We will meet their bullets and their fear with love for our neighbor. We are the full box of paints and we will paint this country with all our colors. I truly believe we will!

The assault on trans youth healthcare is misguided and damaging to an already vulnerable population. This documentary is important to watch.

In what universe is demanding $250 Million Tax payer money from the Justice Department of your own administration not a breach of the emoluments clause of the Constitution?

Those who label sincerity β€œcringe” need to find the courage to believe in something. I reject all attempts to tear down my belief in fundamental freedoms and the rule of law.

Stand up! Rise up! Step out of the darkness of the darkness, singing β€œWe the People …”

Thank you, all you frogs out there!

Is he 4’10” or 5’10”? It may be a matter of little consequence, but desperate times call for desperate measures. Release the tape. We can handle the truth!

Sometimes a book finds you just when you need to be found. β€œDaring Greatly” by BrenΓ© Brown is just such a book. I encourage you to read it!

Transgender Americans are seeing a wave of hate unleashed by Charlie Kirk’s killing | Erin Reed In the aftermath of Kirk’s death, the far-right and Trump administration have turned up attacks on transgender people

Everyone’s entitled to equal protection and to pursue their own happiness under the law. Don’t give into hate or discrimination. Defend Constitutional protections! Do not buy into the Right’s anti-trans narrative. It’s un-American and we are better than that!

1000% The right wants things just the way they were. Their strategy of attacking language has always been their MO and always will be.

Yeah. Behind it all is protecting investments and their own little or not so little nut. Principles are no match for protecting your own piece of the pie. Real change would upset too many apple carts.

STAGGERING: This new study of 133 countries is the first to estimate the impact of all USAID’s work. In 2 decades, it has saved *92M* lives. Current cuts, if not reversed, are forecast to cost up to *14M* lives thru 2030. www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...

As July 4th passes, I do feel shame we allowed the corrupt purchase within the halls of power. I also feel pride for our nation of immigrants, a fiercely independent, fair dealing people. Many moments make our history, with glimmers of greatness. God grant we rise and bend the future toward justice!

We will use their horrific agenda to turn voters against them by the millions in the midterms. And yes, there will be midterms. Don’t even think about voicing defeatism and doing their work for them.

America is beautiful, contradictory, unfinished. I am proud of our country even as we constantly strive to make it better, to protect and deepen our democracy, to fulfill its promise for each and every person who calls it home.

Happy Independence Day. No Kings in America.

You haven’t let them starve yet. And there is always one hard ass (usually mom based on my small sample set) and one also ran.

I’m reading a guidebook that has a table of useful French words and phrases for navigating Paris. β€œRendez-moi mon porte-monnaie!”made this short list. β€œGive me back my wallet!” whereas β€œWhere is the nearest bathroom?” is conspicuously absent.

If only we had an administration that cared about actual people and tried to solve their real problems, instead of undermining science, education and everything that makes America great and treating one of the once most respected and important responsibilities in the world as a reality tv show.

A wrist watch is also just cool and a pervasive expression of individuality available across gender and economic divides. It is also, sadly a marker of those divides.

Closing old browser tabs on my iPhone is almost as satisfying as popping bubble wrap bubbles.

β€œBuilding Harlequin’s Moon” by Brenda Cooper and Larry Niven is a damned fine novel! Epic in scope, well-drawn, compelling characters and a tremendous climax. I highly recommend reading it!

This is the time for poets, bards and singers! This is the time to shout! We are in a life and death struggle of ideas! What you believe is important. What you know will carry you forward through this dark time! You are important and what you want matters more than what those in power want of you.

Few people retain empathy through uncomfortable truths that challenge their assumptions. It is very difficult to perceive another human as part of your tribe when their life, appearance, their very existence is alien to yours. If we are to survive, we must stretch ourselves.
