fortify inside
why spiritual practice matters during the rising authoritarian tide
New:
Why practices to connect us with our own humanity, each other, & perhaps something bigger, really matter nowβ
And can help keep us more whole, less responding on their terms & more on our own, more making choices as the people we wish to be.
Practical tips & bigger picture here:

I've seen some poo poohing on calling govt reps.
Listen. Most of these chucklefucks are not true believers in anything but their own enrichment
And they care about that job.
It cannot be the only thing we do, but it is not a useless thing, at all.
People who take the time to call and bitch?

The word "systemic" is on the banned list, so if I study systemic inflammation & health, flagged. If I study political science, flagged. If I study trauma, flagged. Keep in mind that the largest mental health provider in the country is the Veteran's Administration, but we can't study trauma now?

A difference of opinion is which beer or country is better. A difference of values is whether one human has more value and right to exist with dignity.
I don't end relationships over differences of opinion. I do choose to not surround myself with those whose values do not match mine.

Post by Charlotte Clymer:
Every transphobic argument can basically be boiled down to: "I actually don't know the science at all or have a good argument here, but trans people challenge my long held view of the world and it's very uncomfortable and everyone should be expected to move around my discomfort."
Thisβ¦this is it. In a nutshell, yes.

The real trap here is that the Republicans have made defending civil rights seem like a frivolous thing and a whole lot of liberals are falling in line. Even if it was a culture war, so what? This would be a war worth fighting. What are we even doing here, people? Get it together.

Except of course it was never "gay people" or "drag queens" or "trans people," or whoevertheeff just trying to live their lives, it was child abusers who held and maintained their power in the community, the people who had always been doing those horrors. Except now we insist on naming them.
