Democrat, fervent but terrible gardener, occasional baker, apparent klutz, professional viola player. I read Michelle Obama's Becoming and took from it that hope is a moral imperative. I grapple daily to maintain hope for our world--don't give up!

Everything absurd starts as a joke until the consequences aren’t funny anymore.

Dehumanization always starts small — a laugh, a meme, a mock of someone you don’t agree with or like the looks of. But that’s how empathy erodes. We can do better than this.
Ah, the halcyon days of the threat of rates merely doubling...
I'm planning to keep showing up until I get paid.

Prime example of white privilege in plain sight.

Black kids get called adults to justify blame, while white adults get called “kids” to excuse their hate. They’re not boys and girls, they’re grown-ass men and women, and the receipts are in writing.

The government shut down on October 1st.

House Republicans have not held a single vote since September 19th.

And they have extended their vacation and canceled votes for this coming week.
I am too--loved the shorts and travel advice as well in the teaser article.

Good morning and happy Sunday to everyone. Before you buy Girl Scout cookies you should know they support transgender girls and reject donations from anti-transgender organizations, so make sure you order extra boxes of the new rocky road ice cream-inspired Exploremores.

Q: Do you feel Israel was justified with striking when it did?

TRUMP: Striking where?

Q: In Gaza. Today. And overnight.

TRUMP: I'd have to get back to you on that

Trump justified the killings calling unknown people terrorists and narco-traffickers. When two “terrorists” survive, they are released. Something is wrong here!

Secretary Rubio came before Congress and said nobody was dying as a result of his foreign aid cuts. It's not true. Children are starving and dying because of this administration's cruelty.

If you are confident that a boat near Venezuela is carrying drugs, you stop it and board it. That way, you have evidence.

If you don't really care if a boat near Venezuela is carrying drugs, but you just want to kill people, you blow the boat up. That way, the irrelevant evidence is gone.
You two should be pals if you're not already!

Children are dying because Trump gutted USAID and cut lifesaving foreign aid — even though it took up less than 1% of the U.S. budget.

Meanwhile, he's preparing to dole out $40 billion to prop up Argentina's failing economy, all to help out his authoritarian pal.

Priorities.
