Is this seriously the top headline today, @nytimes.com ? Seriously?
Do better.

Feels like all the nonsense coming out of the White House right now is a distraction from all sorts of real, immediate issues, least of which is this load of nonsense:

www.whitehouse.gov/presidential... Ending Crime and Disorder on America's Streets – The White House

The best.

Notice the dollar amounts in headlines about campaign spending.

Every one of those dollars is spent making you angry and spiteful (b/c that’s what gets your attention).

It doesn’t matter what “side” you are on. You’re left feeling angry, resentful, powerless.

It doesn’t have to be like this.

This PBS documentary is over a decade old. In 2012 it was staggering how much money was being spent on political advertising + campaigns. How about today?

Have our lives improved since Citizens United unleashed unlimited spending into our political system?

This is how money is being spent in 2025. On electing what are supposed to be non-partisan judges.

Citizens United has been a pox on our country: shoving political advertisements down our throats and wasting gobs of money on politics.

Stopped into one of my family’s favorite Seattle oases this afternoon. 🐠🦀💙💚 @seattleaquarium.bsky.social

Best Station Ever is an understatement. KEXP plays the heart and soul of Seattle and is one of the beautiful things that makes me proud to be a Seattleite. @djjohnrichards.bsky.social www.spin.com/2025/03/left...

I keep coming back to Citizens United.

A single decision by the Supreme Court that has done nothing but make our lives more miserable. And is a central component to our divisions today.

Proud to see this from @jayapal.house.gov admin-jayapal.house.gov/2025/02/13/j...

We live in two completely different realities and we wonder why it’s hard to agree on anything.

Nearly-spring offering. 🩵🤎

“Very often, when we sued, we won,” said Rylander (about the first Trump administration). And we are going to keep suing.

I donated blood today! The crew at Bloodwork’s NW was kind, thoughtful, and gentle with me as a nervous newbie.
Can recommend as a way to help your fellow humans. ❤️

TFW your #coworking past pops up in your studies. Remember when we couldn’t stop saying “accelerated serendipity?” Krumboltz was way out ahead of us with “planned happenstance.” 🤣

This is the scene that keeps playing in my mind this week. #tedlasso #rebeccaforpresident
