There are good things in the world. Some people want to make it suck.
Doing my part to make our world better.

Writing to help others know what's at stake.
I'm not surprised.

Don't just say it's unconstitutional, remind people that the constitution is full of very good ideas designed to prevent authoritarianism, and most people who want to ignore it want that specifically because they are authoritarian.

Everyone has their thing. I wouldn't be surprised if she has a secret bathroom sign collection like stamps.

"And this 'Whites Only' sign from 1934 is my favorite. Passed down from my mother and her mother..."

My mind is on Spring Break, and I made a baby squirrel friend.

Hey folks, they are all liars and are putting our lives at risk. How many other chats like these disappeared? How have they endangered us - the people?

These are the questions that need answers now.

They really, really hate old and poor people. Before safety nets, they died from disease and starvation. These people are really bringing this back to the mainstream.
Trump’s commerce secretary Howard Lutnick says if Social Security skipped a check, his mother-in-law wouldn’t complain—and if you would, it indicates you are probably a fraudster. Insane.

Sometimes you need a break from posting and media. I felt myself increasing my time spent scrolling, so I changed that time to walking, writing, cleaning up my garden for spring, reading a chapter or two.

Take care of yourself to take care of others. Be well and do good, folks.

Hey folks, take care of yourselves when you see this

Have some water.
Take a short walk.
Look at a pic of a loved one or pet.
Go sit in the sun with no phone for 10 minutes.

You got this. Go do good in the world.

Take a break because you just need a break. Time away gives you just another chance to barely catch up to the dumpster fire.

Know that work continues even when your eyes are weary. Rest and refresh to then cover while others rest.

I was just having a conversation on this. They will change how they measure data to cover up their harm and destruction. The next report or two will be the last reliable ones as they start showing signs of recession.

Musk/Trump Republicans are robbing America. Flag wrapped, cross carrying.
Their next move to cover up their failures, from Republicans in Congress and the Trump Admin, is to try and change the way that things are measured. Watch.

Applaud good actions. Support good people.

People with bad intent and bad character can have good actions. A few good actions sprinkled in a mudhole of hate doesn't warrant support.

We are going to keep hearing these stories. Share them widely. Someone is listening.

We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

A president we cannot trust at his word should not be president. If you have to keep giving the benefit of the doubt and have to tell folks, "that's not what he means," and then try to say that, "he tells it like it is," then you just may be a fool.

The sooner we collectively realize that Elon Musk is a shitposting, conspiracy-addled fool, who needs to stay out of public policy not upend it, the safer we’ll all be.

Happy Valentine's Day, folks. Spread some good love and cheer. In difficult and dark times, a genuinely kind gesture goes far.

The corruption is blatant. He didn't resign, so Adams must be removed.

A victory tour on Fox and Friends is an insult to every one of us.
Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges.

This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

I spoke at DePaul University this evening with a group of amazing, politically engaged students.

The professor who invited me showed me this 1894 newspaper clipping about Italian immigrants eating cats and dogs.

I had never seen it before.

The more things change...

I can’t believe the Supreme Court said the president was above the law and now the president is acting like he’s above the law.
