Ugh .....this shows. An author isn't showing you something; they're highlighting, or emphasizing or demonstrating something. Use a strong verb; not a week verb..

You can do either in that amount of time. Go for it.

Many of y’all asked how you can support and donate to our female athletes and the celebrations,,, so I created a Go Fund Me. I’m hopeful this can have an impact beyond the weekend and help those that represent the best of the US

This sounds super cool.
Nailed it
That's exciting; I didn't know a new one was coming out!
The Rev. Jesse Jackson, a towering civil rights leader and two-time presidential candidate, has died. He was 84.
Please share
I don’t really know what I expect in posting this, but maybe some people see it and can learn from it.
I’ll call it “lessons from an unwilling immigration attorney.”

My friend Heather mentioned the RELENTLESS helicopters—constant from 6 am til dark
Don was taken into custody by federal agents last night in Los Angeles.
Absolutely. I'm an pen and paper teacher as well.
Every social theory undergirding Trumpism has been broken on the steel of Minnesotan resolve. The multiracial community in Minneapolis was supposed to shatter. It did not. It held until Bovino was forced out of the Twin Cities with his long coat between his legs. The secret fear of the morally depraved is that virtue is actually common, and that they’re the ones who are alone. In Minnesota, all of the ideological cornerstones of MAGA have been proved false at once. Minnesotans, not the armed thugs of ICE and the Border Patrol, are brave. Minnesotans have shown that their community is socially cohesive—because of its diversity and not in spite of it. Minnesotans have found and loved one another in a world atomized by social media, where empty men have tried to fill their lonely soul with lies about their own inherent superiority. Minnesotans have preserved everything worthwhile about “Western civilization,” while armed brutes try to tear it down by force.
Last week in Minnesota, I watched ordinary people risk their lives to protect their neighbors. In the process, they not only won a significant—though not final—victory against authoritarianism, they proved virtually every MAGA social theory wrong. (gift link) www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...
ICE ended up returning the man, Saly, after realizing he’s a fucking US citizen with no criminal record, per his sister-in-law. These fucking animals.
Wow!
This was excellent and helpful framing
Here are my top 10 dogs and their grandparents!
For video recording bring a GoPro or a Sony Cyber-shot. If you need to communicate with someone in the crowd we recommend something like these family devices folks use when say going to a carnival or the amusement park.
Keep your data and your phone off and bagged

If you're going to a protest and you don't want the feds to hack into your phone while your there.
We recommend a Faraday Bag for your phone
They can track you and your phone and charge you later for even just being there. $24 bucks well spent.

For #40 the book Room by Emma Donoghue
A must-read message from Colin and Sophie Hortman, Mark and Melissa's children:
OF THE EMPIRE We will be known as a culture that feared death and adored power, that tried to vanquish insecurity for the few and cared little for the penury of the many. We will be known as a culture that taught and rewarded the amassing of things, that spoke little if at all about the quality of life for people (other people), for dogs, for rivers. All the world, in our eyes, they will say, was a commodity. And they will say that this structure was held together politically, which it was, and they will say also that our politics was no more than an apparatus to accommodate the feelings of the heart, and that the heart, in those days, was small, and hard, and full of meanness.
Ever relevant, this poem by Mary Oliver, especially today.
This is the second time I did it because apparently I didn't save the first one which was wolfish. I can go for wolfishly blissful for the year.
Great book!
I think that's okay. Discuss it with the kids. How did they feel about the ending? It's a good talking point.
