They’re taking kids from Minnesota and sending them to detention camps. They’re shooting American citizens in the street and locking investigators out of the crime scenes. The world is watching what happens next.

If you're living somewhere outside the USA, one thing you can do is pressure your leaders to boycott World Cup and Olympic events here.

There's a lot to do, and none of it is your sole responsibility, and not everyone is in a position to do every task.
But as Gandalf said of Merry and Pippin -- the falling of small stones can start an avalanche. So look for small opportunities to love your neighbors.

Edgar hasn't exactly been what-you-might-call helpful with the yearly winter puzzle effort; he tells everyone he plays more of a supervisory role.

Somehow, things get more dumb every day.
The Norwegian Nobel Prize committee has been forced to make a statement, declaring that the prize cannot be transferred.
It's hard even to comprehend how stupid this has become

So many white people are just now realizing that if they were murdered on the street in cold blood by a masked agent of the state, their family members would tell the media, “she just should have complied.”

The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.

It’s been two weeks since ICE took Yuanxin Zheng from his father. He is six years old. He’s still not home. This has to end.

What I always hear: “We can’t afford to pay our workers more than $15 an hour.”
What I never hear: “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.”
Funny how that works.

Sorry I could not finish my paper but the neighbor's car alarm went off and over the course of the afternoon I went slowly mad until eventually they found me on the floor between the couch and the coffee table, silently weeping...

Pastor Black: While I was in the middle of using the words of Jesus, they opened fire on me. It was so clear that they had been so poorly trained, or — the alternative — that they had been deliberately told to escalate violence against peaceful protesters.
