The revolution won't be televised, And certainly not streamed. Stop being polarized. Start getting free. Make them feel our outrage and collective scream! www.resistandunsubscribe.com @profgalloway.com Buh-byeee #paramountplus #DontStreamFascism #ResistAndUnsubscribe #ICEout #FuckFascism

I come into the peace of wild things who do not tax their lives with forethought of grief. I come into the presence of still water. And I feel above me the day-blind stars waiting with their light. For a time I rest in the grace of the world, and am free. onbeing.org/poetry/the-p... #WendellBerry

A great antidote for feelings of helplessness at what’s happening to our country is to get back out there and support the policies and people who will help change things! Was proud to support @sarahforiowa.bsky.social for Congress today, and to meet Iowans of all types! #Vote #VoteEconomy #VoteBlue

Each month, our family donates to an org that supports our values. As the #Iowa #gop continues to attack Iowa public schools, it’s a great time to support the #ByDegreesFoundation. #publicschools #education www.bydegreesfoundation.org

Grateful and inspired by @mercurystardust.bsky.social today at a #CapitalCityPride event. Such an authentic, honest, brave, and funny soul. Thanks for being a voice saying it’s ok to not innately know what to do in home repair (or life).

One thing I do to stay positive in these unprecedented & dangerous times is to donate to organizations that support my values. This month I chose the @ppfa.org #SusanKnappHealthCenter and @ppadvocatesia Let’s do everything we can to support #WomensHealth, particularly in Iowa #BansOffOurBodies

“Small Comfort” It feels good, to be in in the ruse, but New Americans think his approach, abuse toward our allies is working and doesn’t stink. And until media of all stripes has the guts to accuse him of gross incompetence, we are fucked. sublimedevolution.com/2025/02/12/s... #poetry

Something I did in 2017 was begin making a monthly donation to a different organization in my community that was fighting for my values. I’m doing it again this year, and this month, I choose One Iowa: oneiowa.org
