I stopped eating sugar three years ago last October. It wasn't easy because most processed foods have sugar as a major ingredient. I quit because an annual VA checkup said I was borderline diabetic- it turned out that the A1C numbers for that had been adjusted since my previous checkup.
It still motivated me to drop sugar/honey/maple syrup/allofit. My weight dropped from 160-165 to 148-150 in about 3 months. Rock steady since.

Celebration by some in Iran. Keep in mind that, during his term as president, Trump wanted peaceful protestors shot and said he thanks shoplifters should be executed.

This is the same Bible that condones slavery.
"Religious traditionalists, particularly those among the Southern Baptist Convention, also opposed the federal government’s support for equality, although they got less press in the early years of that expansion. In their view, the Bible laid out hierarchical social arrangements, especially patriarchy. Government defense of women’s equality was a direct assault on their worldview."

Oil corporations making record profits ready to end democracy for more money.
"Biden wants to eliminate the tax breaks, which include long-standing incentives to help drill for oil and gas, with a recent White House budget proposal targeting $35bn in domestic subsidies and $75bn in overseas fossil fuel income."

"...with the exception of MSNBC, national television news failed to cover the extraordinary story reported by Josh Dawsey and Maxine Joselow on May 9 in the Washington Post that Trump had told oil executives that if they gave $1 billion to his campaign, he would get rid of all the regulations the Biden administration has enacted to combat climate change.

"Elfreth raised roughly a third as much money as Dunn, bringing in $1.5m, but her candidacy received substantial outside financial help from the group United Democracy Project (UDP), a Super Pac affiliated with the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (Aipac). UDP spent at least $4.2m supporting Elfreth’s campaign, according to documents filed with the Federal Election Commission."

“I'm thrilled to be working in New Mexico again,
Story-wise, this new show could have been set anywhere in the United States. However, I keep returning to the Land of Enchantment for the beautifully cinematic landscape and to continue working with the best crew ever. They've been making me look good for seventeen years now, and I figure, ‘why fix it if it ain't broke?’”

My beer of choice since last Thanksgiving is non alcohol beer. I've been trying various, including Samuel Adams brews, but I've been spoiled by my first, Athletic Brewing. The web site boasts an assortment of NA brews, most of which have not shown up here, or, like the dark, are hard to find where it's sold. We just discovered the Ripe Pursuit Lemon Radler and at first I was disappointed that an ingredient was cane sugar, but I think it's going to be an occasional treat.

Having it both ways (He is a privileged, elected member of Congress.) congressman Mike Collins (R-GA), applauds racist attacks "mocking the Hamas loving fat girl." after expressing how he feels about Jews-
"In March, Collins participated in a vehemently anti-Semitic attack against a Washington Post journalist on X. Collins endorsed a post by a racist meme account, @GarbageHuman23, who attacked journalist Maura Judkis for being Jewish."
