My first thought was that the boy symbolized a young Benito. A nod to roots, dreams, possibility. You know, classic β€œAmerican” stuff.

We need to accept aging and dying as mortality and reality. And then move on to figure out our precious time here.

Rep. Neguse shook my hand during a protest earlier this year in downtown Boulder. He was walking right down the edge of Broadway between cars and the sidewalk, thanking us all for coming out to resist. Sir, you have my vote and my gratitude for your tireless service.

From wildfire warnings to flood forecasts, NCAR's research impacts everyone in America.

President Trump's attempt to dismantle it for political vengeance is beyond reckless.

We will fight against this dangerous scheme every step of the way.

Extraordinary courage from Ahmed al Ahmed, a Muslim, 43-year-old father of two, who bravely risked his life to save his neighbors celebrating Hanukkah.

Praying for his full & speedy recovery.

And so deeply inspired by his example.

It’s the Feds making Portland look like a war zoneβ€” not the protesters.

And honestly, these protesters are brilliant. They’re flipping the whole authoritarian cosplay on its ass!

Broadcasters told not to air any booing of Donald Trump at US Open men’s final US Open broadcasters have been asked not to show any negative crowd reactions to Donald Trump at Sunday’s men’s final

To all those attending the US Open, you know what to do.

Boo loudly, record footage, and share it EVERYWHERE.

Is that a drain pan under that spendy tactical armored vehicle at DC Union Station? Really!?! Like the military isn't well funded enough to fix a leaky oil pan gasket?

Like, this happened today.
I don't know what to do with it.

I can't push it aside. I can't affect it. I can't accept it. I can't ignore it. I can't undo it. And there are a thousand things like this every week now.

Deep breaths.
