via Facebook... I'm pretty positive this needs to be in my life. Ashley, what do you think?
If you ask me what I came into this world to do, I will tell you; I came to live out loud.

via Facebook... " When a mother and her autistic son are evicted, where are they supposed to turn? For Bessie Taylor of Monterey County, every option has come up short. Now, she’s worried about what comes next. Bessie Taylor and her autistic son, Devonte Bessie Taylor and her autistic son, Devonte Bessie and Devonte Taylor are staying in a motel, but come Friday, the money for that will run out. “I don’t want to cry in front of him. I don’t want him to see that I’m hurting. But he knows. He’s going, ‘Are you OK? Is it my fault why we moved?’ He thinks it’s his fault that we had to move. He asks me every day, ‘Is it because of me?’ No, it’s not because of you,” Bessie said." There is a number to offer legal aid and a link for donations.

via Facebook... Okay, something is very wrong in this school. This is the kid e who was suspended for the magic ring.... "Aiden once brought his favorite book to school to impress his teacher, but school officials freaked out because “The Big Book of Knowledge” had a section about pregnancy and included an illustration of a pregnant woman. In another innocuous incident, Aiden referred to a black student as black, which drew yet another suspension from the school."

via Facebook... Hmm. The point is not to restrict their speech, but to not vigorously defend it from other non-governmental groups. The KKK gets police protection during a march, black protesters get met by police in riot gear. " White nationalism has no kernel of truth for us to unearth through discussion and debate. In the marketplace of ideas, it’s strawberry-flavored rat poison. Fascism has nothing to offer, and we have zilch to gain from hearing out fascists. We may, however, have a lot to lose. There’s no such thing as nonviolent Nazis. Their only role in a free society is planning to overthrow it. Liberalism asks that we treat speech the way the government does, remaining agnostic with regard to its content as long as it doesn’t incite imminent lawless action. The liberal argument goes that the answer to bad speech isn’t censorship or force but better speech. No matter that white nationalists are using the Constitution as cover to organize against the document’s declared values; the rules still protect them. There’s a lot of self-satisfaction in this pose, but it’s staggeringly vulnerable. Neo-Nazis pursuing an entryist strategy join the military and other state institutions, gaining access to training and recruitment opportunities and biding their time. In the event of social upheaval, white nationalists plan to be prepared."

via Facebook... Yay! This is super very cool. R.j. and I are going to give it a try for five days of dinner, but you can get 3 meals a day, mailed to your house. A nice way to supplement your menu, a menu you don't have to plan, an awesome gift for a new mom or someone sick....share, this is awesome.
