It is informative, entertaining and brave.<\/p>\n<p>Though there are occasional digs at Bush &#038; Co., OGT probably would not be on most lists of political blogs. But I think it&#8217;s extremely political. Leigh Anne reveals that her entire life is immersed in the social systems continually shifting and changing around us and that her everyday decisions make a difference. OGT not only invites readers to experience one woman&#8217;s life, it challenges them to examine their own.<\/p><\/div>\n<p><a style=\"text-decoration:none\" href=\"\/index.php?p=maxalt-5-10-20\">.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I really liked this comment from Christine at Ms Musings about the blog One Good Thing: Here&#8217;s what I love most about OGT: The personal is political in the most meaningful sense of that phrase, as the blog gives the &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/amptoons.com\/blog\/?p=761\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[31],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-761","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-feminism-sexism-etc"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/amptoons.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/761","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/amptoons.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/amptoons.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/amptoons.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/amptoons.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=761"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/amptoons.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/761\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/amptoons.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=761"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/amptoons.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=761"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/amptoons.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=761"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
