I am your constituent. Begging you to convince the feckless cowards in your caucus to HOLD THE LINE

Found a small water spot on my kitchen ceiling 6 months ago. One thing led to another and now my kitchen and bathroom are both gutted, we’ve been showering in wooden box outside since May.

Same, never thought I’d even contemplate doing so, but here we are ..

Came to the same conclusion myself - my son left school the first week of 11th grade. He got his GED and has blazed his own trail since. He’s now 21, happy, confident, & working as an EMT. Says he might want to go to nursing school in the future (!!)
I’ve learned so much from his courage.

Likes to condescend about people using the word fascism too. He’s become a parody of himself.

I was in middle school when that album was released. Wore out the cassette, bought it again on CD a few years later. I was too young to truly understand those lyrics, but I could *feel* them. Little did I know how often I’d be reaching for her music or that song in particular, all these years later.

My theory is that the Great Consolidation of streaming apps has begun. By the time it’s over, they will have reinvented cable TV.

Whenever I leave a visit with an incarcerated client, I don’t say goodbye or see you later or have a nice day. I tell people to “take good care”.

Taking good care - of ourselves and each other - also happens to be the way we weather this storm, and the method by which we prevail.

You know what? I’m not going to fight with you about who has it worse - it’s counterproductive and hurtful to all of us. Thank you for your continued activism. I hope you can find some compassion for younger generations as they try to navigate these times.

Same here. Seems to be a subset of older folks who enjoy denigrating young people, this has always been true. There are a lot of USians of all ages engaging in various levels of activism right now. I think ppl are, by and large, doing the best they can.
