I saw a poem I really liked posted on social media somewhere and now can’t remember what it was or where.

So here’s another fave.

Cheryl Hines

The line I’ll always remember:

“I was fifteen years old.”

Night by Elie Wiesel

What exactly would you like to see happen?

That’s what’s been happening in Chicago and Portland. But the entire nation can’t show up in those places. It won’t look the same here as it does in France.

Organizing locally is what is/will happen.

Europeans don’t seem to realize just how big America is. And what it means to not have social safety nets.

I love music reaction videos. It’s fun to see someone discover something you love. My fave channel for that is lostinvegas. But there’s also a video of a guitar teacher discovering Tori Amos via a live performance of “Me and A Gun” that I can watch on repeat.

The biggest spider I’ve ever seen in the wild was in the tunnels under Las Vegas. I think. I mean I didn’t stop to measure it.

My dad was in the military in the 50s and when my brothers were teenagers in the 80s told them that if there was ever a draft he would drive them to Canada.

My protest sign during the Musk era of this admin said:

“If there are 3 people in the Oval Office and one of them is a Nazi, how many Nazis are there in the Oval Office?”

Threatening innocent teachers' lives in honor of Charlie Kirk is definitely a way to prove to the naysayers that Charlie Kirk was a super nice guy with a positive message who in no way was a professional agitator and didn't sow evil for sport and profit.
