This is straight up terrorism. State-sponsored destruction of an iconic, publicly-owned symbol of democracy and women in power. This is a bunch of bullshit.

Shady developers demolish buildings when they know they’re violating historic building codes and won’t get approval for what they want to do. And once the building is gone, it’s gone.
So yeah, about that East wing…

A spooky month memento mori. 🧵
It’s out there - the heavy, clinging dark. It rustles and chirps. It presses expectantly at the edges of the weak circle of light on the stoop, bits of it sneaking in behind traitorous tufts of grass in the dirt. You clutch a plastic bag of trash in your clammy hand.

Good Thursday! The eve of the weekend! The home stretch! (Did you stretch today? Do it.)
Y’all, I don’t have much else to say except that you should go and make your voice a loud one today. There are shenanigans afoot.

Tuesday.
I’m going to start with your reminder to take care of yourself. Stretch, drink water, do something that brings you joy.
But I also want to emphasize how crucial your effort to engage is right now. What’s happening in LA is not legal, and it’s not normal.

Thanks, Episcopal Church! You’re not perfect, but you get a lot right. I’m so upset that the administration is bringing these folks here while they’re kidnapping and ejecting people who are from places where they’re actually in danger.
The church said it's terminating a decades-long partnership with the federal government to help refugees arriving in the U.S., citing moral opposition to resettling white Afrikaners from South Africa.

It’s Sunday! If you’ve got time today, take the opportunity to explore a new small business. Maybe it’s a new thing you didn’t know you could get in your community, or maybe it’s an alternative to a big box store. Whatever it is, I hope it’s a delight!
