Helen Keller was a socialist and a Wobblie, "noting in her lectures that many forms of blindness prevalent in the U.S. were traceable to industrial working conditions." How did I not know this? https://t.co/55trPngGv4

“Good E.V.s…are superior products…: They accelerate faster; they’re quieter; maintenance costs are lower. ‘The debate isn’t about that. The debate is about the rate at which we’ll get there. The whole globe is aimed in one direction.’” https://t.co/6WWTIVdJvW via @NYTimes

“At its core is the concept of sufficiency – the idea that people can enjoy a prosperous, healthy life without constantly striving to consume or accumulate more material possessions that degrade the natural world on which all life depends.” https://t.co/3mFM5Wfw9O

Amazing deal! @NYHTC “The average pay of housekeepers in New York City hotels will increase to more than $100,000 a year….The hotel owners will continue to pay the full cost of providing health-care benefits for 27,000 union members and their families.”https://t.co/lo3e64vuB6

“But to me, it’s becoming clear that writing and reading is a way of simply underscoring that human connection is important, that you can know my mind and I can know yours, which is a vastly consoling idea, and we need it.” https://t.co/MMwW35NI6i via @NYTimes

A shout out to my First Parish Unitarian Universalist of Arlington (and Sunday dog walk) pal Eric Segal for all the work he does to remind us what once made America great, and might yet make us great again. That you Eric! https://t.co/W1rduIGw7m

"Our minds are a split-screen: one half struggling to digest indigestible news, the other making sure we stop at red lights, pay our bills, and keep the kitchen clean." https://t.co/xaYKBcPZMt

@AnnPWrites says go through all your stuff first, then find a place for the stuff you're getting rid of. "This was a lesson I’d picked up from my work: writing must be separate from editing, and if you try to do both at the same time nothing will get done.”https://t.co/d6ijL4d9lD

“The war crimes of U-852 remind us that even in total war humanity must prevail. The oceans, often mercilous by nature, have long had a code of mercy among sailors.” https://t.co/Hnc1bBGuWz
