I will show up for 15 minutes every week whether anyone else shows or not. Experienced activists are welcome as are the new, confused, very young, very old, disabled, timid, socially unskilled, uneducated, and those who are sure they are completely useless.

Starting in February I'm going to start holding "What Can I Do?" virtual meetings at the same time every week (probably Saturday mornings).
Their purpose will be to share ideas of how to get involved in our communities in nonviolent but effective ways to help make things better.

Your yearly reminder to have the biggest most expensive presents come from you, not Santa.
1. You can help your kids help preserve the magic for other kids who didn't get as much.
2. Santa ain't the one who dealt with that jerk at work all year.

It’s a good episode, and I’m gonna listen to it again today and be sad about Rob Reiner.

The "Penrose Effect" seems to be a real thing - hypothesised in the 1930s and re-tested in the last decade or so:
