Uncle Bubba was a nickname given to rock concert promoter Bill Graham by the Grateful Dead on his birthday. I have a few old ticket stubs labeled "Bill Graham Presents... The Grateful Dead. I actually got to meet him at a Garcia Band concert around 1989 at Great Woods in Mansfield MA. That...

Taken together these two stories reek of corruption in the Trump Administration and the Trump Organization and how to even tell the two apart. Under Biden, Obama, Bush, Clinton... the commingling of private commercial interests and state policy would have instantly caused a congressional...

Ya. But the fascists don't see that or don't want others to notice.

I've told this story before but.... When I was in high school they made the Pledge mandatory every morning. This was around 1976-1978 probably. The teacher told me to stand. I refused. At the time I didn't care about the God part and I was unaware of the unequal justice part. I simply...

The US has an obscene fetish with the flag. I never understood it. And yes the pledge is a lie. There is no equal justice for all. Justice is very unequal. And if you accept the pledge as a wish rather than a statement of fact, then the Under God bullshit violates equal religious freedom...

Surrounded by the sea?

The US pledge as it is used today is a tool of Christian fascism When mt kids went into grade school I made sure that they knew that standing for the pledge was optional. But still the school tried to make them stand when they didn't want to. I called the Principal and chewed him out. We...

I am forced to listen to the US anthem and the Canadian anthem a lot. My family watches hockey - US and Canadian teams. The US anthem is about war. The Canadian anthem is about protecting liberty and freedom. US O say, can you see, by the dawn's early light, ⁠What so proudly we hailed at the...

The basic problem is that Trump and his butt lickers lie, do evil shit and say bullshit stuff all the time. Next to nothing said by this administration can be trusted. Poe is broken. I think that this forum should attempt to separate truth from fiction at least by saying that some X/etc post...
