This sounded very melodious until the Steller’s Jays arrived (3) and started squawking! My Bird of the Day is just visiting, a migrant to this cloud forest on a hill in San Francisco.

It’s been like this for a week here in San Francisco. Our indoor air has a PM2.5 of 6, which is low but is usually zero due to our filtered electric heat pump system & new replacement windows. It’s bad outside. Someone’s nearby outside monitor’s at 68, but Purple Air thinks it’s much worse. So do I.

Kamala's Cornbread Dressing - my contribution for tomorrow's Thanksgiving dinner at our cousin's house. That's why I needed the fresh herbs. See reply for recipe!
Wish she could have been our President 😭

Trump admin has fired 12 judges in San Francisco’s immigration court this year. They don’t want *any* immigration, only deportations. ICE grabs people and disappears them when they show up for their hearings. Appalling and unacceptable!

Tears flowed in S.F. courtroom as immigration judge was fired mid-hearing
The San Francisco judge said the “dismantling” of the immigration court was preceded by “inhumane” workloads and trauma-filled workdays.

Dolores Huerta lifts up a progressive challenger in CA-22! We need to flip this seat from red to blue, and not with a corporate Dem who takes oil & gas money. Randy Villegas @villegas4congress.bsky.social is the primary challenger who will represent his majority-Latino district with integrity.

Here is the California Central Valley candidate I’ll be supporting for Congress in 2026! Take a look! He is the real thing.
Eight Democratic Senators betrayed the American people today and voted with Republicans to increase the cost of healthcare for millions of Americans.
As long as I'm breathing, I'll fight for the Central Valley like our lives depend on it.
Because here, they do.

Sunday mid-day walk in San Francisco. A few wisps of fog from the overnight blanket remain around Sutro Tower on Twin Peaks. Lots of songbirds

“Knowing that protests are growing in size, reach, and durability creates what researchers call ‘social proof.’ To stop sitting on the fence, we need to know that others are with us. […] providing each other with social proof can foster change.”

The Golden Age of Protest Is Now
Collective action in the U.S. is surging. Recognizing our shared momentum may be key to saving democracy.
