Yes. I’m sappy. I grew up with a crush on Robert Redford wishing I could sing like Barbra Streisand. The Way We Were shaped me. It was my first love story.
This had me in tears. And boy was she brave to sing. She did it for him. ❤️😢❤️😢❤️
Alex Pretti was a Minneapolis ICU nurse who spent his days caring for and saving others. Today, he was shot and killed by a Border Patrol Agent. Alex’s life was extinguished by state violence. We must tell the truth about what is happening.
My father warned us, “When evil men plot, good men must plan. When evil men burn and bomb, good men must build and bind.”
What we are witnessing now (masked raids, people taken without due process, vigilante, Gestapo, and slave patrol-like tactics normalized under the color of law) is a moral crisis.
Nonviolence demands more than outrage; it demands action.
Congress must dismantle ICE; enact just, humane immigration policies; and ensure implementation of the policies by people who honor the humanity of Black and Brown immigrants, respect those raising their voices in support of immigrants, and seek the safety of community.
The blood of those who are being kidnapped and unjustly killed by agents with impunity is not only on the hands of those who pull the trigger, but on every lawmaker and every court that has the power to intervene and chooses silence.
Creating the Beloved Community requires truth, accountability, and the courage to act before more lives are lost.

Nurses across the country are heartbroken and outraged, and we demand the immediate abolition of ICE!
If you only invoke the Second Amendment after children are murdered in their schools, but defend the government when it claims someone deserved to be executed for being legally armed, then you do not believe in the Second Amendment
This is the goodboy Finn. He’s 10 weeks old and already convinced he’s the baby’s personal teddy bear. Gets wheeled around in the stroller, receives unlimited snuggles, and occasionally tries to lick the pacifier. Living his absolute best life.
Rob Reiner:
"Silence in the face of authoritarianism is complicity. Speaking out is a patriotic act. Democracy doesn’t defend itself. It requires participation, vigilance, and courage from ordinary people."
