I like this song.
It’s called First Song by Charlie Haden. Something about it is very cathartic since my mother died a few weeks back. Music is so healing for me. It’s like therapy. Before my mom died in hospice she mentioned I should do whatever makes me happy to celebrate her life. This is it.

August gigs!

Walz: "It's so obscene that he would put a mock classroom -- we all know he's never been in one. He wouldn't last for a minute. He's surrounded by people who know nothing about education. They want to make this about bureaucracy and cutting. This is about children."

AOC: Fox News and the right-wing would have you believe that these American values are something out of The Communist Manifesto. But let me tell you Fox News, I don’t believe in healthcare, labor, and human rights because I’m a Marxist.. I believe it because I was a waitress.

Walz: "I think we have to assume the very worst in everything this administration does, and we need to prepare for it."

A leading pediatrician was already worried about the future of vaccines. Then RFK Jr. came along In a new book, pediatric infectious disease specialist Dr. Adam Ratner details the history of measles, a virus that’s often a bellwether for public health disasters.

"The best and the worst thing about vaccination is that it 'makes nothing happen.'

A child successfully inoculated against measles doesn’t fall sick with that condition, doesn’t miss school, doesn’t go to the hospital. They don’t suffer life-changing complications. They don’t die prematurely."
