There are so many stories coming down the pike about the fiction that is America right now that this one barely matters. It just caught my eye.
Jill Stein wanted to quickly get out from under being Cornel West’s interim campaign manager, and so she hired a douche who may well be an infiltrator for the DNC too.
The head of the UAW, who has a good reputation and is well-liked, suddenly announced that the strike against Big Auto would consist of only 8% of his membership to start with, and no one can figure out why in the hell that is supposed to help anyone but the worst fatcats in the country.
Is he a sellout? Is Cornel West even serious anymore?
If you still care about this crap in the least, DD covered those two stories and much more besides in their livestream this morning. Hit their YT homepage for more bite-sized versions; you can pick and choose instead of committing to listening for hours.
Slowly I begin to turn my heart away from that whole world. I am addicted to having it around like somber background music, but I can barely bring myself to umbrage lately, and maybe that’s a good thing.
It’s all broken beyond repair and putting my energy there is wasting it, unless something big should change.
My own life is broken too.
But I am repairing it, in my slow and stupid way, and by my own notions of Fix.
Carry on, beloved.
