I have a bulk-sized box of hand warmers in my car. I hand out packs to any homeless or cold-looking person I pass. It’s small but it helps.
The bigger part is looking them in the eye and acknowledging them, which sadly too few others do. I might not be able to do much but “I see you. Stay warm”

“They are using the mechanism of armed officers with masks who are killing citizens to create disruption so they can use more force to eliminate the possibility they could be removed from office and suffer criminal sanctions for the crimes they are now committing”

Oxymoron du jour: "Principled Republican"
Any elected Republican with an ounce of integrity would leave the party. Not one in Congress is leaving because they're all cowards or fascist bootlickers or both. (*Though Massie has been doing some good from the inside).
MN Gubernatorial candidate Chris Madel withdrew this morning from the race, saying "he cannot support the national GOP’s “stated retribution on the citizens of our state, nor can I count myself a member of a party that would do so.”

I went to bed around 2 am and we only had about an inch on the ground. I could still see where I'd swept.
9:30 am: It's 10°F with 14 mph winds gusting to 27 mph from the NNE, and the snow is still falling.
I honestly don't see the point of trying to clear anything right now.

I opened my front door to sweep off the approx 1" of powder that had fallen by the time the sun set and scared a poor little house finch that had been nesting in my wreath. It was so disoriented, it flew inside the house! Sorry birdie! 😲
