There was a protest in Fairhaven today, but instead of doing that, I took part in the "Town-Wide Cleanup" for Earth Day. I got two big bags of trash, a couple of cardboard boxes, and a large piece of plastic something or other. And if I picked up one Fireball nip bottle, I picked up 50. Gross!

If you accept that non-citizens have no right to due process, you are accepting that citizens have no right to due process. All the government has to do is claim that you are not a citizen; without due process you have no chance to prove the contrary.

They're going to kill Libby and all your other library book reading apps, programs funded by Congress which the administration (and certainly not Elon or his teen Nazi psychopath goons) has no power to shut down. Maybe a day to call all your reps again and to demand action

🚨NEW🚨: Donald Trump is attempting to strip away federal support for libraries. We will NOT let that happen. Last night the President signed an order to gut the Institute of Museum & Library Services. But together, we know we can show up & defeat it. Full EO: www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

Repost if you support Canada, and will buy Canadian goods. As an American, I will support my Canadian friends.

We went bird watching today and flicks of Canada geese flew overhead calling out,” Fuck Trump! We’re going back to Canada!”

I’m re-re-reading Octavia Butler’s “Parable of the Sower’ and dear God was she prescient!
