![The cover image for the latest release of Ubuntu Linux - 26.06 Resolute Raccoon - features a picture of an especially determined looking raccoon superimposed over the Ubuntu logo - a stylised depiction of three people locking arms in a circle (well that's how I see it anyway). The image is colour graded with an orange / rust tint and has the text Ubuntu 26.04 LTS [Long Term Support] RESOLUTE RACCOON](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:wc4f6v7tysxi2u3tvqh54wzx/bafkreibh7n6qgol6mlogumayvzfe2kidnjipb26sinqf5udhnbsqva23ke)
![A snapshot from a website, there is a quoted block of text that reads:
“Everyday Solidarity"
We cannot carry the entire weight of [the world], nor of the violence that tries to erase her.
We can keep showing up in small, deliberate ways. We can return to the simple actions that don't solve everything, but soften the edges of abandonment. We can build habits that keep people in view, even when institutions and headlines look away.
Advocacy, like care, is not measured in intensity, or heroism. It is measured in consistency — in what we choose to do again, and again, and again.
These are the small practices, and they are the ones that hold.
