48 hrs to go! Yall, we gotta get Aftyn Behn over the finish line on Tuesday. She’s doing the hard work of freedom with her run for District 7–she’s the first domino toward a flip of Congress. Donate, phone bank! @aftynbehn.bsky.social

Heartbreaking news out of Charlotte about the absolutely grotesque behavior by out of control federal agents.
Here’s a story for every national news outlet:
In N.C., churchgoers are literally running into the woods as federal agents descend on the property.
“Inside the church, women and children sobbed as they wondered whether their loved ones had been taken.”

A Chorus Line opened on Broadway 50 years ago today. The show is often celebrated as a love letter to dancers—a tribute to the unsung heroes of musical theater. But the full story is messier. 🧵

The ‘dog days’ of summer get their name due to their association with the Dog Star, Sirius, found in the constellation Canis Major.
The first visible rising of Sirius occurs during the hot stretch from early July to early September.
Woof.

I keep thinking about the ancient concept of hospitality, what it means to invite people into your house. The White House is our nation’s house; it doesn’t belong to anybody but the American people. To see it abused yesterday is such an insult to all Americans. That’s not how we welcome an ally.

Massive burst of energy for knitting, it’s like I invented it or something. When’s the last time I woke up and knit in my PJs? Maybe knitting will save us all. Or at least set us up with a pile of handknits, right?
