Still hoping for a better world. I believe in making the world a better place, one small action at a time, and I love connecting with people who share that outlook.

As proof of his genius, he offers a story in which he realized that if they added 1 to 1775 it would give them the number 1776. No, I'm being completely serious. And his mouthbreathing crowd applauds that basic math like the man split the atom.

The son of the man shot and killed by ICE: I am Ronaldo Salgado, the oldest son of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo. He should've been picking up the last of his guys before heading to finish up construction. Unbeknownst to all of us, my dad had been shot inside his van by ICE agents in unmarked cars.

My Mom. A coal (and gold) miners daughter. Founder of Grandmothers Against Genocide. On New Years she would let 70 punk kids in the tiny basement of her townhouse and we could dance all night long. Those still sitting around the kitchen table at 8 in the morning had to go to Mass. That's my Mom.

Friedrich Nietzsche, that jovial Saxon, wrote in 1886: "Madness is rare in individuals, but the rule in groups, parties, nations, and epochs." We must give Nietzsche credit for the fact that Donald Trump wasn't born until 60 years later; the philosopher and the current US president never met.
