Good News of the day is a reflection. Neighbors, good neighbors brighten my day. Houston experienced a snowstorm unlike any I had seen here. We went out to clean sidewalks and our car. Pretty soon, neighbors showed up to help clear my path and clean my car of snow. #positivenews #goodnews #neighbors

People with disabilities often struggle to find clothing which fits. Some clothing can even be dangerous. I stopped looking for styles I like because I simply

#rewilding In Texas. When I was a small boy, we used to see Horned Lizards all the time. Decades later, I cannot remember seeing one since elementary school. This project in Texas is working to change that. #hornedlizard #rewildingtexas

It took a few weeks. I now know what to do here.

When my mother was dying, she expressed a fear. Her fear was that society was losing its humanity. All she noted was how bad news had taken over Media. She feared we were going in reverse.

I will share good news stories. #goodnews #nopolitics

The world’s richest 1% have more wealth than the bottom 95% put together, according to Oxfam.

There is no moral justification for this extraordinary level of inequality.

It's distorting politics, rigging our markets, and granting unprecedented power to a handful of people.
World’s top 1% own more wealth than 95% of humanity, as “the shadow of global oligarchy hangs over UN General Assembly,” says Oxfam | Oxfam International

Being in the mountains changes everything.

You’re away from:
- daily chaotic routine
- the noise
- your to-do’s

And you find yourself closer to:
- nature
- your soul
- what truly matters

Spend more time in environments like this 🧡

Today I found myself asking the question; “Why am I on Bluesky?” The best answer I came up with is that I am on Bluesky as an act of resistance against the growing threat of algorithms manipulating discourse, endangering all that I hold dear. I am a seeker of truth & authentic interaction. #bluesky

The concentration of wealth in the hands of an elite few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy.

When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, the American people don't have a voice.

The result is demagoguery and corruption.
