"‘Hope is the Thing with Feathers,’ testifies to the redemptive power of hope and to its fragility ... Every track shimmers with the promises of light and love to illumine the persistent darkness of our lives in these times." — @folkalley.bsky.social on @rhiannongiddens.bsky.social's new album

A good reminder that when you enjoy something someone has done -- a book they wrote, a performance they gave, a speech they made, whatever -- it is incredibly powerful to just reach out and tell them directly.

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

Yes, this is exactly the time to demand Democrats "do something." They can denounce Trump's actions as unconstitutional. They can state that he must be impeached and removed. They can make clear that all involved will be held accountable. These are the core duties of a role they all signed up for.

When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.
