Maybe there could be a moment when it was an invited curiosity, what names people could suggest for possible new categories ?

Maybe there could be an interesting way of funding new categories ?

Many people have this problem, since this is normal behavior for cats. My cat doesn’t do it every morning, and the times vary from 3AM to 5AM, depending on her activity the day before. I find that it...

Jennifer, I've posted this on my Facebook page and Rohnert Park Nextdoor, and hope someone who's on Santa Rosa Nextdoor will post it there, in addition to other Nextdoor sites throughout the county.

It seems more and more that the power of the people is eroding, starting with city governments all the way up to the highest level of government in our country. Officials on all levels are not held...

You posted this reply to my re-posting of the original post. I am not the moderator of The Red Pill, but I did choose it for my post a while back, because I liked what it was about, but Barry...

Please check the FEEDBACK category, since this is where Barry has moved it because it's "feedback" about Wacco. If you have any "feedback" on this post, please comment there, or start a new post...

It's a sad day in community when speech that asks for accountability is censored. I hope there is a possibility for reassessment and resolution instead. We can all learn how to shift things from the...

you bettcha- they ARE totally oblivious! i wonder if they have removed All the trees already or will they be leaving them logged on the ground, so people can come and sit on them for Earth Day. ...

I am beyond appalled that the city of Santa Rosa is scheduling its Earth Day event in Courthouse Square!!! Are they utterly oblivious??!!:hmmm:

The links all seem to concern the CAB. What I was curious about is the process that was followed by the city council before even approving the plan. Were there public meetings to present the...

The "this" I am referring to in my post is that many people, possibly most, did not know that reunifying the Square meant cutting down mature trees. The EIR does mention this but most people don't...

By the time this was actually presented to the public, at three crowded and contentious meetings, it was, clearly, already, a 'done deal'.

There are several online fundraising sites, and some take a higher percentage than others. I'm only familiar with GoFundMe, but there are others.

I will pledge $20 from my social security income. I hope to see others step up to stand up for our rights to be heard. Many small donations can make a big difference, as shown by Bernie Sanders. ...
