I found the year’s first Pipevine swallowtail!! Sometimes hope is found in something as small as a butterfly. When everything feels heavy, I walk along the creek near home. The sound of water over rocks, sighting fresh blooms, the call of birds, remind me that the world still hums with quiet life.

Cities must stand together to defend our communities & our values. Boston, Cambridge, Somerville, Brookline, Chelsea, Lynn & Newton all issued Executive Orders protecting residents from unconstitutional & violent federal operations. Proud to stand alongside city & state colleagues, DAs & advocates 🙌

When people are afraid to go to work, afraid to shop, or afraid to gather in their community, it hurts families, neighborhoods, and our entire economy. If you can, show up for a small business and let’s continue to show the nation what it means to respond with care and decency.

Hooman, your piano playing lulls me to sleep 💤 😸😽 "So is that a compliment or a critique? Zlatko, zlatko?!" Croatian cat Zlatko being his ruthlessly honest self. #cat #piano #sleep

Today, construction on the nation’s largest infrastructure project came to a halt - with hundreds laid off - because Donald Trump is out of control. The good news: political pressure still works, and we can use our voices to make sure he doesn’t have the last word.

Candlemas is celebrated 40 days after Christmas. It commemorates Mary and Joseph presenting Jesus at the Temple in Jerusalem. Candlemas services traditionally include a procession of candles. Hymns may be sung and candles are lit to remind us of Jesus, the light of the world.

What have we become as a country? Where is our humanity? Does working for ICE or being in positions of authority mean leaving common decency and common sense behind? He Witnessed an Earlier Shooting. Feds Arrested Him at the Scene of Alex Pretti’s Killing. theintercept.com/2026/01/31/m...

A year ago today, Quakers around the country sued the Trump admin. to stop ICE raids in houses of worship. The case remains ongoing, and our call remains the same: 📣Congress must rein in ICE + protect sacred community spaces where everyone deserves to feel safe.

Every ill advised social media post in the middle of the night, every off the cuff tirade by IQ47 should illicit this kind of response. Danish pension fund to sell $100 million in U.S. Treasurys share.google/aAowr0v7OXkf...

People tend to assume this map is meant to be a boycott guide. It isn't. What it is: • A tool for understanding the scale of ICE’s corporate ecosystem and how it extends into our communities • A starting point for strategic, targeted organizing

All eyes on Minnesota. Today in solidarity I’m demanding Enterprise choose us: truth, freedom, the constitution and our communities. Stand with me in demanding Enterprise stop renting to ICE. #ICEOUT share.jwj.org/s/t7dP6mXy

Home Depot has been siding with ICE instead of our communities. Enough is enough. Let’s raise the pressure! Put the exec team on blast: #ICEOUT #FreeAmerica share.jwj.org/s/T0qWRUxv

Cancel Your Paramount Subscription About 100 CBS News employees were let go yesterday. That included eight on-air correspondents and hosts – all of them are women, with half of them women of color. More layoffs to come. Do read the article below. www.yahoo.com/news/article...

The largest war ship in the world has been moved to the Caribbean, along with other ships, bombers, amphibious vehicles and more. That’s a lot of firepower to stop small vessels carrying drugs. It looks a lot more like preparation for war. Congress needs to get involved before it’s too late.

Thanks giving, Gratitude In spite of what is happening to our country, there are still many things we can be grateful for. Maybe reflecting on them will give us more energy, determination and love to continue to change things for the better. You are invited to the following event.

Report: Humanitarian groups say Israel Is allowing just a fraction of aid promised under the Ceasefire deal. The U.S. must use its leverage to hold the Israeli gov. accountable & demand the full flow of aid to Palestinians in dire need.

No more bombing. No more starvation. The U.S. must use all the leverage it has to demand a permanent end to the Israeli gov's genocidal violence and siege on Gaza. The time for healing and a just, enduring peace is now.
