Retired teacher, still learning. Recovering Cookie Monster, part time fire breathing dragon, learning to embrace my inner crone. Re-wilding my garden on occupied Monacan land, one indigenous plant at a time.

They want you to feel powerless and to surrender and to let them trample everything and you are not going to let them. You are not giving up, and neither am I.
When you wear an N95 to an organizing event you are sending a signal to high risk people that:
1. I care about you
2. I understand that public health has been made into a tool of propaganda
3. I will keep you safe, even if I'm not worried for myself
4. I am willing to listen 1/3
