I’m not sure who this man is, but he spoke truth to power in LA—telling the military they’re not here to serve a wannabe dictator. They swore an oath to the Constitution, not to authoritarianism. Every public figure should have that kind of courage.

Update on my life: Last year, I joined my kids' school's PTA, because they needed a treasurer and I'm good enough with numbers. It was a straightforward, self-contained job: balancing the checkbook for an organization that only did a few fundraisers each year.

D’s honor walk. Deeply moving moment of grace. Another family member filmed because I was just trying to remain upright.

We’re starting to see the results of corporate greed.
This 2019 story feels relevant today. Did it end with the 737 Max—or was it policy? Cutting costs to near-minimum wage shouldn’t be priority over lives & safety.

📌 Boeing outsourced 737 Max software coding to $9/hour engineers, laying off in-house talent & subcontracting offshore to save money

Having trouble waking up to your alarm clock? Upgrade to the boisterous braying of the African penguin. Their raucous racket is guaranteed to wake you from even the deepest sleep. (Also highly effective as car alarms, air horns, and breaking awkward silences.) 📣🐧

I still think the best way for electeds & the media to counter right wing messaging is to just call them fucking morons, weirdos & crackpots. Explaining facts & details is boring. "Senator whatshisface wants to abolish the FDA? That's because he's a fucking nutjob." And leave it at that.

Māori MPs briefly suspended the Aotearoa parliament’s attempts to reinterpret their founding treaty in the most bad ass use of the Haka I’ve ever seen.
