During the worst of the pandemic, I accidentally ordered 1,000 coffee filters online instead of 100. Good thing; the pandemic is not over and I still have filters to make coffee for oh, a few more months anyway. After that, who knows?

I’m so glad I started my own newsroom. It’s been a struggle. But I am finding a lot of joy in that struggle, and a lot of kinship with our staff and community. Grateful.

Is your Senator on this list? Read these names and remember: They voted against RR workers getting one single paid sick day. My grandfather was a RR worker. The former union (newspapers) rabble rouser in me is outraged and wonders what can be done about this.

If you've ever noticed that charros look like cowboys, you've got it backwards. Mexicans/Spaniards invented the cattle drives. Rodeo is a Spanish word. Lasso is a Spanish word. A cowboy hat is just a sombrero. Most USAmerican cowboys were Mexican and/or Black.
