Took the @kcstreetcar.org to work this morning. Smooth ride, clear stops. No stress. Yay KC!

I was so glad to run across your show the other day. Desperate for voices of sanity in politics these days.

Weather app: 70s and partly cloudy. Me: awesome, maybe I can get a nice walk in. Weather app: humidity 88%. Me: 😭

Put up or shut up…

Black Mirror has made it so that if saving my life would involve putting a little magnetic disc on my temple I'd go ahead and take my chances without it.

You are about to
watch the whole
world respect and
use a chosen name.

It's that easy!

Your School House Rock moment......

Saw it tonight and am making plans to see it again because I'm certain there are things I missed.

This is frequently the highlight of my week

Lol I have a bunch of hobbies that I have definitely thrown myself into lately and this drawing is perfect!

We aren’t all farmers…

Political liberalism has a lot of flaws but one of the cool things about it is how it's constructed around the insight that monarchy is a fundamental affront to human dignity 👍

From EARTHSEED: THE BOOKS OF THE LIVING Choose your leaders with wisdom and forethought. To be led by a coward is to be controlled by all that the coward fears. To be led by a fool is to be led by the opportunists who control the fool. To be led by a thief is to offer up your most precious treasures to be stolen. To be led by a liar is to ask to be told lies. To be led by a tyrant is to sell yourself and those you love into slavery.

from “Parable of the Talents” by Octavia Butler

Happy Black History month. A few years ago I converted from Roman Catholic to Episcopal, and shortly after learned about Absalom Jones, an important figure in the Episcopal church www.aecst.org/ajones.htm

We could’ve had this nationwide.

Happy (yes happy) Black History Month! Having an amazing dinner at Urban in Kansas City, and then going to see Ella & Louis, a tribute show to those two amazing singers, at Musical Theater Heritage. Exciting date night!

I'm envisioning a postcard to his constituents with stats on how much Missouri farmers get in USAID funding and the "I fully support DOGE's mission" quote.

Mae Jemison - Wikipedia

"Happy" doesn't seem like the right word and it's tripped me up for a few days. So, I'm having a defiant black history month. I heard NASA is scrubbing mentions of black women from their website, so it's a good time to learn about en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mae_Jem...

In its simplest terms, the apparent demise of #USAID is the result of the world's richest man ending a program that helps millions of poor people. You don't need a Ph.D. in moral theology to see why this is an evil. You can just read Jesus's parables on the rich and the poor.

Oof. The truth is hard to take here. But yeah.

This looks amazing!

What Octavia Butler saw on Feb. 1, 2025, three decades ago Her 1993 novel "Parable Of The Sower" saw a world of climate chaos and racial violence.

Happy Black History Month! If you have not read Parable of the Sower and Parable of the Talents by Octavia Butler, I highly recommend them. www.axios.com/2025/02/01/o...

A screenshot from Missouri independent with the caption Missouri governor vows to take over St. Louis police department

MO has three cities with higher crime rates: StL, KC, and Springfield. KC and StL have Black Mayors and a large Black population. Springfield has a White mayor and a large White population.

The state has taken over the police department in KC and is trying in StL.

No talk of Springfield. Weird.

Just saw three #ICE officers on Carnes and SW Blvd in #kansascity MO. Noon Wednesday Jan 29
