Ukraine is a sovereign nation. Russia invaded Ukraine. Russia is occupying parts of Ukraine. Russia needs to leave Ukraine & return the Ukrainian children it has abducted. Russia must pay reparations. Only Ukrainians decide the future of #Ukraine. That's justice. No justice, no peace.

I remain stunned at nonprofits' lack of use of Reddit. The subreddit for the town where I live, & those for towns close by, have gotten one of the nonprofits I work with volunteers from a large, well-known company we've been trying to entice to volunteer with us for YEARS. Glorious target marketing!

It took almost three years but I am finally moving to the B1 level of study for Spanish, where I was when I stopped my traditional classes when I lived in Germany so long ago. I know Duolingo is not as good as traditional classes but it's been what I have and I am really happy right now!

I just want to point out yet again that all the people claiming a demise of "Western civilization" have not read as much Shakespeare as me. And don't write in English as well as I do. And probably don't speak nor write it as well as most of my immigrant friends.

""We cannot rebuild western civilization, we cannot rebuild the United States or Europe..." They need rebuilding? Was there a war or something? (looks outside) Things look fine. Streets intact. Buses running. Cars driving. Street lights shining. Husband just got milk from the grocery.

Medicaid helps all of us, even if we aren't the recipients. Without it, our healthcare costs will rise. Providers will pass the losses along to patients who have health insurance. We will end up paying more! #DontCutMyMedicaid

#BlackHistoryMonth Day 21. Black Americans have played a vital role in every era of Mammoth Cave's history since its re-discovery by modern humans in the late 1700s. It's worth... DIGGING INTO (see what I did there?). Mammoth Cave is in my old Kentucky home & if you haven't been, sad to be you.

There is a sizable, committed, explicitly anti-democratic element in USA philanthropy, too. Between 2020-2022 $1 billion from philanthropy funded ~150 groups undermining democracy. These aren't fringe elements; they're funded by ~3,500 funders, wielding immense influence #npsky

I know that #BlackHistoryMonth is a USA thing, but for today's celebration, this seems like a PERFECT thing to share. Also, I'm a huge Jane Austen fan & find the outrage from many at casting black actors in movies now for the period fascinating (& silly).
