Had to check out the Cultural Trail at Capitol - it's been torn up but navigable, I ride it all the time. Suddenly, now a dead end with no detour signs, which dumps a main trail in the city into the middle of a major intersection with no explanation of what to do. And somebody already died for it.

Having watched the video of the crash, it is obvious that drivers are f’n idiots. And so is anyone who screachingly defends them. The monon at 46th is clearly indicated. I went past this same intersection and slowed to a near stop to look…would have easily seen the child. EASILY.

I canvassed last night and with the rain I only hit 50 doors. That said, I had a lot of great conversations. Folks who would have normally talked through the door invited me in and we chatted. I even convinced a Republican to pull a Dem next week.

Last year my friend Deidre asked me for some help in getting a grant. I asked her what she needed — she had most of it but I called/messaged/harassed 7 or 8 activist friends like Will to help her with the final details. My involvement was knowing experts. Today is the execution of this grant.

Great day with some incredible students from Harshman MS slowing down drivers in front of their school- murals, delineators, and most importantly, water barriers to help enforce this crash diet on East 10th Street! Thanks to @clifmars.com for making sure we all stayed safe by flagging traffic!

I’ll be voting for Clif in IN 46 because he’s a principled leader and all around good guy with the right team behind him etc etc but ALSO because if he finally gets a real job maybe he will stop leading lame ass bike parties.

AES just canceled tonight’s meeting to avoid answering for the BlackRock buyout. They’re claiming "security threats"—it’s a lie to avoid the public. I’ve been warning you about the AES-BlackRock-Data Center connection for a year. This deal is a 50% rate hike, plain and simple.

I’m running for State Senate because our communities deserve leadership that listens, shows up, and governs with care. This campaign is focused on strong public schools, accessible healthcare, affordable housing, and an economy that works for working families. secure.actblue.com/donate/india...
I’m running for State Senate because our communities deserve leadership that listens, shows up, and governs with care. This campaign is focused on strong public schools, accessible healthcare, affordable housing, and an economy that works for working families.

Your contribution helps build a people-powered campaign grounded in community and accountability. With your support, we can organize early, reach neighbors across District 46, and create real change together.

To kickoff my campaign, I’m hosting a launch party at Centerpoint Brewing featuring Indy local band “Premium Blend”. Tickets are offered on a sliding scale, every amount receives the same experience. Please give what you are able to. 

In addition to launching the campaign, we will be accepting donations to benefit Big Homie Foundation. Please bring toiletries, clothes, and/or grocery gift cards to do our part to help continue Sunday Serve. 

Your time. Your oven. Your funds.
That’s how this work continues.

Come celebrate. Come connect. Come be part of something rooted in care, dignity, and action.

Indiana SB182 isn’t about protecting kids. It isn’t about fairness. It isn’t about “keeping politics out of things.” It’s about denying identity. It’s about targeting people with the least power. clifmars.com/sb182/

Shoveling snow is easier than shoveling grief. A friend reminded me today: if you don’t know what to do, shovel your neighbor’s sidewalk. The last two weeks have been hard. Crisis makes people freeze. I’m going to keep fighting for my neighborhood while remembering Humanity doesn’t stop at borders.

I’m running for Indiana State Senate in District 46. This is work I’ve already been doing — now I’m asking voters to trust me to do it as their senator. More Info: clifmars.com Donate to the campaign at: secure.actblue.com/donate/clif4indiana
WHY SENATE. WHY NOW.

Because I’ve spent years watching peopledo everything rightand still get ignored.

Because I work inside broken systems by dayand see exactly who they fail.

Because at night, I help keep people alivewhen the state decides caring costs too much.

Because I’ve watched neighbors save neighborswhile politicians stall, hedge, and protect themselves.

Because “later” isn’t patience.It’s a death sentence too many families know.

I’m running because District 46 deserves a senatorwho shows up, and who answers to people — not special interests.

This is the moment.This is the work.Let’s do it together.

Stand with your neighbors.
Build something better.

Redd was slated to host at the Kennedy Center. This no longer exists because of fuckos like Grenell. He is now suing Redd for not paying a free concert in a nonexistent venue. I hope the left gofunds Redd and encouraged others to stop capitulating to Nazis.

I took this little alien to the protest at the State House today. We didn’t get into any yelling matches…there was an insane person doing that anyways…but he did see why we fight. Because of work — students come first in all instances — we didn’t get there until after the crowds have gone home.
