Election Day. I won't tell anybody how to vote, but look into what is on the ballot to you, locally. Your vote has greater impact close to home.

House to the south made a big display in both their front and back yards for Halloween. College kids renting the house to the North are in costume handing out candy as well. Currently we've had 5 trick or treaters.

These No Kings rallies/protests seem to always happen on a Saturday. What impact would there be if the work/school week was disrupted by protest instead of just doing this on the weekends?

Nice to hear the Trump Admin might be prosecuting people for social media posts. I've been online since the 90's, digging out all the stuff I've posted might be a full time job. And its guaranteed I've forgotten the context of some posts.

Insisting everyone feel bad and grieve over Charlie Kirk's Death even if you were part of a group he persecuted feels like when a black person gets killed by police and the media immediately ask the family if they forgive the killer. Same energy.
