Have a listen to an interview with Gillams mayor, Joy Burt, and I with Bernice Hillier about our project, Frolic! We will be celebrating it with a parade tomorrow at 7 pm!

Stop asking billionaires questions, recording their answers and sharing their uninformed and/or racist and/or otherwise bigoted and nonsense ideas as journalism. It’s ridiculous. They are the most boring people. Oh wah I am a white man who has more money than I can spend and I’m so mad about it!

A State Department employee shared with PBS News an image from inside the department. The image includes a piece of paper taped to a mirror with the words, "Colleagues, if you remain: RESIST FASCISM. Remember the oath you vowed to uphold."

A Tender Update about Joanna Macy - Work That Reconnects Network In this bittersweet moment, we hold many things at once: deep gratitude for her life, sorrow at her impending departure, and awe at the grace and presence she brings even now. One friend shared today ...

One of the best among us…. If you’re looking for an example of how to be in the world, you should look no further than Joanna Macy. She’s a true human.

May we all aspire to her level of clarity and courage. I have no doubt the ancestors have cleared a comfy spot to welcome her!

A contender for the most β€œShow me your budget and I’ll tell you who you are” bills in modern history.

An act of breathtaking moral monstrosity and nearly unprecedented self-sabotage for the country.

New York Times: Senate Republicans Reprise Push to Pay for Tax Cuts by Slashing Food Stamps

New York Times: Senate Republicans Reprise Push to Pay for Tax Cuts by Slashing Food Stamps

How grotesque.

The Republican reconciliation bill cuts nutrition programs for hungry kids in order to give tax breaks to billionaires.

Good luck to my Republican colleagues in explaining the morality of that to their constituents.

In Bell, CA an entire community stood up against ICE, including the local police and the fire dept. The fire truck appears to not allow ICE vehicles to move forward nor remain and pushes forward to escort them out. A police car also helped with escorting. /

Attenborough’s Ocean is the film I’ve been waiting my whole career for – now the world must act on its message | George Monbiot The documentary shows the damage that fishing does to our planet. So why does the industry still hold governments to ransom? asks Guardian columnist George Monbiot

The plunder of our seas by industrial fishing is a monstrosity in which almost everyone unwittingly collaborates. For decades this truth has been deliberately hidden from us. Now at last the consensus is cracking.

Frolic goes up this weekend! Frolic is a collaboration between myself and the women in my home Town of Gillams. We held a series of conversations last summer and since then I’ve done a series of interviews one on one with women and girls in town. The results of this will be installed in the museum.

I do wonder what it costs financially to have an army occupying Los Angeles and why I keep being told the government doesn't have enough money to pay for public schools to buy supplies for their teachers

I’d love to send you some yarn! Also, I have another hat that I have been meaning to ask you if you want it. It’s a slouchy hat with some handspun and some machine made yarn

A Giant Vulva Is Walking the Streets of Europe Dressed in flowing pink robes, artist and activist Dee Mulrooney β€” or β€œGrowler” β€” is urging the British Museum to return a SΓ­le na GiΔ‘ statue back to Ireland.

On International Women’s Day, an 82-year-old alchemical vulva boarded the London Tube to protest in front of parliament. Her name is Growler, and she is portrayed by Irish artist-activist Dee Mulrooney wearing flowing red and pink robes and hoods.

Really says a lot about Republicans that they blocked their own budget bill because it didn’t harm enough people.
