I worked with a bunch of cool people on this issue as an employee of @afscme.bsky.social way back in 2011. Successfully restoring child care for 17,000 kids remains one of the highlights of my career. Shame on those who would kick little kids out of preschool and put working parents into crisis.

How is it that there is something closer to justice in Morrisey's case than there is in Trump's?

Dems in Congress seem to have missed a key lesson in leadership: Be the thermostat, not the thermometer! Don’t just read the room, tell the room what to feel & what to do about it.

THE INCREDIBLE HULK #181: an analogy for the current moment. Canada is represented by Wolverine, feisty, resilient and punching above his weight. The US is represented not by the noble Captain America, but the Hulk, a dumb and impulsive brute who somehow forgot that Canada is a sovereign country.

DHS names schools, hospitals and churches as sites for enforcement. My mind immediately went to the ways that the state terrorized Black people throughout history but specific examples from the civil rights era like Bloody Tuesday. This isn't a dog whistle, they are saying it plainly and out loud.

I hope, but I genuinely doubt, that the water infrastructure crisis in the City of Richmond that has forced the General Assembly to postpone the Commonwealth's business and the Governor to flee to his tax free horse farm will lead both to adequately fund fixing it.

Shout-out to the guy at a Henrico Wendy's who when I asked if I could fill up my jugs with tap water from the soda fountain said "It ain't mine!"

HEY WORLD BEYOND RVA! Are y’all just learning about us not having water? Cool! Wanna know how to help? (Bringing attention to it is great AND there are some folks on the ground doing good work!)

Hey y'all we've got work to do to continue to build our Democratic party and continue to build political representation in the Latino community. Glad to be a part of the Unity and Growth slate. ¡Adelante!

Stuff I think is not cool: neo-nazi cabinet appointments, "right to work" for less laws, blaming marginalized people for the failures of a government or political party, acting like child rearing isn't also work, people who profit from my desire for my children to be free from sickness or injury

stuff I think is cool: local journalism, busting trusts, intentionally dismantling legacy public policy designed with slavery, jim crow or massive resistance in mind, voting, the equal protection clause, "the rising american electorate," star trek, mexican food
