In addition to the "carbon footprint offset" program, we should have a "Bezos footprint offset" program for those who feel they must continue to patronize Amazon, the Washington Post or Whole Foods. Why not contribute a matching amount to those fighting Trump authoritarianism such as the ACLU?

The pattern is astounding in its consistency:
They have no interest in the common good.
They will never build, they will only subtract.

Thousands of investors in Trump’s crypto scheme lost $2 billion in just weeks while the Trump Organization racked up $100 million in trading fees.

The Oral History Committee of the Red River Rainbow Seniors is still searching for a Planning Facilitator for the oral history Transgender & Gender Diverse Project. On the advice of SAGE we hope to be organizing at least one “listening” session with members of the T&GD communities in Fargo.
