Today is St. Martin's Day, Old Halloween! 🍂
Marking the end of harvest/start of winter, it is a liminal time for bonfires, lantern processions, feasts and wine.
Welsh folklore tells us to watch out for eerie omens: owls hoot, meteors fall & the Cŵn Annwn (spectral hounds) roam.

From street marches to court battles to the ballot box - we’ve challenged the power of this exceptionally unpopular president.

The lesson from each success we've had is that we need to ramp the political pressure up, always up, not back down, now more than ever.

The president ran on "Kamala is for they/them, Trump is for you," but who exactly is the "you" in question?

happy bday German writer/philosopher Friedrich Schiller, b.1759.

“Keep true to the dreams of thy youth.”

“Be noble minded! Our own heart, and not other men's opinions of us, forms our true honor.”

“Truth exists for the wise, beauty for the feeling heart.”

The People are not happy this Monday morning
Democrats have been fighting for months to address America's healthcare crisis

For the millions who will lose coverage
For people with cancer who won't get the care they need
For working families who can't afford to pay $25K more a year for healthcare

We will keep fighting

Duran Duran's "Rio" started with John Taylor’s vision of Rio as a never-ending party. Simon Le Bon instead wrote lyrics about a girl named Rio. The track's unique intro came from Nick Rhodes tossing metal rods onto piano strings, reversing the sound for effect.
