- If only I could do their laundry from the PNW. Delivery times would suck. But if you are closer and wanna help, this seems like a fantastic idea.
- If you live in the Cities, an easy way to help immigrant families in hiding is: laundry! Laundromats are ICE magnets, so people without washers need help. The People’s Laundry will drop off laundry to your door to wash and dry and pick up a few days later: thepeopleslaundrympls.com/volunteer/
- Drove south for the holidays and it was shocking to see Lake Shasta almost to full to the tree line and the San Joaquin was GREEN. Like fields with the happiest cows I have seen in ages. Have driven the I-5 corridor for almost 20 years. Never has it been GREEN.

- Reposted by Nikki Rice MalkiIf you’re turned away at the polls (in Virginia or anywhere in the U.S.), here’s what to do: - Request a written explanation: If poll workers deny your regular ballot, ask them to put in writing why they refused it.
- Reposted by Nikki Rice MalkiReminder: In Virginia, you can register to vote on Election Day through same-day voter registration. This lets you register in person and cast a provisional ballot if you missed the regular registration deadline. Your vote will be counted once eligibility is confirmed, so don’t sit this one out!

- Perfection.
- Ok, everyone is gonna have to be extra careful around us, older Seattle Mariners fans the next few days. The PTSD will hit hard. But our hope won’t die. Hasn’t for (checks calendar)….30 years. 😑
- Grateful to live in the PNW where our local park in the city, seems like a deep magical forest far away.
- 8 yr old, made a Thank You note for a recent gift. Did the front cover & back but refused to put anything inside. When pressed to draw something inside, this is what he came back with, saying “It’s a Magritte joke!” 😳…Watch out world. (Reference photo from en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Tre...)
- Never stopped to read the original essay before. It’s striking how it resonates today. I teach college art students but even if I wasn’t a teacher, this gave me new perspective on being a part of society & helping change it to one I can be proud of. Read it. www.zinnedproject.org/materials/ba...

- Heads up Alaska friends and West in general. Pay attention!
- My youth prepared me for certain things growing up. Turns out quicksand, not as big an issue as was lead to believe but no one even mentioned ANTS! That is the life long battle of adults. Ants just march right in like they own the place! THE PLACS THAT YOU CAN’T EVEN OWN ON YOUR OWN!

- Dear Doctors, when a patient is in office asking a question about the new drug you have just prescribed to them. Please, please for the love of everything, DO NOT Google the med and then proceed to read out loud through the AI overview as fact. Your patient’s respect for you will drop precipitously.
