I love this. People cared.
The WPA made toys for children from low-income families, especially around Christmas time.
Some toys were recycled & refurbished, others were made new. Some were given away, others were part of toy-lending projects.
Here are projects in Georgia & S.C.

I don't think anyone is saying we should go back to the Stone Age. We're saying we need to prevent another one.

200 years from now these young people will be seen as heroes. They’re doing a whole lot more to actually resist Big Oil tyranny than are a bunch of environmental organizations endorsing Biden in hopes that maybe just maybe they’ll get invited to a WH conference.
This is huge. This is absolutely monumental. We just shut down an event honoring Exxon CEO Darren Woods. The whole room fled. We showed up & prevented this monster from uttering a word. We will resist him with all we've got. There is no choice.

This is creating more hate, as it is creating more killing. Netanyahu’s policy is a dystopian nightmare that serves neither people; the United States should not support it, and as President I would say so. nytimes.com/live/2023/12/09/…

Thank you to the Florida progressive community for standing up for democracy at a time when the Florida Democratic Party is intent on suppressing it.

China has 22,000 miles of high-speed rail and we’re still celebrating every 200 miles we can get.
High-speed rail is 8 times more energy efficient than airplanes and 4 times more efficient than cars. The challenges are great but we need to keep pushing for it.

Throughout the country, the lack of affordable housing has reached crisis levels, but the housing crisis, like our healthcare crisis, and our environmental crisis is the spawn of an underlying root cause. #ANewBeginning
