I am pivoting this website from helping to get Harris elected to advocating to protect Democracy. Do you know of good existing orgs that are fighting the good fight? What should I include?
I just created and published this website. Hopefully it inspires some people in the US to take action. Feedback welcome, but I don’t want to spend too much time and let perfect be the enemy of done. Link in the comments. We have 100 days! Let's gett'r done.

My home town! Lloyd is one cool dude. Glad to know he’s still a bad-ass.
Lloyd Kahn trail runs, skate boards, has fitness equipment throughout his house, and keeps up a half acre property in rural Marin County.

He is also 90 years old.

You can be inspired by this remarkable elder here (gift)
He’s 90. He’s still skateboarding. Advice on aging from Lloyd Kahn
Our reporter saw a 90-year-old competing in the grueling Dipsea trail race earlier this year, and had questions. This Bay Area super-ager has answers … and took us skateboarding.

196 million people shop over Thanksgiving weekend.

If even just a fraction of us refuse to bankroll companies enabling harm, the message will be impossible to ignore. Other companies will think twice before they cave.

Skip Target, Amazon, and Home Depot.

Protect your community.

Lots of people sharing this clip because it's funny and cathartic but I also genuinely believe it's important.

We have to win the narrative battle between "I live in a corrupt society and that's just how it is" and "I live in a corrupt society and we are going to defeat and humiliate these ghouls."

Substack has an antiscience health disinformation problem.

MAD recognizes the importance (& influence) of media ownership – which is why we are sounding warnings about Substack.

Substack creators and Substack audiences are supporting a platform that profits off of promoting dangerous antiscience content – at the expense of public health.

Real wealth is not:

- Expensive clothes
- Private jets
- Big yachts

Real wealth is:

- Having dinner with your family each night
- Slow mornings that start without an alarm
- Building memories with the people you love

Nearly 20% of retail revenue drops this weekend. If we want to be heard, this is the moment. Skip Target, Amazon, and Home Depot. Shop small, shop local, reconnect with community.

Small acts add up to real pressure.

Read this. A real American.
I swore an oath to the Constitution in 1986. I've upheld it through 25 years of service and every day since I retired.

If Trump's trying to intimidate me, it won’t work. I’ve given too much to our country to be silenced by bullies who care more about power than the Constitution.

In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

In plain terms, the United States aligned itself with Russia against Ukraine and NATO. By transmitting Moscow’s surrender terms unedited and pressuring Kyiv to accept them, the Trump Regime effectively sided with Russia in the war and attempted to force Ukraine’s capitulation. It is betrayal.
Russia drafted a 28 point surrender plan, handed it to the Trump team, and the regime delivered it to Kyiv unedited, demanding Zelensky sign it by Thanksgiving or lose all US support. Trump and Vance then promoted the plan exactly as Russia wrote it, verbatim, on TV, online, and in person.
