I am reading Cosmic Music: The Life, Art, and Transcendence of Alice Coltrane. So, I went to Harp Center to see the author, Andy Beta, speak alongside harpist, Radha Botofasina, who spun some rich stories about Alice. Then, Radha played harp. What a lovely afternoon!
A recent survey found that 92% of U.S. adults have delayed or avoided medical care due to high costs. Meanwhile, a new study from Yale estimates that Medicare for All would save over 114,000 lives and $1 trillion a year. If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have universal healthcare.

Harrison Ford speaks about Trump: "I don’t know of a greater criminal in history. He has no policies, only whims. That terrifies me. Ignorance, arrogance, lies, betrayal. Trump knows what he is doing... He is amassing a fortune while the world is going to hell." 🎯💯👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏💙😎

Posting isn't enough to take care of our problem, is it?

Saw The Invite, today, at the Writers Guild Theater. Terrific film!.
