Epitaph for an administration (or a country):

“People will die but we will never know, because even the programs to count the dead are cut.”

I will use every tool at my disposal to protect this country from Trump. I will litigate to defend voting rights until there are no cases left to bring. I will speak out against authoritarianism until my last breath.

I will not back down. I will not bow or scrape. I will never obey.

From Marc | Elon Musk recently posted on his site that another lawyer and I are “undermining civilization.” This is my response.

We have a peculiar historical event shaping up where the oligarch billionaire class is about to fleece this country while most of their supporters are working people who are convinced that they are on their side because they hate migrants & trans people.

As a teacher and a parent,
I approve this message
I read a quote today about not being afraid to raise dragon slayers in the time of actual dragons.

I’m taking off my teacher hat and talking to you as a parent.

Don’t be afraid to talk to your kids about where we are as a country and where we might go.

We’re raising voters.
Educate them.

In The Name of the Rose by Umberto Eco, after hearing about a massive & deadly scapegoating, the narrator asks why the peasants didn't attack the landlords, their true enemies, & is told, "When your real enemies are too strong, you get weaker enemies," & every day I think about this & also see it

Lean heavily into survival intuition. Find your people. Take care of your body/make all of the well visits. Drink water, consume less news, move a little.

Find slivers of joy and be one. Find one actionable thing. Do it well. Be a good human and kind to others. Yes. It still matters.

The idea that you *must* coexist with and listen to people who are cruel, unjust, and just plain unpleasant to be around is the logic of abusers, by the way

The Biden-Harris FTC announced a "click-to-cancel" rule that would make cancelling a subscription as easy as signing up for one.

A trade group representing big media companies like Comcast sued.

Corporate America hates it when government works on behalf of the people.

If you had to sum up this election in two words, "double standard" would do it.

Fact we're in the 'Twenties' sounds so weird. It's so synonymous with the 1920s. Sounds like a bygone era when women were still fighting for their rights, the upper classes were living a life of hedonism whilst people starved & the world was on the verge of financial ruin and war.
