When trying to be polite to a distant family member I haven't talked to in ~20 years who is boomer/genx cusp and I only have a phone number to use--- do I call or text?
if it matters, chances are good she'll think I'm contacting her because someone's dead, which *isn't* true.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.
The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.
People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.
And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

I asked a neighbor to continue walking my kids to school and I turned back to document and confront the ICE agents.
