Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

They are not the same.

when we win the masked agents raid our neighborhoods. what do they cover up?

(yesterday) already died. (yesterday) is dying. (yesterday) will die again. there is no future in (yesterday). the agents in our neighborhoods hide their faces because they are losing. because they lost. when we win, there will be whistles from the gulls circling Lake Michigan. let them sing it: Chicago is a city of (today) & (tomorrow).

The depth of the shame of a country this wealthy and abundant allowing its people to go hungry is impossible to measure. The fact that a handful of people could fix this by paying their fair share of taxes while still remaining obscenely wealthy makes it even worse.

My first retail job! And that year we played the same Christmas CD from October-February because corporate forgot to send us a new one. Thought I’d lose my mind!

About this Florida vaccine story:

When they were little - 1 yr and 3 1/2 - my two older boys, who’d had all their shots, got whooping cough.
