"When anxious, uneasy, and bad thoughts come, I go to the sea, and the sea drowns them out with its great wide sounds, cleanses me with its noise, and imposes a rhythm upon everything in me that is bewildered and confused."

“There are people in the world so hungry, that God cannot appear to them except in the form of bread.” –Mahatma Gandh hfu.org #hfu #hopeforukraine

Mamdani is the gold standard of politicians right now.

Leading by example. Showing what a government for the people by the people is supposed to be.

To echo the sentiments of G.K. Chesterton, fairy tales do not tell children that monsters exist — because they know that already. But rather more importantly, fairy tales tell them (and us) that the monster can be killed. And such stories must never ever go out of fashion.

"The world is indeed full of peril, and in it there are many dark places; but still there is much that is fair, and though in all lands love is now mingled with grief, it grows perhaps the greater."

Thinks too good not to share.

A son of sharecroppers, a Freedom Rider, a moral force in Congress, John Lewis taught us that democracy is not a state, it is an act. When we see injustice, we do not look away. We get in good trouble. And we build bridges despite adversity. Happy Heavenly Birthday, Congressman.

Congress will vote to lower the age to prosecute minors as adults from 16 down to 14 in DC.

Let me get this straight:

Congress wants to prosecute 14 yr. olds as adults, but they don’t want to prosecute adults who sexually abuse 14 year olds?

'God does not need papers': Cardinals spend Ash Wednesday with ICE detainees, their families Cardinal Blase Cupich led a Mass in Chicago, which was attended by relatives of those who have been detained or deported. Cardinal Joseph Tobin celebrated Masses inside an ICE detention center in Newa...

"More than 3,000 people attended the Mass and walked in the procession.

"Families affected by immigration enforcement were among the first to receive ashes from Cupich, in a highly symbolic reversal of the marking and tracking many say defines their daily lives."

This is the reason behind the Trump
administration’s intense desire to ban Talarico content.

If they lose the evangelicals, they lose all their power.

Agree, of course, with Ms Collins. His personal attack on her not smiling isn't just grotesque, it's also completely out of line re: the subject matter. His narcissistic need to have every single interaction being about feeding his ego or he lashes out is exhausting.
