Today must be making an impact. I am seeing a bunch of Amazon ads telling people about all the independent sellers. They are trying to make people feel like shopping there is the same as shopping independent stores. Best thing to do is bypass Amazon and go directly to those independent sellers.

The 5Calls app makes contacting your elected officials easy. If you aren't sure what to say, they have a script based on which issue you choose. Please make calls every day. It matters and make more impact than emails.

I just went to my bank's local branch and asked about how my data would be protected from the breach. This is one way to spread the news to people legitimately and just be calm and informative. I told them to google "Elon Musk treasury access."

"Fact Checking" on FB. I am seeing a lot of post where you can't read comments. Always anti-Trump related posts.

In the new Trump presidency, we have got to remain focused. We can’t panic.

No matter how many executive orders he signs or statements he issues, our goal is the same:

We must fight to create an America based on economic, social & environmental justice.

I converted one of our bookcases to forward facing. I built an insert for the bottom 2/3. Less expensive, and why not use what we already have?!?! Kids forget about so many wonderful books in our home library. They even forget books they choose at the library. I'll rotate weekly.

The boys added Indus Valley buildings to their Ancient History Lego base today. We also started the Minecraft build challenges from Curiosity Chronicles.

A few days ago I was providing a presentation on Ukraine to an older group of people and asked them if anyone knew about the Holomodor. No one did.

Yes, the Russians know, and that’s a part of why they want to subjugate Ukraine.
Ukraine is the breadbasket of the world, producing enough food to feed 400 million people. Trump will hand Ukraine to Putin, and Trump's trade war w/Mexico and Canada could conceivably make us dependent on Putin-controlled Ukraine food production. Especially after he deports migrant ag workers.
