This is what solidarity and community look like. It’s the most important thing we can learn and do find and build communities to protect one another.

With twice as many guns as people in this country, it's going to become a shooting war soon enough. How can it not when ruining lives is a state sponsored goal? www.cnn.com/2019/07/22/u...

"Notwithstanding the NLRB's denial, the whistleblower's disclosure to Congress and other federal overseers includes forensic data and records of conversations with colleagues that provide evidence of DOGE's access and activities." www.npr.org/2025/04/15/n...

I ran into this. It's a radio station that takes me back to young enough to like having the radio on. This has been entirely missing from my world for many, many years. (ps, it's more than 40 years. It played Chubbie Checkers, The Twist!) live365.com/station/Toes...
