Imagine living in an echo chamber where everyone is scared to disagree with you. That’s not growth or evolving, that’s exactly where you have always felt the most comfortable.

"Dora" tells us that harvesting season is her favorite season as she gets to watch the early a.m. sunrise. It's also much cooler to work as they harvest the grapes at night when it's cold so the sugar levels are at its peak and the grape isn’t soft due to the heat. #WeFeedYou

(Also, I just learned one reason the FDA rejected it at first was that they said the name Plan B was too glib!)
Great obit—no paywall.

my high school teacher mom is individually raising money to help cover the expense for the kids who are losing SNAP coverage at her school and members of Congress make roughly 2-4 times the income of the average high school teacher in America

ICE is using faulty and biased face surveillance technology to go after people they suspect of being undocumented.
This is a direct threat to the fundamental rights of every individual and has no place in our cities.

One of the key ways you refuse to comply with fascism is by becoming even louder and more fearless in supporting vulnerable people. You SHOW that you are unwilling to throw the "undesirables" under the bus if only for self-preservation because under fascism you will also become undesirable one day.
