The US needed public transit starting in the 50s. Half because the auto and oil industries don't profit from public transit. The ither half is because limited transit keeps the poor "in their place".

Not having public transport running on a Sunday should be illegal. People's lives don't stop on Sundays. Fuck I hate America. Planning to get to downtown events without a car is literal hell.

The first thing Virginia Spanberger did after being sworn in as Governor of Virginia was repeal Youngkin’s executive order requiring state and local law enforcement to cooperate with ICE.

This is the kind of leadership Democratic governors nationwide should be emulating.

A small cluster of purple flowers standing quietly against soft green, noticed only by slowing down. Sometimes stillness is the story.

Worth a quiet pause.

I drove a LOT the last two weeks. Through WA, OR, ID, NV, CA, & AZ, down into Baja & back.

I repeatedly saw graffiti in different states: Jude 1:2. Didn't know that Bible verse, so I looked it up.

"May mercy, peace, and love be yours in abundance."

I'm not religious but that's a nice blessing.

If the report that Ukraine provided fake military coordinates to the U.S. that was then messaged to Russia, why isn’t this the latest top story of Russia-FOTUS collusion? Blatant and disgraceful…

We must stop trying to make rational sense out of what Trump is doing. He is a ruthless dictator, plan and simple.

Local parents groups asking if adults can ride school buses to help protect children from ICE after a special ed bus got stopped this morning. Like a Dirty Harry movie except the villain in the federal government.
