The first person I donated miles for is safely home. That's a good feeling.
DID YOU KNOW?

If you have Delta Sky Miles, you can donate them to help a kidnapped-and-released person fly home!

They are set free on the streets of El Paso or another Texas town with no phone, no money, nothing at all. Your miles can get them back to their loved ones!

Currently obsessed with the idea of Ian McKellen and Patrick Stewart on the Muppet Show. But instead of guests they play a couple with their own booth who get into a heckling competition with Statler and Waldorf.

In California, police didn't investigate after two men were shot by federal immigration agents in separate incidents.

Police in Phoenix said they are leaving it to the FBI and ICE to probe the shooting of a man who allegedly fled immigration agents.

So… just buy the inexpensive, flat bottom carbon steel wok for induction. It needs prompt, non-dishwasher cleaning, and should probably live in the oven, but it’ll make even meh stir fries taste good, it’s easier to work with than stainless steel, and you won’t have to worry about teflon et al.

Exploration. Discovery. Danger. A Steerswoman goes where she must.

The Steerswoman book series doesn't have a TV show or movies (yet?) so I put this together from other sources! Highly recommend the books - they're a lot of fun!

And look, I’ll say this: I have met very wealthy people who are perfectly lovely. Liberal money does exist.

But money is power. And too much of it in the hands of a few people is very dangerous.

It’s anti-democratic. It’s unsustainable. And we have to do something about it.

I learned this lesson early on, growing up in an area where a seasonal influx of extreme wealth created extreme upward economic pressure.

Some folks look at wealth as aspirational. I’ve always viewed it as destructive, hollow, entitled…detached.

Reducing everything to dollars means nothing is sacred.

The level of wealth inequality we see in the U.S. is completely unsustainable. It’s destroying *everything* — including the planet we all share.

Billionaires are parasites hollowing us out from the inside. Surprise! They don’t like democracy.

What we’re seeing with WaPo is part of a larger trend.

If it’s not clear by now, there is nothing big money gets its hands on that does not dirty and destroy.

- housing
- law
- govt
- media
- entertainment

What we call “enshittification” is really the capitalization of everything.

Now would be a good time for Democrats to explain the “crime” these people are being punished for. Crossing the border is a civil offense. It’s not even a misdemeanor in some cases. Why such severe inhumane treatment? Democrats should say it’s because are not white. Their crime is their color.
