yes yes we all know about the Edmund Fitzgerald, rest her soul, but did you know about the ship laden with explosives that sank in the mouth of the Thames in 1944 and could explode at any minute and which attempts to disarm keep failing

The end of federal enforcement of special ed laws. Some states - including MN - will likely be ok. But a lot of disabled kids in a lot of states are going to lose the education that federal law and decades of jurisprudence say they are owed.
Education Department wipes out special ed office in shutdown layoffs, union says
The Education Department laid off nearly everyone at the Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services.

The annual pumpkin display at the entrance of Governor Pritzker’s personal residence on Astor Street. He is the pumpkin king. Illinois produces the most pumpkins, including canned, than any other state in the U.S., twice as many as the next five states combined.

No Democrat should vote to keep the government open unless ACA funding is restored for the millions of Americans at risk of losing health coverage next year.
Remember that this funding is on the chopping block because Trump and Republicans want to give the richest Americans a giant tax cut.

I promise, no matter where you live, your local food pantry needs volunteers. This is a solid suggestion
My mother runs the food pantry in my hometown. She NEVER has enough help, and she’s been there every week For Years.
I help when I go see her.
You can do this.
And it legit helps other folx.

if you can, go see if your local food pantry needs volunteers. they're probably swamped as the economy continues in freefall and people change their habits on a dime to avoid ice. it's like working at a grocery store without having a shitty manager, and you'll feel a little less helpless

Every time I feel like I know a lot about the rise of fascism in Germany, I learn something new.
My mom called me last night about the Kimmel firing, saying "This is how Hitler got started!" I quickly responded, "By firing the late night tv hosts?"
Turns out, mom was right.

A pitch for those of you canceling Disney+/Hulu this week would be to use that cash and subscribe to PBS/PBS Passport.
Public media is foundational to our democracy and supporting @pbs.org is just about the best value for your dollar. Plus, there are so many British mysteries!!!

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say.
This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand.
All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.

All pharmacies should be assured they can legally give the vaccine, and that they can give the vaccine to everyone over the age of 5 without a prescription.

Matthew is right: you are very likely qualified for the vaccine under one of the many conditions that put you at high risk for severe disease, and you will be doing everyone else a huge favor if you go through the hassle of telling the pharmacist you are physically inactive and getting that shot.
