If I got to ask for a spirit animal it would be an osprey. Our country's in dark times, but I'm holding on to good things at hand. A peaceful 4th of July to all.
US Senator thrown to ground, handcuffed, for asking a question. Be careful at your NO KINGS demos Saturday. But go!
Oh yeah that! We spent a couple of sessions working on lyrics. One set was an "exquisite corpse" game--you fold the paper and don't see what each other are writing. Michael fleshed that out into West of the Fields. I'm proud of that, and helping them realize they didn't need to write with others!
The propaganda of political division gives the illusion that it’s possible to punish the opposite party and not your own. As if there are two Americas and we can target our enemies to hurt only them. It’s a damn shame it will take Trump hurting all of America for some to find out we were never separate groups in the first place. Quote by Melissa Nadia Viviana
We have to stop dividing our problems into “left and right" and start seeing our problems like “top vs bottom.”
737 billionaires in the U.S. have a combined wealth of 5.5 trillion. And they funneled it out of the middle class.
Then Trump keeps us fighting with each other while they steal more.
I'm looking forward to reading this. Really sad to lose Harry.
On 4 May 1961, the Freedom Riders left Washington, D.C., in two buses and headed to New Orleans.
They faced violence, resistance, and arrests.
This interracial group aimed to challenge segregation in interstate bus travel and public facilities. 💙

New England is just revolting--again. Gettin' frisky on ye olde village green in Falmouth. No kings, y'all.
Find your local demo tomorrow, they're nationwide again.
Herring run has finally surged ahead after stalling from unseasonable cold. Today's scrum below the Quashnet fish ladder of 60+(plus a lower scrum in 2nd pic) is encouraging, but a shadow of the old days when 10s of thousands choked these streams.

Familiar style, but no. Initials at lower left?
More when I know it; meantime check out their website.
Kathleen Edwards rocking out on a lovely old Gibson at the Narrows Center in Fall River, a fantastic community-run venue. These old coast towns down to Providence have a lot going on. Night started with some of the Portugese food that adds to the area's Brazilian/Azorean/Cap Verdean flavor.
HANDS OFF Rally, Rt 28 Rotary, Hyannis MA. 2K+ people easy. Me with Irene's kidnapping sign, and so many other folks. Got some fingers from Tяumpists navigating the rotary. Good trouble. It's being felt.
Thanks to Tяumpf aka Richie McRichsacko'sht
Feel free to weigh in on your preference here.
I'm looking forward to getting out on the bay! Too bad oyster season ended Monday, they're just laying on top of the mud where town last stocked them by the Mashpee Neck dock.
Current choices for my tombstone:
1. I'm OK, You're OK.

Boston is ready for tomorrow's demo!
Demos all over the country again on Saturday--find one near you!
Some school kids in our town an hour outside Boston are staying home out of fear.
I always thought "Stand In the Place Where You Live" by REM would be a good 7th-inning song. Just a thought.
Best of luck with the gig!
Change of pace, thanks to St. Dolly. This is sad, but so sweet. Woulda liked ol' Carl. www.usatoday.com/story/entert...
Erg. Plus.
Herring in the house! Logged my first digit this year as a volunteer fish-counter monitoring this key local species. One go-getter broke loose from this scrum below the ladder and made the leap from Quashnet River into John's Pond. It's on.

POTUS "did not rule out the possibility of seeking a third term...saying...there were methods for doing so and clarifying that he was 'not joking.'" – NBC News
So he told us, folks, on Meet the Press, March 30, 2025. Are we going to prevent it, or roll over for it?
She was kidnapped for "creating a ruckus." In your country. Time for a much, much bigger ruckus.
Latest tariff had the desired effect right away--95% reduction in Hegseth group chat stories. Remarkable.
