Progressive, anti-fascist, contemplative, and fiercely fighting for my grandsons' future lives in a way I never knew I had.

Last week I met a young man cashiering in the grocery check-out line. We had a brief conversation about my cilantro, and genetics (whether you love it or hate it). He then said, "Well, I'm just a white guy, so I miss out on alot." Resentment. I can't stop thinking about him.

I'm white as fuck also, and have not shown up in the way my nieces and nephews needed, but I'm glad they've got others to call Aunt and Uncle.

While I lament what's happening in our world, this is good and makes me believe in the abundance of good souls in our world.

Tonight, I crack my window open, like always. So I can hear the loons calling when I wake up at the usual 3am. It makes me believe in the beauty of our world, despite everything. And despite how cold it will be in here in the morning.

MAINERS: VOTE "NO" ON Q#1 !! As Democracy Docket explains, this referendum is about voter suppression, NOT election integrity. E.g. It would permit only ONE ballot drop box per community, no matter the size. #MEpolitics

Was literally talking about this just this morning with a good friend. I was so inspired, heartened by the mass turn-out at NoKings rallies. And all the good energy. I'm headed to local non-profit tomorrow to see about volunteering.

I wrote down some notes on privatization and the transfer of wealth. Tell the MAGA in your lives that they’re subsidizing billionaires by voting for republicans.

Sure. Appoint a racist white nationalist to run US Institute of Peace. A fucking abomination. Maybe not a bad thing that USIP was zeroed out in the rescission bill. www.politico.com/news/2025/07...
