I collect & share ideas others can use to fight poverty & inequality & help volunteer-based tutor/mentor orgs grow in more places. Piloted since 1993 in Chicago. I have posted on social media since mid 2000s. Testing this platform now
In this article I shared a Child Care Systems #ConceptMap created using Kumu. mappingforjustice.blogspot.com/2025/12/usin...
I've shared uses of #maps on this blog since 2008. Does someone in your city have a similar collection, written for so many years?

Each day, I am using poems gathered and curated by @deannamascle.bsky.social in her Advent of Joy calendar, by taking a "line for a walk" -- using a line or phrase of the poem to inspire my own.
This morning's #poetry is inspired by Vladimir Lucien's 'uses of the erotic'

Powerful video shows how US & Western countries are helping arm the Russia murder machine. Greed wins, every time.
Every night Russian drones kill Ukrainians and they keep flying only because over 5,000 Western and Asian parts power them.

I had to renew my Illinois drivers license today. I went to the DMV in Schaumburg. I had called a couple of weeks ago to schedule the appointment. I had to take the driving test, too.
It went smoothly. All the people were courteous and friendly.

I REMEMBER.
In 1981, nearly 100% of people with AIDS died, often rapidly.
I remember weeping.
I remember Ronald Reagan's refusal to say "AIDS".
I remember the brave patients, loving caregivers, and the defiant power of ACT-UP.
And finally the miracle of modern therapy.
Rise up for World AIDS day.

Commemorating #WorldAIDSday is an act of defiance against ideology driven policies that will end our progress to end the epidemic.

If it weren't so important that all GOP candidates lose in every election for the next few cycles. these constant texts would drive me not to vote.

A message to the Democratic Party.
As a life long Dem voter, may I suggest that y’all STOP the damn robo-texts during all family holidays.
We aren’t stupid.
Stop acting like we think it’s YOU, cause we know you are with your family and not in DC.
Take note.
