Wow, that was the biggest protest I've ever been to. Couldn't see the end in either direction. Also the most diverse, across multiple dimensions. Way to go, #SF!

Icing on the cake was the hula performance at Yerba Buena Park after. We celebrate diversity and Indigenous culture & power!

Horrific framing, @nytimes.com. How about
Federal Agencies Reinstate $220 Million in Essential Contracts: A Times investigation reveals rampant scandals at DOGE, with numerous false claims and illegal contract terminations.
These aren't scary zombies. They're agreements to serve the public.

P.S. Thanks for your service, @altnps.bsky.social!! The park was spectacular.
Beyond just admiring the sequoias, I enjoyed learning how they heal their burn scars over time by growing over them from the sides. And a very nice ranger explained to me how the trees have migrated over time. Thanks!

Three Rivers is purple, in a deep red area. But my sense was that everyone felt a new need to mobilize, to demand basic *respect* for:
human dignity
public service (civil and military)
nature
the local economy
elders
bodily autonomy
children's future
international order
due process
rule of law.

I'm visiting Sequoia Nat'l Park, so Little B & I spent yesterday morning at the #HandsOff protest in Three Rivers, the gateway town. So inspiring!!
Turnout was 175-200 people, 10% of the population. Everyone I talked to was from town or nearby: elders, veterans, parents, off-duty park employees...

Today I stood outside our neighborhood coffee shop in my red white and blue @climateride.bsky.social jersey, with cardboard signs, and made some new friends! No matter how small we may feel, we can all do something to support rule of law.
