Levi Coffin has inspired the name of a new project - "Levi Coffin House" where homes across the globe become a place of safety in a system much like the Underground Railroad. Designed to move people who are in imminent danger, such as Trans peeps or immigrant families, to places of permanent safety.

FYI A modern day "Railroad" is forming to be sure people in danger can be moved quickly, if needed. Nodes, or "Stations" as Levi called them, will be termed, "Levi Coffin Homes."

What my grgrgr grandfather Levi Coffin, known as the "President of the Underground Railroad," said:

I agree. That's why I do as much as I can anonymously.

What's ironic here is that no person who is kind by nature, ever conducts kindness for their own health, they do it because it's their nature. On the flip side, people who are not kind, will never be swayed to become kind just because it might improve their health. You either care or you don't.

Happy New Year! 👏🎉

I start my new year the day after Xmas so that I can get a run up to the big day. 🙂 In 2025, know these truths:

You are seen. ❤
You are heard. ❤
You matter. ❤

I recited this out loud last night at bedtime, and for the first time in over 3 decades, I slept 6+ hours.👏🏻🙏🏻 #2025

Heather Cox Richardson: The Reality Showification of the Government We are seeing in real time what it looks like to turn a democracy over to an oligarch, namely the unstable guy from South Africa who thinks he's going to be emperor of the universe.

When you take money away from vulnerable populations, they die quicker and thus are less of a drag on the rich white men in the system, right?

They're not just your statements, they're our statements. They'll have to come get each one of us. We'll never be intimidated into being quiet.

Wow, that is so true. So, so lazy.

The first lady's true colors.

My only hope is that this quackery of disgusting fungi spends so much time ingesting each other that the country manages to survive them.

No, THANK YOU. Truly an icon and much appreciated. I so gratefully found you guys in 2016. 🙌🏻

Highly recommend these guys as a follow. They've been a saving grace for my sanity since 2016.

So true about Merrick Garland, and also many others. Joe Biden could be acting heroically RIGHT NOW, but all I hear is crickets. <saddest sigh ever>

Disgusting.

Disgusting. I think it's possible that all three egos involved will keep that committee constantly in turmoil, tho. 🤞
