Here's hoping that the new #ROADHousingAct translates into actual affordable homeownership and not a continuation of the development of $4000/mo luxury apartments, which have sprung up in every imaginable parcel of land (as a way to shore up township budgets) www.banking.senate.gov/imo/media/do...

“The same molecules of oxygen and carbon we breathe today have cycled through ancient seas, primordial ferns, and the lungs of those long gone. In this way, breath connects generations —past, present, and future —in a continuous exchange.“

Breathe - The Measure of Enough

Every inhale signifies participation, every exhale, accountability. Maybe this is the true measure of enough: letting the breath of life circulate freely through all that exists.

Positive News: France has announced its plan to ditch Windows & switch to Linux for government desktops. 🥳 🇫🇷 Not only that, but they have also moved 80, 000 National Health Insurance Fund Employees to open source alternatives replacing U.S owned Big Tech platforms like Microsoft Teams & Zoom.

France says goodbye Windows, hello Linux!

Some students enter higher education having been introduced to peer-reviewed scholarly articles...in high school?!...but are unfamiliar with concepts like "compare /contrast" or "support claims with evidence." So I guess the high school prepared them for college by jumping right over everything else

Related to this K-12 and higher ed relationship is an opaque distinction between the two types of institutions, which are related but should have very clearly differentiated purposes and goals. The purpose of secondary education should be far more expansive than "college readiness."

There is a type you'll meet at parties who loves to profess the superiority of the private sector and incompetence of all government work. But have you ever noticed that as soon as someone is proven incompetent in government they are sent to exile/demoted to the private sector?

A bug in the code of human social biology is that we instinctually defer power to the confident, but confidence doesn't require knowledge, wisdom, or efficacy to operate. It just requires charisma or self-promotion. We frequently defer power to people who know very little and are often ineffective

You are playing Monopoly with ten friends, and one friend owns almost all the property. The other nine are tiring of the game waiting to go bankrupt. Does the game improve if you force player 10 to give each player an extra $200 when they pass Go? Not much...b/c he still owns all the property.

A persistent myth among young adults (and parents) preparing to study at colleges and universities is that choosing a major at age 18 is choosing a career for life. This may be true for pre-professional degrees (like nursing or accounting), but many graduates end up in careers they never anticipated

Fair. I agree with most of the IRA in principle. Two critiques: 1) Dems did a poor job selling it and its benefits to the public; and 2) relies too much on big grant actions rather than direct spending on critical projects.

They don't seek innovative ideas at all. When they get in power, they hire consulting groups and think tanks staffed by the same old names that sell them outdated and overpriced fixes that ultimately fail.

Republicans pretend the problems we face do not exist because they have no solutions. Democrats identify the problems and campaign on them, but once elected, have mostly bad/sloppy fixes that backfire and return Republicans to power. How do we elect Democrats with SMART solutions to problems?

In three years there will be a new POTUS and we can begin to repair much of the damage wrought, but America's reputation will be permanently tarnished for generations to come.

I am pleased to announce that I have commandeered my neighbor's home. This home will be sold at its Market Price, and that money will be controlled by me, to ensure it is used to benefit my neighbor and me! Thank you for your attention to this matter!

I spent many beautiful summers in trades work in rain and sun: erecting fences, mixing concrete, tarring roofs, laying patios, hanging sheetrock, painting. The soundtrack on most of those days was always Pierre Robert on #WMMR #pierrerobert. Rest in peace.

Just read the article so thank you for sharing! My interpretation of the argument is not that the Liberals should "appeal to popular prejudices" It's that liberals are losing ground to MAGA because they are exclusionary rather than inclusionary. Dems must be more inclusive w/o appealing to prejudice

I don't truly know what I "think" until I have a chance to research and write about it. I write to think, to share what I think, and to participate in those prickly dialectical tensions. #WHYIWrite #WHYIWriteWCU
