John Lewis, Fannie Lou Hamer (z”l both) and Joan Mulholland are my action and spirit guides; drive my choices of advocacy. Long COVID caused forced work stoppage. The Disability Pride pins were created by a friend’s sister, a disabled artist.

Ah yes, the "hoax" of #ClimateChange says the US Regime PedoKing (ok, alleged until the report is really made public and if it's unredacted) and the remarkable photo of what was and what is all gone now.
Like pulling the plug of a bathtub: an incredible mass of #glacier ice disappearing at Griesgletscher (🇨🇭/🇮🇹) in one century.
It felt emotional to visit the exact same spot @swisstopo cartographers chose in 1919. The view was so different.
Simply unbelievable!!

Long a supporter of #MRFF to honor my dad (of blessed memory), a Jewish soldier who fought fascists in Europe in WWII. Mikey Weinstein and the Advisory Board work for those thanked for their service while being forced to endure what I call an “enemy within”: the regime.

Marcus Ford, like other Black men around the country, lives with a higher risk of dying from cancer due to factors out of his control. But Medicaid cuts may take away his treatment.

A superb use of one’s money is a subscription to @democracydocket.com.
If you want to stand up against Trump by supporting independent, pro-democracy media, consider subscribing (free or paid) to Democracy Docket. It has no venture capitalists, no corporate overlords, and n interest in currying favor with Trump. It will never back down or obey. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0
