Come, look up with kindness yet,
For even solace can be sourced from sorrow.
We remember, not just for the sake of yesterday,
But to take on tomorrow.
~ from "New Day's Lyric by Amanda Gorman, poem for 2022 newsweek.com/read-amanda-gor…
In 72-hour hotel room isolation. No booze, no tv, work computer won’t connect to the internet. 10-hour time change too. Taking up urban planning.

Boulder OEM is getting many calls about residents seeing fire. IF YOU SEE FIRE, EVACUATE. Go east, go north, but leave immediately. More info to come through OEM channels.

Books do not damage kids. If it’s too advanced, they stop reading. A ton of other things damage kids at school: bullying, sexual harassment and assault, cruelty and insults from students and teachers. Books help kids deal with all of this trauma.

What is the point of throwing $768 billion at the military when there's no war, at a time when millions of families are going hungry — and continue to lack the care they need to survive, let alone thrive?

Forgive me for sounding like a broken record, but how on Earth are we supposed to believe we “can’t afford” paid family leave, universal pre-K, or climate action when our politicians are willing to pass a $768 billion annual defense budget without batting an eye?

These days, a premium is being placed on whether white kids might feel bad about their own heritage after learning about things like American genocide, slavery or internment. But no one asks what it’s like for minority kids to learn about these things. /1
Sorry @JAXOutdoorGear , we’re in a mask mandate and no one in your store is wearing masks. You’re lost my sale and future business.

Ignore the right-wing spin about inflation. A key reason inflation is up and gas prices are high is because Saudi Arabia is withholding oil production. Biden won’t meet with MBS after the murder of Khashoggi, and the kingdom is enacting revenge by driving up energy prices.

This is a before and after shot of what a single shelving unit in the library’s Teen Space would look like if we removed every book with content that could offend someone. Out of 159 books, there are ten left on the shelves.
ALT Side by side photos of library shelves. The shelf on the left is full of books. The shelf of the right is almost empty.
ALT A pile of books on the ground covered in bright yellow sticky notes with black writing.
