Went to Japan again, and to no surprise, being able to go around without a car is so nice! All the cities in the US need to be remade to be public transportation heavy, pedestrian friendly, and biker friendly to help our mental health and local businesses to thrive.

LA is a culturally expansive city, and these past few days with the arrival of ICE terrorists has been heartbreaking. Although, there are people that are out there fighting those fascists they are truly heroes and what humanity should look like. As Mr. Roger said look for the helpers

“The truth is that a tattoo identifying Tren de Aragua does not exist,” she told me. “Tren de Aragua does not use any tattoos as a form of gang identification; no Venezuelan gang does.”

A big misconception about Greenland is that since it’s labeled a Danish colony, its residents are just a bunch of white dudes named Kristian—which is extremely harmful and inaccurate.

The population is 85% Indigenous! It belongs to the Kalaallit people, not to Denmark and CERTAINLY not to the U.S.

I can’t, living in the US is becoming too stressful. I missed having a democracy, and could not have waited for a well funded IRS to help fund our services properly. Yet, when 2024 ended in Kamala losing that ruined me. Democracy continues to falter to white nationalism without a hitch
