Who could predict we can't sleep now tonight?
& that lavender bedtime tea doesn't feel right?
When you're trapped in the belly of the beast
there's no flight
& you're forced to repeat
only fawn, freeze, or fight

He spent a good 40-odd% of the day in the new favorite spot.
& the fact that when we got settled in bed & turned off the lights, he came back to snuggle my toes like he does almost every night... Melts my heart.
Chronic pain means I can sleep restlessly, but 95% of the time he just adapts to stay π©Ά
78% to goal!
We can do thus!
In just the first two months of 2026, the US invaded one country to arrest and imprison their president (while pardoning another foreign president serving time in the U.S. for the exact same crime) and then started a war with another country, killed that countryβs leader and immediate family.

"...by tearing highways out of their innermost downtown cores or converting them to boulevards, cities can unlock billions of dollars of redevelopment potential, increase badly-needed property tax revenues, and reduce individual households' commute costs..."

Their lawlessness and terror continues so please continue to be out there looking out for your neighbors and staying safe.

He talks about how we can't generate wonder because it lives outside us; it lives in the space between us and the excess of the other, and I found that to be a beautiful articulation of how mutuality works. Later he says this gem, too, and it tied the excess of the other, of God, of creation to their generosity toward us: "The church is aiming at wonder. But what makes wonder possible is generosity."
I still think about this all the time. Amazing episode. artsreligionculture.org/episodes/201...

The regime changes the United States are forcing upon millions of people across the world cannot be separated from Sec. Rubioβs full-throated reverence of Colonialism
They are telling us exactly what theyβre doing.
It just canβt be said enough that for months the federal government waged war on the people of Minnesota, kidnapping them off the streets, driving families into hiding, and killing 2 of people. And if you cannot call that out or state that clearly, youβre not one of us. Youβre one of them.

Yes, we're all tired, and we deserve rest. But we can't let that rest harm people in the process. Hand off what you're doing and communicate so others can keep the candle lit.
We must push forward. The alternatives aren't pretty.
Big time.
Itβs impossible not to.
It has taken me & @phoenix-rights.bsky.social 3.5 years to get this far together, not counting all the effort put in solo before then!

On February 19, Adrian was taken into ICE detention, where he suffered from a psychiatric emergency and needed care. He was brought to Fairview Southdale Emergency Department to be treated for his medical condition. ICE then kidnapped Adrian from the hospital on February 26.
