I am a schmuck that used to work in a toy store and occasionally has opinions. Now I work in a pet store and sometimes have thoughts. Vaxed.

@VoteTrevorLee there's no way it's real. you're my rep, and wish you'd quit acting so gullible

people don’t understand how hard it is to deal with a kitty who wants to hug your arm while he sleeps - lost productivity is off the charts

RIP Ryuichi Sakamoto.
Here he is with anti-nuke mascot Monju-kun in 2012.

Gabriel is planting chili in Mettler CA. He is paid hourly to hand drop each small plant into row after row of future chilis. This puts a lot of strain on his lower back and the cold temperatures don’t help but he does this work to fill the gaps between his other jobs. #WeFeedYou

I think we should open an Online Banned Book Store.
Republican Books.
What’s the Top Ten so far?
I’m really hoping Hello Sailor gets banned. (Too bad it’s out of print.)

First discover your purpose or aim of the life by focusing on your strengths and what makes you unique.
Mostly we're told to fix our weaknesses and to conform ans fulfill the material expectations, but our strengths are what set us apart and what make us truly exceptional

Rain had a devastating effect on workers in Ventura Co., CA. Yesterday, on #CesarChavezDay, the UFWs farmworker led De "Campesinxs a Campesinxs" coalition's food distribution served 300+ families in Piru CA. Most were lemon workers-both from the fields & packing houses #WeFeedYou

Esther harvests strawberries in Oxnard, CA and shares: Normally I work 5 days a week. However these days things have been different due to rain. We work less so aren't earning what we need to pay bills. It's very cold. The rows are very muddy and filled with water. #WeFeedYou

@AnonUpon @NateForUtah @SeanCasten you're the one invoking "shall not be infringed." i think my point was clear.

“…To save man from the morass of propaganda, in my opinion, is one of the chief aims of education. Education must enable one to sift and weigh evidence, to discern the true from the false, the real from the unreal, and the facts from fiction.”

― Martin Luther King, Jr.

@AnonUpon @NateForUtah @SeanCasten that's a little silly. you can't drive a tank down the road. you can't own a rocket launcher. if someone on your block was trying to make napalm, you'd report it to the authorities, not shrug and go "well but i shall not infringe...."

Twice I arrived in cities (for law enforcement trainings) right after they had been hit by tornadoes--Little Rock and Oklahoma City. It was hard to look at and has stuck with me for decades.

I hope everybody in tornado danger areas tonight is alert and stays safe.

The new Vogtle nuclear unit just started producing electricity after many years of development. The site sits on 3100 acres, which is much more than enough for a gigantic solar + storage facility. This notion that nuclear and others are less land-intensive is flat out false.

In 1963, the mayor and city council of Jackson, Mississippi, chose to close its public swimming pools rather than admit black people into them.

Sound familiar?

Humberto's been working in the broccoli in Salinas CA under a UFW contract for 12+ years. He says: Thanks to Cesar Chavez farmworkers are protected. Under a Union contract we get many benefits including a paid holiday for #CesarChavezDay. I thank this great leader. #WeFeedYou

[John Cleese @JohnCleese]

I'm interested in the phrase 'witch hunt'

Of course, we don't believe in witches now

But only the literal minded think we're talking about real witches

Supposing witch means 'naughty person'

Then a witch hunt is OK if there IS a witch

[Ernesto’s Sanctuary for Syrian animls @theAleppoCatmen]

There are some animals in the earthquake zones still stay near their former homes or are still waiting for the return of people who will never return.
twice a week our mission is to returns to those areas to rescue those we find abandoned, and to care for the animals of the community.
Yesterday we rescued a cat and cared dozens of animals .
