I find that autobiographies are more engaging than fiction.
This audiobook is read by author @johnleguizamo.bsky.social
I listened twice and laughed out loud. I own this book, autographed by John and the illustrators by the audiobook is priceless! #nypl #brooklynpubliclibrary

Over 100,000 seats are up for grabs in 2025 — governors, mayors, city councils, state representatives, judges, school boards, and more.

Taking back our power starts now.

House Democrats are fighting to protect Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid.

The partisan Republican spending bill is an attack on veterans, seniors and families.

Unacceptable.

Yes. This:

"Unlike the past, none of us are going back. We’re not going to stay silent. We aren’t going to wait for permission to speak. We’re not going to tap dance and entertain for scraps. We’re not going to be docile paupers with our hands outstretched begging for opportunities."
Drain MSNBC of Viewers As It Whitewashes its Network to Placate Trump
Under the leadership of Rebecca Kutler, MSNBC has decided to silence, sideline, and cancel prominent anchors of color, such as Joy Reid. The rest of us can tune out and build our own media community.

The GOP passed a budget resolution tonight that will gut Medicaid, SNAP, and other vital programs — as 60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck.

Why? To finance more tax cuts for the top 1%.

We have socialism in this country for the rich, harsh capitalism for everyone else.

DOGE recommended firing workers at:

-FDA, which oversees Neuralink

-FAA, which oversees SpaceX

-USAID, which probed Starlink

-CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X.

"Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

I hear people say Trump is dismantling our democracy and no one is stopping him. Not so! Lawyers are the super heroes, with lawsuits and judges standing up for the rule of law. Check out the litigation tracker in justsecurity.org.

Black excellence: Twice as qualified, half as respected, and still passed over or labeled as a ‘DEI hire.’

Black folks have always known this because we’ve seen it happen to our own family members. I know I have.

In light of Trump II’s first 18 days of mayhem — including his and Musk’s coup against our system of government — many are asking: “What can I do now?”

Here’s a revised and expanded list, in rough order of importance.

Musk’s decision to restrict Starlink access during Ukraine’s defense against Russia raised serious ethical concerns. It highlighted the dangers of private individuals controlling critical infrastructure, especially in wartime. Trust in his judgment and reliability took a major hit globally.
