“We were raising our son to believe that no matter where you come from or what you look like, all of us deserve compassion and kindness,” said her widow, Becca Good.

"On Wednesday, January 7th, we stopped to support our neighbors. We had whistles. They had guns.”
"Had the admin. not deployed taxpayer-funded officers into the state for political reasons, there’s plenty of reason to believe that Renee Nicole Good – poet, mother, and treasured neighbor in her Minneapolis community – might still be alive today."

"The Minneapolis community – and Americans of conscience everywhere – are mourning the horrific killing of Renee Nicole Good," write @tusk81.bsky.social and @yunao08.bsky.social.

A poet, mother, wife, and neighbor who should still be alive today.

Can’t believe the whole country has to suffer through the return of Dickensian childhood diseases because the worst, most ignorant attention-demanders decided other people’s expertise makes them feel bad

Friends... help me help a sad older lady. I will help transport anywhere. Belly is a sweet 10 y/o who belonged to a friend's uncle who died three weeks ago. She is affectionate and loves a walk, but is ready to come home after 1 mile. No cats but is fine with other dogs and loving humans. Dm me!

November is Adopt a Senior Dog Month. And if you want a two-fer, adopt a senior pitbull. Fastest way to lift your mood in the current hellscape. #pitbull #adopt #endBSL

Charities receive billions in bequests every year, and many donors who include nonprofits in their wills also give generously throughout their lifetimes. Planned-giving experts share advice on how to build a legacy society that keeps these valuable donors giving.

IFPTE Local 29 is calling on Congress, local government officials, stakeholders, and the public to take immediate action to stop the closure of the NASA Goddard Visitor Center - a decision that would inflict irreparable harm on the community, the regional economy, and NASA’s public mission. #NASA

This is Mama. She has been waiting for a home for years. She's a great dog, she just needs to be an only dog. She's going downhill after so long without a family. Can someone be her hero? East coast. I will pay the adoption fee and transport her for an approved adopter.

This is genuinely a big part of my campaign’s structure.

I thought about how many clinics could be funded, how many food banks could be stocked with $1 billion.

So we’re using our resources to reach voters through back to school drives and park cleanups and our mutual aid work.
I see what Kat is doing with her campaign and i’m thrilled to see a better approach to what campaigning means

and then i remember Kamala spent $1 BILLION in 100 days and we’re all worse off as a result
This Sunday, we’re hosting a back to school drive in Evanston with 500 free backpacks, all-day free haircuts, and free food by two of the best restaurants in Evanston!

Drop by the Fleetwood-Jourdain Center this Sunday afternoon to start the school year with everything you need!

Imagine if "combating homelessness" meant housing people, not brutalizing and disappearing them.

Adopt a senior dog. While you don't get as much time with them, every day is worth it. (Salsa, age 10, adopted last fall after 3 years in a shelter.) ❤️

Andry Hernández Romero, the innocent make-up artist imprisoned without trial for 4 months in El Salvador by the Trump admin, is FREE.

He was wrongfully accused of being a gang member because of his “mom” and “dad” tattoos, and illegally sent to El Salvador without due process.

Our inability to say - explicitly - that the right wing strategy of vilifying whomever they deem other, stoking status threat and glorifying guns led to the murder of an extraordinary public servant and effective leader simply aids the right's aims.
