Maybe corny but it was helpful for me to hear Henry Rollins saying "this is not time to be dismayed, this is punk rock time, this is what Joe Strummer trained you for... You can be thunderous in your own life, to the eight people around you. That rubs off... Goodness is viral"

I don't know.. I can't give up talking about my experience with Starbucks because it really felt so dehumanizing. The clerk at the register had, from what I perceived, such a condescending attitude. Like, how dare I tell her hadn't bought something there.

Citing recent policy reversal, Starbucks just denied my request to use their bathroom because I was not a paying customer. Even though I stated I was disabled with a disability placard. Even though I just used my Starbucks reward card down the road when I disembarked from our cruise.

“To love a country, as to love a person, is to love a flawed & exquisite creation, to see what is best in it, to be angry when it is not what it could be, precisely because you have seen glimmers of its greatness.” ✨Pete Buttigieg Pete, I toast you w/ this #CupOfJoe. Thank you for you.

A farm worker sent us this pic from where they are harvesting carrots in Santa Maria. It's hard difficult work. We're on our knees most of the time on the cold damp soil. In addition, I don't live near the field and I have to drive an hour to work. #WeFeedYou

There have been several references to the French Revolution lately and I thought this was a good introduction video about Anarchism. #ExPat #TikTokBan #France #1789 youtu.be/5Ocv71Nt-Lo?...

A bit off topic but I wanted to tell you.. I'm 54 & finally graduating this Spring with my AA in Arts/Humanities, a cert for web design & completed studies for transfer to a CSU. It's never to late to go back to school and I believe in you. #GenX #RageAgainstTheMachine
