Doggo, Scout, got a funeral home visit to open it up and run a bit on this rainy day. Love having her excited energy in the space.

Un/related: how legit is that new rug that started and guides the interior updates. Really hoping it will pull the building together.

Weird shit you find in the garage after years of repression about your actual mental state as a busy widow while looking through the Christmas totes.

Chaco Canyon was a cultural center for the ancestral Puebloans between 900 - 1150-, known for its "great house" structures, road systems, and sophisticated astronomical alignments. This World Heritage Site was a hub for trade and ceremony, housing up to 5,000 people, before its decline in the 1100s.

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.

The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

His wife Latifa Chambers anounced that Jimmy Cliff, beloved ambassador of reggae music, has passed at age of 81.

A star since the 1960s, he helped to bring the sound of Jamaica to a global audience and his lead role in the The Harder They Come (1972) is a cornerstone of Jamaican cinema.

Wow very very innovative protest!
In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

OTD in 2014, police officer Timothy Loehmann killed 12-year-old Tamir Rice—a Black child—in 1.7 seconds as Tamir played in a park.

People often talk about those 1.7 seconds—but forget about the 4 minutes. After Loehmann shot Tamir, he refused to let anyone get near him for 4 agonizing minutes.

TheMC and I found a random ass mix cd my dead husband made between 2009 and 2010 when he died. It’s full of weird white girl hip hop covers and some Fela Kuti.

What the actual fuck are we listening to?

I’ve vacuumed, washed windows, made Chex mix, cared for plants and am listening to Peter Tosh sing about equal rights and justice.

Seems it worked…
