    Saw the photo, and realized that would have been my reaction to all of it.

    If you see something that needs doing, don't wait on others to do it.

    A Congress member after the vote in the early hours of hte morning 3AM or so. No media around to grandstand for, just a guy and a bag.



    Kind of says it all, for me.

    “I was just overwhelmed with emotion,” Kim, 38, told NBC Asian America. “It’s a room that I love so much — it’s the heart of the Capitol, literally the heart of this country. It pained me so much to see it in this kind of condition.”

    So for the next hour and a half, he crouched down and filled a half dozen trash bags with debris. When he finished cleaning up the rotunda, he began working on the adjacent rooms, including the National Statuary Hall and the Capitol crypt downstairs.

    Then he returned to the House floor to debate Pennsylvania's vote count, a session that lasted until 3 a.m. By Thursday evening, he’d been awake for more than 36 hours.

    If the most heroic thing that we get out of this is somebody picking up trash then I'm going to be extremely disappointed.

    A hero to me would bring around meaningful systemic change.

    it's not the most heroic thing.

    Just a simple, human thing. It is a reminder of decency. A touchstone.

    Media - the main means of mass communication (broadcasting, publishing, and the internet) regarded collectively.

    One day you may actually research something before you open your hole but I doubt it.
