Love this song from John Denver who is sorely missed! I always felt that John Denver was way ahead of us all. He was environmentally friendly and was aware of how important it is to take care of planet earth!

The WaPo cuts are devastating. And to cut the Books section entirely makes the already bleak critical landscape even more bare. This was all preventable but Bezos, who could find the post I perpetuity without noticing it, is hellbent on destroying the Post. And for what?

This isn’t about convicting Don Lemon. It’s unlikely that will happen. It’s about intimidating journalists & making them censure themselves out of fear of consequences. It’s about eroding the free press because the administration can’t afford the criticism.
This just in: "Don Lemon was taken into custody by federal agents last night in Los Angeles, where he was covering the Grammy awards," Lemon's attorney Abbe Lowell says.

Is it possible that the reason we struggle to create a world that prioritizes the health and safety of every child is directly related to most adults (and parents) being formerly unprotected children, conditioned to make excuses, or be grateful for, the abuse and neglect they endured in childhood?

My cousin texted me about ICE patrolling her apartment complex, and how a bunch of kids won’t go to the bus stop anymore. This is terror. And, as usual, the children will suffer most.

The church once played a leading role in social movements. But today many progressive church leaders have become careful about appearing partisan, which has allowed right-wing Christian nationalism to define the conversation about religion and politics. newyorkermag.visitlink.me/XN-RVG
Can American Churches Lead a Protest Movement Under Trump?
The Sanctuary Movement was led by clergy, and many religious leaders are activists today. But, as congregations have shrunk, dissent has diminished.

Did this 5+ years ago. Why on earth are people having their business out there??
FOR THE LOVE OF EVERYTHING, MAKE YOUR VENMO PRIVATE. Seriously, I don’t even want to see my “friends” transactions. You paid someone $10 for dinner? Awesome, I hope it was good and also I don’t care.

Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything we’ve seen in this country in a very long time.
Video of the international student at Tufts being arrested by "federal authorities" in Massachusetts has been released and it's terrifying.
They're not even uniformed officers. Just secret police thugs in hoodies and masks.

Trump and DOGE have fired 25,000 federal workers so far.
Now Trump and DOGE have to hire them back thanks to court orders.
Most workers have been placed on administrative leave — technically rehired and paid, but still unable to do vital work in our communities.
