Stop asking billionaires questions, recording their answers and sharing their uninformed and/or racist and/or otherwise bigoted and nonsense ideas as journalism. Itβs ridiculous. They are the most boring people. Oh wah I am a white man who has more money than I can spend and Iβm so mad about it!
A State Department employee shared with PBS News an image from inside the department. The image includes a piece of paper taped to a mirror with the words, "Colleagues, if you remain: RESIST FASCISM. Remember the oath you vowed to uphold."

One of the best among usβ¦. If youβre looking for an example of how to be in the world, you should look no further than Joanna Macy. Sheβs a true human.
May we all aspire to her level of clarity and courage. I have no doubt the ancestors have cleared a comfy spot to welcome her!
Highly recommend!!!
A contender for the most βShow me your budget and Iβll tell you who you areβ bills in modern history.
An act of breathtaking moral monstrosity and nearly unprecedented self-sabotage for the country.
New York Times: Senate Republicans Reprise Push to Pay for Tax Cuts by Slashing Food Stamps
How grotesque.
The Republican reconciliation bill cuts nutrition programs for hungry kids in order to give tax breaks to billionaires.
Good luck to my Republican colleagues in explaining the morality of that to their constituents.

Wow! That is fascinating! It is SO bad. Iβm speechless.
Congratulations to the 13 brave women who risked their careers and reputations to stand up to Cuomoβs sexual predation

In Bell, CA an entire community stood up against ICE, including the local police and the fire dept. The fire truck appears to not allow ICE vehicles to move forward nor remain and pushes forward to escort them out. A police car also helped with escorting. /
The plunder of our seas by industrial fishing is a monstrosity in which almost everyone unwittingly collaborates. For decades this truth has been deliberately hidden from us. Now at last the consensus is cracking.

Frolic goes up this weekend! Frolic is a collaboration between myself and the women in my home Town of Gillams. We held a series of conversations last summer and since then Iβve done a series of interviews one on one with women and girls in town. The results of this will be installed in the museum.
I do wonder what it costs financially to have an army occupying Los Angeles and why I keep being told the government doesn't have enough money to pay for public schools to buy supplies for their teachers
Iβd love to send you some yarn! Also, I have another hat that I have been meaning to ask you if you want it. Itβs a slouchy hat with some handspun and some machine made yarn
Some more recent handspun skeins, using up my fleece stash. Mostly Shetland. The chunky one is BFL/silk. #knitsky #spinsky #handspun
On International Womenβs Day, an 82-year-old alchemical vulva boarded the London Tube to protest in front of parliament. Her name is Growler, and she is portrayed by Irish artist-activist Dee Mulrooney wearing flowing red and pink robes and hoods.
Eve was the original Jinker. #artsky
Alpaca/Shetland (50/50) handspun. Approximately 425m trying to spin up my sizeable fleece stash. #spinsky #handspun #knitsky
Really says a lot about Republicans that they blocked their own budget bill because it didnβt harm enough people.
Would You Call Me Eve? #jinker
