Happened to be on the phone with my daughter when the news broke. First there was hurt and stunned silence. Then came steeliness and a realization: women are rising up, banding together already, once again. Whoa. Watch out.

A wee thread about a young boy and the tweet that got away. Feel free to RT.

Hello
You just got over a wave of the most transmissible #SARSCoV2 variant the world has seen, with the highest level of hospitalizations in the pandemic.
Now you are facing a variant w/ 30% more transmissibility, w/o mitigation measures, low vaxx coverage, and gutting funding

Rasheda Ali, JOYFUL whenever she speaks of her father’s legacy, has stickers of “Daddy’s butterflies” on her computer.
Muhammad Ali’s fingerprint is used to make the Humanitarian Awards in his name. (Now I have have one!)

A quarter of the kids on my old No. 6 school bus in rural Oregon are dead from drugs, alcohol, suicide, and there are No. 6 buses all over the state and country. So I've made the leap. I'm running for governor and here's why. More at NickforOr.com. Please share! Thanks!
