I'm a resident of the PNW, so gorgeous here, I shoot it all the time. I like laughing, great food, music, hot water, all the sensual delights, good convo, spiritual pursuit, practical application. Practicing gratitude. Stay free! Stay human!

Trump's political movement is called "populist," but that's farcical. The two South African ideologues behind it--Peter Thiel and Elon Musk--embrace a highly elitist and anti-democratic version of fascism. Look at this Peter Theel interview.

A group of people on my block have started getting neighbors together each Sunday to share opportunities for activism. Kids run in and out while the parents plot. I find it so comforting and inspiring and people should steal their model.

“What’s transpired over the last three or four days just takes it to a whole new level of cruelty and inhumanity and, frankly, a whole new level of stupidity in doing this is the most non-strategic way.” Tens of thousands of people will die as a result of this action. www.salon.com/2025/02/28/a...

This is heartening to see! The resistance is beginning. I know we are tired. I know we are fearful. But we will make ourselves heard and reclaim this country from the grip of MAGA fascism. I’ve seen the inside of barbed wire prison camps in America. We came back from that and shall overcome this.

Jan 20, 1961. A blizzard the day before. Temperatures well below freezing. Without a coat or hat, JFK gave a speech we still quote today. Robert Frost, 86, recited a poem. Steinbeck and Hemingway and Rothko were among the VIPs. A million people gathered in the cold to hear it. This is the precedent.
Kennedy speaking at his inauguration, looking young and vital.

I dropped my subscription to chatgpt yesterday. I liked it but the cost, environmentally, of looking up random stuff doesn't justify it's use, for me. I've just recently begun to appreciate how much energy this tech is using and do not want to support that.

every so often I feel compelled to point out that interlibrary loan is a goddamn miracle. If you have a library card and can wait a little while, you can have in your hands just about any book you want.* just because there’s going to be another library out there that says “Sure, we’ll send it.” 📚
