalist plutocrats accord myopic attention to the current day's stock price and the coming quarterly bottom line. The long term doesn't interest them because companies owe their full and directed allegiance to shareholders, even though those shareholders might cash out at any moment. So the cost of bad decisions is, you might say, an internal externality, or perhaps a temporal externality, thrust upon tomorrow's stockholders by today's, who try to cash out before prices dive.
This article is an example of that, but hardly an isolated one.
Capitalists see robustness, safety, redundancy, stability, jobs, work/life balance, equitable pay, sustainability, public health, the environment, and even human rights as superfluous concerns, mere sources of economic inefficiency to be hammered out if they seem to impinge on profit, their sole concern. Much of the conservative agenda is about this kind of sociopathy.
Switching to stakeholder capitalism instead of shareholder capitalism would help. It would bring more voices into the discussion. Representation matters.
