A win🌟. "Transgender Representatives Zooey Zephyr and SJ Howell gave impassioned speeches—this time, they broke through. In a stunning turn, 29 Republicans defected, killing both bills. One Republican even took the floor to deliver a scathing rebuke of the bill’s sponsor." bit.ly/41xUB7Z

Can we please stop pretending to be surprised by the lying? If that’s all you’ve got, you haven’t been paying attention.

If DOGE is a federal agency, it can’t shield its records from the public. If it’s not an agency, then its tens of millions of dollars in funding weren’t legally allocated and should be returned, some contend.

“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

I'm struck by the near-total failure of leadership across civil society, in a country that fetishizes the concept. Whole sections of leadership books at every bookstore. Named, endowed "leadership" institutes and curricula across higher ed. Awards and special recognition for "leaders." AND YET

If you've managed to remain safe from the LA fires but have lost power and are using a portable generator, remember to keep it outdoors and make sure your carbon monoxide (CO) alarms are working. 1 generator can produce as much CO as hundreds of cars and CO can kill in minutes.

Reminder - it's easy to judge a situation from afar. You have to bring the safety home. How much do you know about your fire department? Do you know its average response time? Its capacity for responding to a natural disaster? Does your local gov have a plan for that kind of response? Is it public?
