Jimmy Carter, a visionary on ending fossil fuels, put solar panels on the White House. Big Oil-backed Ronald Reagan ousted Carter in 1980 and ripped them out

Tonight, as Carter lies in in state in the Capitol, a climate-fueled wildfire is destroying Reagan's former hometown of Pacific Palisades

I'm already laden with the background anxiety of having ADHD. My nervous system is on high alert nonstop anyway.

Still, that said, my rules of engagement with this administration will be: No.
Also - please spend time deciding how you are going to engage with the content this administration and the complicit media are going to be putting out from here on out.

Our nervous systems are precious resources and keeping them in a hyper-reactive state is BAD-real bad. We need to be intentional.

I’m seeing a lot of vile language being used against sex workers right now because of the rise in porn bots. The problem here is BOTS, not sex workers. 🧵

Today's afternoon adulting is filling out my advance health care directive wishes. The hardest part is finding sufficiently binding legal language to forbid my mother from ever making any decisions on my behalf.

In 1979, Jimmy Carter installed solar panels on the White House. In 1986, Ronald Reagan tore them down along w/Carter’s clean energy funding.

This sums up the difference between the two men & political parties. Investing in solutions for the future vs canceling progress to score political points.

Preserving my comment from another thread about coasting the disabled in our lives and work. From crafting policy to designing and building real world experiences, we will all eventually need accessibility and accommodation.
We are all only temporarily abled, since aging comes for us all. And so many people benefit from accessibility measures, we're helping everyone when we build toward an accessible and accommodating world.

Great bipartisan legislation idea for the new congress:

Pass universal free breakfast and lunch in public schools.

It would cost less than one percent of what the federal government spends on education.

No hungry kids. No stigma. Higher morale. Better grades.

It's a no-brainer.

Finland is teaching children in school how to recognize fake news and propaganda as part of critical thinking and civic responsibility. Some of this will seem very familiar.

Be. Like. Finland.
