She/her. Published Author & Poet. Witch. Called to serve in hospice. Learning to swing (dance). Ahem. It's a whole thing, apparently.
Right now, the savviest thing a Democratic politician can possibly do is to publicly demonstrate a willingness to violate both norms and decorum.

Tucson, Arizona today.
Original projected attendance was 3,000 people.
23,000 showed up.
Not yet! I am still considering it. But working at a nonprofit hospice has shown me that being a death companion isn't something that is really called upon in our culture yet. And trying to pay my bills and live my life might be more difficult if I solely try to be a death companion.

CONGRATS!
I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.
Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. Itโs not intellectually superior. Itโs the virus theyโre trying to infect us with. NO

"He's tricked hundreds of people with that offer. If you accept that offer and resign, he'll stiff you just like he stiffed the contractors. He doesn't have any authority to do this. Do not be fooled by this guy"
A lot of shit is hitting the fan today so Iโm just gonna throw it out there that you donโt have to internalize every single thing and itโs ok to log off and protect your heart. You donโt have to traumatize yourself with the firehouse of monstrous developments.

Opportunities are everywhere.
Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Donโt take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are ๐

Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.
