They’ve erased historical contributions by everyone except white men
They’ve dismantled the entire federal government
They’ve illegally detained & deported countless innocent people
They’ve arrested 5 Democratic lawmakers
Insurrectionists are state-sanctioned terrorists
please, wake up.

When you’re chronically ill, learning to rest is crucial.
It’s also hard to do.
Ableism is so entrenched in our society that we are conditioned to believe it’s wrong to slow down. A failing. Weakness.
It’s not wrong. It’s necessary.
If you don’t heed your body’s warnings, it will force the issue

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office.
Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc.
Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Interesting: the State Department’s procurement forecast detailing a $400 million order for "armored Tesla" has now been edited to "armored electric vehicles." The document shows the edit was made tonight at 9:12 p.m. -- after it was highlighted in reports

USAID Lifesaving Aid Remains Halted Despite Rubio’s Promise
A new directive puts further exemptions on hold. Aid workers also say the U.S. government has made it impossible to pay partners around the world.
Even though Rubio promised life-saving aid wouldn't be interrupted, it has essentially been halted worldwide, interrupting HIV and TB treatment and threatening millions of lives. People are dying today because of these chaotic, inconsistent stop work orders. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/12/u...

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.
Opportunities are everywhere.
Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

Disabled people are among the VERY FIRST people that are directly targeted by Nazis. And we are one of the ways that they get the ball rolling on other marginalized groups- by creating policies that CAUSE disabilities among them so they get whittled down faster.

With the following around the edges: Let love, rooted in interconnectednem, guide your words and actions. Do not hide or deny your grief. Feel and release it all. Do not let it lodge in your body. Grieve fully.

A 90 lb grey and white wolfish dog is curled up on a human's legs.
My step kids have committed to only bringing me furry grandchildren for the foreseeable future. I am okay with that. This is my first grand-dog, Shoba. He does not understand that he's 90 lbs, nor does personal space mean anything to him.

Open Door Night is back up and running. We have also started having our meal shared with the choir and a lecture group who are using the church building at the same time. On the other side of the building, the Marshallese church holds a service. This is community.
