Twin mom. Sports fan. Community activist and gun violence prevention advocate in my spare time.
My kid is getting bullied repeatedly for wearing his favorite baseball team’s shirt. He would happily talk stats, history, or anything else about anyone else’s team because this kid loves baseball so much. Recreational cruelty has been habituated in this country and I hate it.

My friend Matt Ferrara was one of the KIA on 9NOV. Silver Star for actions taken to end the attack on the Ranch House on 22AUG. It was a brutal deployment for 2-503 all the way to Wanat, and especially for the Chosen Few. He was the best of us, and he is missed. All the KIA are missed.

It wasn’t always an easy fight to fund NASA over the past couple of decades but this is an historic back turning on science and innovation that we’re facing. We are literally abandoning completed projects ready to launch - talk about waste, fraud, and abuse. We used to stand for something.

The first year was without a doubt the hardest. Taking action to spare others what my colleagues and I know is what keeps me going. In that spirit, I share links to events/orgs I support:

Seven years later, and we are not free of the consequences of that day. Ongoing lawsuits, triggering occurrences and PTSD, an electorate that consistently polls high for common sense laws and systemic change but an Administration and Congress that trades public health/safety for “owning the libs”.

It's been 7 years since many lives were changed forever with the shooting at The Pathway Home in Yountville CA. I grieve what was lost that day, for the lives taken, for those of us in that room who are different people now, for our community that is one of too many who have gone through this.

Anyone else getting the opportunity to share their thoughts with GSA when visiting the non-core property list page?

Had similar feelings to this video as we hit many of the same sites while on a trip there 2 weeks ago. Taking in what the public good can achieve while watching the current Administration toss much of it into the wood chipper. We resist.

Run for something! But if you aren’t interested in running yourself, these candidate training programs need your support. I’m in the 2025 Emerge CA class with a fierce group of diverse women gearing up to fight for your rights.

“Fifteen things Trump did this week”, like a pop culture list de jour is the best BBC can come up with for their mews alert teaser? WTF.
