Remember, the one irrefutable thing we have on MAGA is Jan 6th - they’ve done their best to gaslight us but it’s a thorn in their side. Don’t make April 5th an equalizing point. They’ll be out to rage bait and stir up trouble. Keep it peaceful. Keep safe. They’ll be looking for examples 💪🥰

Watching the raw weeping emotion of South Koreans as we sit here in today’s USA, triggered something immediate in me. I can only imagine the utter relief of grasping democracy back from the hands of tyranny.

First starter harvest is always a special feeling. I leaf harvest rather than whole plant harvest and that way it is a continuous bounty for months on end. With chard, it can be a couple of years. In the next few weeks, there will be basketfuls of greens at a time. But Nothing will taste this good!

Had an amazing time at an intuitive @TarotArts class with @jennifermorrismagical—helped me trust my intuition. 1st time reading for someone outside family. Group was so kind. I got so excited buying new Tarot tools, I left my notebook, cards—an excuse to return! Deck by @lizhuston.bsky.social 🔮

I’ve started showing up for myself my body - at least 2x a week, I hit the treadmill for 20 min intense walk and 30 mins of yoga + a slow grazing breakfast w. Focus on macro nutrient balance, hormone support - supporting my chronic anemia, endo. 2 mths: results have been rapid, physically notable.

Do you know what IS a real danger to girls’ school sports - the 330 School shootings in 2024 - predominantly committed by white boys w. access to guns & raised w. toxic masculinity —- 11 schools impacted by the (non) Trans issue. Funny how the republicans aren’t more outraged about the real threat.

This is Elisa Rae Shupe, the first person to obtain a legally recognized non-binary gender status in the US and a veteran, was found dead from an apparent suicide by hanging atop the Syracuse Veteran's Affairs Medical Center parking garage on Monday, January 27th, 2025. See alt text for their letter
Elsa Rae Shupe’s suicide letter:

"Fuck You America!
I don’t want your hatred.
I don’t want the military decorations and medals you awarded me.
I don’t want your pension money for my distinguished military service and service-connected disabilities.
I don’t want your health care to treat the mental illnesses you caused
I don’t want more psychiatric ward commitments to keep me alive in a nation that I despise.
I don’t want to be buried in any of your state or national cemeteries for veterans and military retirees.
I don’t want to be buried anywhere on American soil.
I don’t want any military honors or ceremonies to mark my death.
I don't want my ashes to be stored on American soil.
I want my ashes or remains to be spread or buried in international waters.
I don’t want your flag anywhere near my body, remains, or ashes.
I don’t want any members of my family other than my spouse to be on the vessel that disposes of my ashes or remains.
My death is not a surrender.
My death as a member of the third gender and transgender population does not mean you won.
It solely marks the end of our association.
You are not the land of the free.
You are not a country getting made great again.
Too much demonstrated hatred throughout your existence extinguishes any claim to previous greatness.
You are a cesspool of zealots that worship a god that does not and has not ever existed.
Enjoy your new royal family and third world dictator.
I refuse to participate any further.
Have that Nazi piece of shit Elon Musk and his DOGE henchmen deduct the savings from my $93,000 of federal pensions from your bankrupt coffers.
The white man decimated and massacred the indigenous populations of the third gender on the lands now called America. It was only fitting that a white person restored it.
You cannot erase non-binary and transgender people because you give birth to more of us each day."

Americans - you do realize the rest of NATO, Europe and the commonwealth are strongly uniting to prepare for imminent war - and you’re currently not at their table. Think hard on that. Start watching global news and media. Start watching British and Canadian news easily available on your cable.

Today’s UK parliamentary question time made me weep with homesickness today. I have NEVER seen ALL sides so united, supportive and kind in the house. I wish every USA citizen would watch it and see an example of politics serving the people and serving peace. It is truly moving.

Morning vibes. Aggressive relaxation spite of my general ennui 🤣 self-enforced spiritual engagement. This might look peaceful but there’s been cussing, crying and somatic outpourings. Now time for ritual tea and the discipline of continuing to clean out my home so it serves me and brings me joy

I celebrated Imbolc by deep spring cleaning our home and doing a brutal Marie kondo. Sometimes healthy ritual and magic is in the mundane. Cleansing out that stagnant and negative energy.

The absolute external societal chaos is really not playing well alongside with my ADHD and now it’s like a vortex of chaos sucking everything in to it. Journaling is helping but January has been wild and cruel.

*Joy* is one of the weapons we have against fascism. Sure it’s hard right now, but knowing *joy* is a weapon somehow makes it more of a priority to find today. So go out and *joy* the shit out of the day! Interchangeable word options *creativity* *love* *kindness* *art*

So we know journaling is effective mental health - but how many of us actually commit to it. It can feel overwhelming or just too much demand or energy. But yesterday I showed up for myself and started to journal. The flow of the pen. The release. Woah. The regulating / somatic effect was immediate.

My self care and healing plan 1) taking my vitamins + drinking my smoothie 2) eating when I feel like it (appetite isn’t great) 3) journaling 4) prioritizing what’s really important 5) slowing down and resting 6) small little actions - and giving myself permission to do 10% of a task at a time

I’ve finally admitted I’m in autism burnout. It’s been 4 wks of Christmas, wild fires 3 miles from us. Scary pace of MAGA. Social Media saga. More wildfires. The outdoors is currently poisonous. The vision boards stuck in limbo. Admitting this now means the healing and self care can begin.

Spent yesterday turning front room into women’s gathering space - just for meditation - absolutely not for, conversing, mobilizing, planning, resisting, connecting, strengthening. Oh, sorry, thought I was on the wrong app for a minute. Whispers - It’s for all those things ;) Do you have a space?

I love this so much! At the inauguration, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson wore a distinctive collar adorned with cowrie shells, which are believed to offer protection from evil in African traditions. This choice mirrors the late Justice Ginsburg’s practice of using collars to convey a message.
