I learned a lot about these centers over the last weeks. Hideous. It’s basically raping the land of all its resources and leaving behind a poisoned output. The spin they put on it is outrageous.

Right?! I’m honestly surprised. I am impressed with the spine of our city council - although they likely knew they’d have a riot on their hands from the citizens here.

Watching great films with a daughter is the best. Hope she will find some healing and feel better. ❀️

The Forest Service intends to convey Oak Flat, an Apache sacred site, to Resolution Copper on August 19.

@biologicaldiversity.org, conservation allies & San Carlos Apache Tribe will be in fed court August 6 to argue for a halt to the Oak Flat Land Exchange until our lawsuits are resolved.

Same here, mindfulness helps. I’ve been doing a gratitude practice daily which is life changing. Not always easy, but so effective. I can’t be healthy and be consumed with rage anymore.

This is a hard one. I had a friend for 30 yrs that went to that dark side in 2015. There were signs it was headed that way with her and her seriously weird spouse before that tho. I admit to not looking back. It’s the relatives that hurt the worst for me. Accepting that they are in a cult is tough.

Didn’t like my cholesterol numbers so I fired my doctor. That’ll teach everyone.

My eyes are sprained from rolling them. Are there any of them that aren’t Fox News or reality show stars?

I don’t know. I’ll ask some this weekend. It was at a time that many are at work. I’m still unnerved about it.

We’ve had a very creepy experience with a solicitor lately. Ignored the no soliciting sign and aggressively banging on the door - as well as shouting out my first name. I went after them later and demanded to know their employer. They hid their faces and ran from me. Anyone else experienced this?
