Colbert should turn this into a country-wide tour, raising money for the development of more public access channels and local PBSes.
actually, if there is one thing rich Hollywooders and musical acts should do all across the country ―very loudly and proudly― is raising money for local public access radio & tv; especially college radio stations.
celebrity is social capital needed to re-develop locally what the monopolists destroyed nationally.

We’re just under six months away from the midterms — and Republicans are doing everything they can to silence voters and entrench minority rule.

Just voted for Xavier Becerra for Governor.
His experience as U.S. Secretary of Health & Human Services and on House Ways & Means make him uniquely qualified to bring universal health care to CA in post-Project 2025 America. His accomplishments over 35 years from the environment to standing up to ICE to defending the ACA as CA Attorney General are too many too list here.
Plus, he stood with LGBTQs back when few politicians would stand with us and I am happy to stand with Xavier Becerra today.

Me: this is how bikes get repaired and recycled in this one small town.
- The junkyard guy leaves nice ones out by his gate for a day or two before dismantling them for scrap.
- there are several people in the town who know they can come past regularly and take anything by the gate
- there's a guy who takes any bikes he thinks we can salvage, they are almost always kids' bikes, there are just more of those
- a rotating group of friends and people who want to learn about bikes work on them
- when they're finished we distribute them by word of mouth: is there anyone around 6-8yo who wants a purple bike?
- the bikes seem to come with lifetime servicing. No one mentions this until the bike needs servicing, then they just say 'we better get onto servicing your bike, hey?' and it happens
- you can do a trade-in/upgrade. Kids swap their bikes for bigger bikes, people service the little bike and give it to another kid
-there is no name, no official location, no contact details for this, it's an ephemeral property that emerges from the community every day that the community has capacity to do it. It is fascinating and I am glad to have witnessed it.

Rep Noah Arbit, a Jewish Dem from West Bloomfield Twsp, described #SamanthaWoll as the "kindest, most beautiful soul."
"I am shattered & broken & unable to move. There are no words. The kindest, most beautiful soul taken in the most evil, brutal way. Sam was committed to justice & equality. In her name we will never give up. Baruch Dayan Emet, Sam. You were so loved & cherished,”Arbit wrote.
