Ready solutions to the COVID and climate crises are hamstrung by the owner class. And the story of “River Dave” fighting for the right to live his remaining years off the grid. www.charlesbursell.com

Aug 4, 2021

Progressive activism extends the eviction ban and the infrastructure bill upholds the fossil fuel economy. It all feels like one step forward two steps back. www.charlesbursell.com

Aug 3, 2021

Huge gratitude to Simone Biles for lessons learned. And it’s time to shun both the unvaxxed and The Repugs from civil society. www.charlesbursell.com

Aug 2, 2021

Adam Carolla hilariously blames cancel culture for his lack of Hollywood offers. Sedition in DC? Of course! But prosecutors need more than “no duh” as evidence. Also: owning a home makes you an a-hole. www.charlesbursell.com

Jul 29, 2021

It’s not hype or fear mongering. At every level of government, media and culture American Fascism is very real. Ignore it at your own peril. www.charlesbursell.com

Jul 28, 2021

The FOX Weather Channel (yes, it’s real), climate crisis class disparities, and voter suppression funded by dark money. Anarchy to the rescue!  www.charlesbursell.com

Jul 26, 2021

The dangers of wealth disparity will grow as social media technology expands under capitalism. www.charlesbursell.com

Jul 22, 2021

Time for Washington Dems to go solo! Also, the NBA Champion Bucks’ story is way cooler than most people know. www.charlesbursell.com

Jul 21, 2021

Are we laughing enough? Too much? And what happened to the everyday art of joke telling in social situations?  www.charlesbursell.com

Jul 20, 2021

Do you trust professional scientists over amateur spiritualists? Here’s why you should. www.charlesbursell.com

The Fascists are flexing, democracy is dying, Covid is surging, and the planet is burning, but by golly, sports is a damn good time!  www.charlesbursell.com

Jul 15, 2021

The Right is now lying about Cuba and “record” inflation. Also: The child tax credit rolls out (for some) and defenders of Capitalism just don’t get it. www.charlesbursell.com

 

 

Jul 14, 2021

As automation, AI and robotics handle more of our work, we must turn our attention to saving ourselves and the planet. www.charlesbursell.com

Jul 13, 2021

Family support, infrastructure, gun violence, global inequality… there’s nothing democracy can’t fix. That is, if we can fix democracy. www.charlesbursell.com

Jul 12, 2021

The Alabamization of Wisconsin, “Nones” outnumber religious affiliations, and SF Gay Men’s Chorus hits the exact right note. Also: Reading Van Gogh. www.charlesbursell.com

Jul 8, 2021

The White Supremacist Fascist Republican Party claims to champion “free speech” while spewing propaganda on gun violence, transgender rights, and historical racism. www.charlesbursell.com

Jul 1, 2021

Looking for good news as US life expectancy plunges and Covid rises, the architect of “forever wars” and defender of torture Donald Rumsfeld is dead. www.charlesbursell.com

Jun 30, 2021

The right kind of note taking can greatly improve learning and be really fun. Also, more pet peeves: the off-putting “my friend,” consensual hugging, and social media fails. www.charlesbursell.com

Jun 29, 2021

Beating down American Fascist lies about crime, race, history, and government. www.charlesbursell.com
