Today I learned that the actor Keegan-Michael Key had two biological half-siblings (one of whom was comic book writer Dwayne McDuffie) and Key didn't know about either of them until after both of them had died.

as a seasoned constituent of lisa murkowski let me remind folks that "voices concern" translates as "i understand you think raw corporate warfare is distasteful and that's too bad for you"

empathy without action is empty rhetoric

if harris changes our course on Gaza, it will be because movements made it impossible for her not to. join If Not Now, Uncommitted etc. to work on that...

'I will not be silent': Harris voices concern for Gaza after meeting with Netanyahu – video

The vice-president's comments on the humanitarian situation in Gaza indicate she could take a firmer tack with Israel than Joe Biden if she succeeds him

I could be (and am often) wrong but I think if candidate harris commits now to any kind of reversal on Gaza, the israel lobby will do everything it possibly can to destroy her. it’s honestly (and I hate this) smart for her to forestall a full assault from aipac and friends while she’s also battling trump. but if she doesn’t signal a change, she will also depress turnout, which she really needs to beat trump. it’s the first major statecraft test for her team, not easy at all

wish I had your optimism but I see no reason to believe she will in any way differ, in any way that matters, from Biden on Gaza

As the presidential race heats up, Vice President Kamala Harris has announced she has officially joined TikTok, and given a nod to the numerous memes that have been fuelling her campaign online so far.

“I’ve heard that recently I’ve been on the ‘For You’ page, so I thought I would get on here myself,” Harris said in the short first video posted to her TikTok account. Here’s more from @yahoonews.

Warren Elliott Safe and Reunited with Family

On Wednesday, July 24th, at approximately 8 a.m., the Placer County Sheriff's Office received a 911 text stating they were with a missing person, who was quickly identified as Warren Elliott. Mr. Elliott had been missing since Friday, July 19th. A CHP helicopter picked him up and transported him back to the command post at Homewood Mountain Resort. Mr. Elliott was greeted by cheers and clapping and was then reunited with his family, which was an emotional moment for everyone.

Mr. Elliott shared with us that he had gone out for a walk at approximately 3 p.m. on Friday, July 19th in an area he was familiar with, but when he went to walk back to the area they were camping in Rubicon Springs, he began walking in the wrong direction. He did drink water from the river and found a handful of berries to eat. From the point he was last seen, near Cadillac Hill, to the area he was found, Hell Hole Reservoir, is roughly 9 miles as the crow flies; however, he walked much further than that over the five days. Mr. Elliott was not hurt and is in good spirits.

Each day there were between 50 and 100 searchers, representing 10 agencies from across the state, we want to thank everyone who assisted. A

We also want to thank Homewood Mountain Resort who shared their facilities and helped us tremendously through this event!
