When our adult hospice patients need urgent end-of-life nursing care between 5:30 p.m. and 1:30 a.m., Amy is a calm, reassuring presence they can count on.

This is a great example of what hospice care is about. Thank you to all the hospice nurses on call tonight and every night!

Chip In to Turn Kansas Blue! Show your support of the Democratic County Parties across Kansas!

If you want to see better turnout across #Kansas, then donate to every organized county party for Kansas Democrats. There are 30 of them! We need to be turning out voters and candidates all across this state, and that requires funding.

Bathroom upgrades >>>>> fines and lawsuits!

I'm sure the bathrooms could all use a facelift anyway.

Give the people what they want!

Safe, clean access to bathroom facilities.

You're a concerned citizen worried about fiscal responsibility! 😜

Contact your county, city and school boards to demand they explore bathroom upgrade options ensuring access for all without human enforcement.

Would they rather face fines and lawsuits or upgrade bathrooms for all?

Did you know that any entity that doesn't comply with the hateful Kansas bathroom bill will be fined $25,000 on 1st offense and $125,000 on all subsequent offenses?

That means counties, cities, and schools are now potentially liable for millions of dollars of new fines across the state.

Do you live in Kansas?

Do you oppose state-sanctioned discrimination?

Here is a novel way to force government officials to deal with the very real consequences of the hateful Kansas bathroom bill, while NOT endangering the trans community!

WOKE transit (car):
Needs license/registration so the government can track you
Government regularly inspects it to legally drive
Legally forces you to pay
Insurance so they can pay for other people's accidents
Fuel needs big government subsidies to stay under $5/gallon
Government can revoke privilege to drive anytime

PATRIOT transit (bike):
Not required to register
No inspection requirement
Bike insurance optional.
Not required
No need for government subsidies
Biking privilege cannot be revoked

That’s a good framing.

This is how our government has been corrupted:

1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat

We must get big money out of politics. It’s the root of all evil in Washington.

One benefit for e-bikes I rarely see discussed but I feel innately: e-bikes mean fewer cars pass = fewer near misses in painted bike lanes.

If my average speed on an e-bike is 18MPH but only 10MPH on a regular bike cars going 35 MPH are much less likely to catch up to me on an e-bike.

I am raising money for the 30 County Parties of the Kansas Democratic Party. Surely there are 100 donors out there that want to start supercharging the state of #Kansas to turnout Dem voters.

I've seen the power of county party infrastructure change elections.

Yeah, the look on the audience when he said that was classic.

I’m so appreciative of a city council that responds to the issues of the day with genuine concern and grounded political effectiveness.

Burchfield: I and several other councilmembers have asked city staff about what it would cost to retrofit all our city facilities with single occupancy stalls that anyone can use.

Misc Council Items: Councilmember Burchfield announces town hall coming up later this month, and thanks resident who spoke up about Transgender Day of Visibility. I wish we could just work on city business, but the state is making laws about who can use city facilities and made us responsible for it

The current crop of #Hospice and #PalliativeCare social media creatives using video are reaching people far beyond what organizations are able to do. And we probably need more of them doing this. There is a big information gap and connecting with the public could be key to the field succeeding.

Created a hub tonight for social media posts from #PalliativeCare social media creatives on Discord. It has a RSS feed that puts the posts from diff platforms all in 1 place.

Also hoping it serves as a place to discuss tips and tools and support when comments get nasty. #HAPC
