This is the Cuyahoga River.

Before the EPA, it was so polluted with factory waste that it caught fire several times.

Now you can eat the fish you catch in it.

Before the clean water act, this river was so polluted that it CAUGHT FIRE several times.

Local/bipartisan efforts along with activism in Washington helped restore it and many others like it.

Don't forget WHY we have regulations and regulators.
Remember that the GOP once stood for what is right.

However, imperfect, this union may sometimes be it is ours, and this is our building, and no one can take it away from us

MAGA is playing word games with the term "facisim," and we should be ready to respond
Dr Lawrence Britt published a paper in 2003 called "Facism Anyone?" .....

It is a good field guide to recognizing and responding to attempts to equiovocate around the terminology

I plant almost every seed that comes out of a piece of fruit or even some vegetables, but I never label them, and invariably whatever plant grows is a surprise.

Does anyone know what these are?

I've always found this is the best way to prioritize things in front of me.

Maybe it can help some of us navigate through the difficult and / or distracting issues that we encounter

Spring brings hope

It is easy to take hope for granted.
It is easy to lose hope.

Hope takes work and discipline.

This is a very thought-provoking article, and everyone should read the book.
It is manifestly anti-christian to subjugate women
