  • GoDaddy Supports Women’s Rights

    Thanks Goodness for Progressive Companies Like GoDaddy

    “We’re deeply concerned by the recent changes that limit reproductive rights,” GoDaddy officials said in a statement. “Limiting these rights impacts the ability for people to pursue success on their own terms, which is core to our mission to empower entrepreneurs everywhere, making opportunity more inclusive. That is why a few weeks ago we announced internally that we would be extending our U.S. health benefits to cover travel and travel-related costs for abortion-related and other healthcare needs for employees and their covered spouses and dependents on our health plan.” 1

  • Happiness Causes Lots of Good Things to Happen in Your Life

    Happiness Causes Lots of Good Things to Happen in Your Life

    Smiling Fruit

    We’ve all heard the phrase: “Don’t worry, be happy.” While it may sound trite, numerous medical and psychological studies show that this is sound advice to live by. These studies found that that happiness causes good things to happen across a number of fronts. For example, happy people have higher incomes, more fulfilling marriages, healthier lifestyles, better relationships, superior work performance, are more involved with their communities, have better health and live longer lives. In addition, happy people are more optimistic, kind, have more energy and are less likely to have heart problems. As Dr. Karina Davidson, of the Columbia University Medical Center put it, “If you are not a naturally happy person, try acting like one.” Doing things like cooking a meal for someone who is sick or grieving, slowing down in traffic to allow someone can cut in front of you, running an errand for someone, or doing something to brighten another person’s day can cause these same good things to happen in your life.

  • A Camel Through the Eye of a Needle

    In Aramaic, the word for “camel” (גמלא) is spelled identically to the word for “rope” (גמלא).

    When Jesus spoke to the fishermen, they knew exactly what he meant.

    Then, of course, there are many other translations. Oh my, what to believe.

    Gun Violence

    Republicans are blocking almost every effort the Democrats are trying to pass into law. Why? Probably money. The NRA?

    “It’s been seven years since a white supremacist stepped into a sacred space of worship for the Black community of Charleston, SC and took 9 innocent young lives. We wish we could say that we’ve seen real change happen in the ensuing years, but that is sadly not the case. Buffalo, New York; Uvalde, Texas; Tulsa, Oklahoma – these are just three of the mass shootings we’ve witnessed in the last [few] months.” 2

    Solution: Elect more progressive Democrats. End the filibuster.
