Californians are NOT going to vote for Gavin Newsom. They're telling you now, with YEARS to go before the election. Fair warning. Please support better candidates, there will be many to choose from.

I think about this so often living in Detroit, a city that has been profoundly shaped by so many cultures and diasporas. Hamtramck in Detroit has the slogan “the whole world in two miles,” which I always find so beautiful, you can go there for Polish festivals and absolutely incredible Yemeni food.
I realise I'm just a freak, but living in a multicultural city is the best thing of all time, it's just the best possible human experience and i can not understand why anyone on earth would be like "weve got to destroy this"

The universe punished me for my comments about salt trucks. One cut across in front of me to make a left turn from a driving lane, then hogged both lanes after turning so that i couldn't pass. Another came up behind me, same thing, pinning me in. REVENGE OF THE SALT TRUCKS!!!
