I mean... that was always the plan right? Invite Zelensky, ambush him, then act like it's his fault for the administration doing exactly what they had planned to do anyway.

A black and white illustration of a baby rabbit and a baby raccoon, sitting in a field by a treat under a starry sky. The rabbit asks, "How are you doing?" The raccoon answers, "I want to bite people"

That Oval Office debacle today solidified two things:

1. The US is not a trusted ally

2. Zelensky is a hero

Too exasperating to write "Black History Month" in tiny unreadable font on a calendar square.... Says a company that has produced over 5000 Google doodles to celebrate cultural events worldwide...😑

Janomes are one of the best ever! When I worked at a costume house the 20 yr old Janome and the 20 year old metal Singer were the machines we all hoped to get to first. They could sew through glass I swear... I have a 40 year old one (my grandma's I'm pretty sure) that's still ticking.

Weak men cannot compromise. Weak men cannot build consensus. Weak men think that leadership means force. Weak men build nothing that lasts.

Hope sustained us before. I can confidently say that I and the vast majority of my friends and colleagues all feel very distant from it, as well. And most of us are organizers, advocates and public servants.

Hard agree. Irritated at the number of people suggesting the AP gas no bias and is the best place to get news rn. It isn't. This isn't the first woefully docile reporting of abhorrent actions.

We're probably not further away from collapse than the average American is to becoming homeless-two distances woefully under-calculated by the vast majority of US citizens.

Discrimination and dehumanization hurts everybody. Period. Memorize it. Internalize it.

Uncommon Explorations - Somewhere in Japan There are so many ways to approach exploring a city, but getting lost is probably the best way to get to know a place, and getting lost with the right person

My walking tours page has been updated with clearer explanations of what I'm up to and how it all works. Good for visitors and residents alike, let's get this thing going!

Shares appreciated!

SHARE WIDELY.
KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.

With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights.

You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one.
