When I was in New Hampshire a couple weeks ago, a local bar had printed these out, and also had a QR code for a site where people could report ICE sightings. Normal people trying to be good to one another (Mr. Rogers’ “helpers”) are keeping me sane.

There are only two options here
1- people who live in built up areas subsidizing people in high wildfire risk areas (which to be fair is a combo of rich people and low income rural areas)

Waiting to get on the Staten Island ferry in a blizzard to pick up XC skis, and a woman at the terminal is telling us all about Jesus coming back.
