  1. Honestly, I don't know how to ask for mutual aid. So far, I understand that mutual aid is one of the forms of effort and solidarity in addressing injustices. I'm not sure if the algorithm buried my request. My house has been really smelly because I wish I could afford some pet toilet sand replacements and some deodorant, among other needs.

  2. A quotation from Brennan Manning

    When we wallow in guilt, remorse, and shame over real or imagined sins of the past, we are disdaining God’s gift of grace.

    The Ragamuffin Gospel, ch. 6 “Grazie, Signore” (1990)

  4. A quotation from Robert Louis Stevenson

    And how many loves have perished because, from pride, or spite, or diffidence, or that unmanly shame which withholds a man from daring to betray emotion, a lover, at the critical point of the relation, has but hung his head and held his tongue?

    Robert Louis Stevenson (1850-1894) Scottish essayist, novelist, poet
    Essay (1879-05), “The Truth of Intercourse,” Cornhill Magazine, Vol. 39

  8. How many scandals will it take for DOJ to investigate Clarence Thomas?

    Let’s get this straight: If a state legislator accepts so much as a sandwich, they must disclose it.

    So it’s been very difficult to understand how Supreme Court Justice #Clarence #Thomas has gotten away with accepting free trips on superyachts and private jets belonging to a billionaire, #Harlan #Crow, not to mention a sweetheart real estate deal with that same billionaire, without disclosing them. For years.

    As unsavory as all this is, it’s also not out of character. Thomas and his wife have been at the center of all kinds of ethics scandals for years.

    It has gotten very disheartening, even disgusting, to watch the never-ending Thomas carnival of #corruption bring #shame on the Supreme Court. It’s time for it to stop.

    Now that it’s come to light, the party should be over for Thomas. I say "should" because while there is a lot of #talk about #accountability, it’s been less clear how that will come to pass.

    Thomas has resisted calls to #resign. #Impeachment seems highly unlikely given the Republican leadership of the House. Senate #hearings may happen, and that’s a positive step.

    Fortunately, there are also other options, including one very good one with solid legal underpinnings: a Department of Justice (DOJ) #investigation under federal statutes that require disclosure of the kind of perks Thomas has enjoyed, and also authorize #penalties for violators.

    The #DOJ should investigate Thomas’s unethical and possibly illegal violations #without #delay.
