Bend, don't break. No time for explanations. Texpat in New England. Books, vinyl, gardens, food, beer, movies, thrift, kids of all ages (furry ones, too). Living my 2nd 1/2 as loud as my 1st. Justice for all! Little Bukowski, little less self destruction.

It's a way to fracture that lifeline. They have shown on repeat they won't do anything about guns. In TX, that's a real detriment to kids.

Weโll never have true justice for George Floyd.
True justice would be George Floyd alive today.
We owe it to George, his family, and everyone murdered by law enforcement to continue building a more just America where everyone can thrive & live free from fear.
Frost: Tonight the people stealing are not folks with tattoos and hoodies but people wearing suits and ties and congressional pins sitting in the capitol now, not in some alley wrapped in darkness but the United States congress wrapped in the flag. It is disgusting and we will never forget this.
