live your life
so that if people quote you
after your death
it is not viewed
as a hate crime.

A two-panel meme. Top panel: Text reads, "Me: *decides to not kill the spider in my room* The spider next morning with 2 mosquitoes in its web:" overlaid on a close-up photo of a spider web containing two trapped mosquitoes. Bottom panel: A dimly lit image of a grinning man (from the movie "The Dark Knight") with wide eyes and an evil smile, looking triumphant as if plotting revenge.

My sisters and I with friends from the block routinely trespassed into a nearby lemon grove to play, including using a tire swing to swing over the edge of a cliff and back. We all made it home safe.

"They're not interested in governing, they're interested in destroying.”
YouTube video by Maryland Democratic Party "They're not interested in governing, they're interested in destroying.”

Governor Wes Moore lays it out - Trump is not interested in governing.

He lies to stoke fear, xenophobia, and demonize Latinos and other immigrants.

Then he weaponizes ICE and has Kristi Noem pose for pictures in front of people who were kidnapped & trafficked.

What does China offer that the United States doesn't?
Small hands, a massive, seasonal work force and millions of engineers.
Young Chinese women have small fingers, and that has made them a valuable contributor to iPhone production because they are more nimble at installing screws and other miniature parts in the small device, supply chain experts said. In a recent analysis the company did to explore the feasibility of moving production to the United States, the company determined that it couldn't find people with those skills in the United States, said two people familiar with the analysis who spoke on the condition of anonymity.
China has millions of people who migrate around the country to work in factories as Apple revs up production around a new iPhone. They often work from the summer until Chinese New Year, when production slows down, so Apple's suppliers don't have to pay them for a full year of work. They live in dormitories connected to factories

Why do Republicans only talk about fiscal responsibility when it’s about paying for Medicaid and SNAP which helps regular Americans, but not when it’s about giving giant tax breaks to corporations?

Seriously hypocritical.

This is a shockingly mistaken understanding of due process by Stephen Miller. It is likely this misunderstanding that is informing the President’s misunderstanding.

I could be wrong about this but I really think most Americans do not want to be forced to β€œdo their own research” about food & drug & product safety and would rather that the government agencies that have been sorting that all out for them for decades not be obliterated in the name of β€œefficiency.”

Pritzker: Time to stop wondering if you can trust the nuclear codes to people who don’t know how to organize a group chat. It’s time to stop ignoring the hypocrisy in wearing a big gold cross while announcing the defunding of children’s cancer research…

A screenshot of a paragraph in this story that reads. 

"β€œCyclists” are not a unique species of urban resident; they are simply people who decide to bike instead of using another mode. (In North America, that usually means driving.) People’s willingness to travel on two wheels largely depends upon infrastructure. Only the hardiest will cycle on fast-moving roads that lack protected bike lanes; slower streets and abundant cycle paths can entice many more people to ride. As bike advocates often note, estimating the demand for an unbuilt bike lane by counting the riders on dangerous roadways is like planning a bridge by estimating the people swimming across a river." 

The last sentence is highlighted.
