Good morning friends! Sending you all a big hug on this Friday morning. Today I will be trying to remember that even small acts of kindness and love matter—and to do a few.

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

“If I sit next to a madman as he drives a car into a group of innocent bystanders, I can’t, as a Christian, simply wait for the catastrophe, then comfort the wounded and bury the dead. I must try to wrestle the steering wheel out of the hands of the driver.” -Dietrich Bonhoeffer

Zelenskyy challenging a US official to join him in a visit to an active frontline is iconic. Unlike other countries whose leadership wages war from thousands of miles away, he has visited the trench line on multiple occasions. Armed himself to fight Russian special forces sent to kill him in Kyiv.

The best thing about the Hobbit is that the GM seeded this artifact for the halfling to stumble across, clearly intending it to kick off the wider campaign. And when he asks Bilbo's player "Do you tell Gandalf about the ring you found" so he can reveal the lore, that bastard just says "Nah."

Musk and Trump are not expecting the moves they make to stick. They are jamming the shifter all over the place while the car that is the US bureaucracy is revving at 5000 RPM. It doesn’t matter if they are overruled, eventually the government will throw a rod and catch on fire. That’s their goal.

It feels like no one should have to say this, and yet we are in a situation where it needs to be said, very loudly and clearly, before it’s too late to do anything about it: The United States is not a startup. If you run it like one, it will break. 🔗 www.wired.com/story/the-us...

Folks, I don't intend to post about every single horrible thing that's happening at the moment because I'm not a direct news source and also because my mental health has an upper limit. Don't confuse lack of obsessive news updating for lack of concern or lack of personal action. Also, here's a cat.

It seems like the biggest impediment to trying to stop what Musk and Trump are doing aren't strictly conservatives, just people who hate the fact we were right about everything that would happen if he were elected.

Murphy: "We need to act like a real opposition party in the middle of a constitutional and democracy crisis. That means we should not be moving forward nominees or legislation in the Senate. Ds should not be giving votes to nominee or legislation in the Senate until Rs get serious about this crisis"

Remember when Obama was elected and the GOP made its first priority preventing his reelection? And they sabotaged everything they could, constantly, for eight years? It would be cool to see more Dems that dedicated to preserving American democracy. Is your politician fighting? Tell us about them.
