Powerful words from @aoc.bsky.social. America does not belong to any one race, religion, or creed. It is big enough for all of us who believe in democracy and in our Constitution and in leaving a future that is better for our kids.

22 Niagara Falls. #FortErie #Dusk #Transit #Photography

A Niagara Transit Route 22 bus pulls into the absolute worst bus stop I've ever used behind the Fort Erie Town Hall (closed) Leisure Centre/Arena (closed), seniors home (Get outta here, kid!), and a potential wait of up to an hour before your bus to The Falls shows up. Not ideal on a freezing day. Pretty clouds, though!

You don’t actually have to share whatever nonsense Elon Musk is saying on any given day. You can of course but you don’t have to. The people what want to know what he is up to follow him. The rest of us don’t.
