Why is it the consensus a year out from an election in which the Supreme Court is actively dismantling what’s left of the VRA that no matter what happens or what they’re doing we will *still* accept their legitimacy? Even if they’re pushing people into camps? Even then resistance is unthinkable?!

I was waiting at the vet last week and an older couple came in to pick up their cat from boarding. Very typical retired Vermonters - worn jeans, plaid shirts, LL Bean fleece vests. I would've guessed they were there for a Max, Luna, Toby, Bella, Oliver, etc., but no. They were there for SHADOW LORD.

Hey. Y'all. Look at all, rebuilding our communities here, human by human, refinding friends and making new ones, out of the ashes. Resilience. Not collapse. We rebuild better. Been this way since forever. Have faith. A little. As a treat.

"Evictions are not a one-time event, either. They are known as the “scarlet E” because having an eviction filed against renters, regardless of the outcome, severely limits their ability to access safe, affordable housing in the future." www.bostonglobe.com/2023/09/29/o...

A whole lot of amazing theatre people were there, discussing making shows and seeing shows and how everything worked. I wanted to see the shows, make the shows, talk to the amazing people. And I did! Even worked with some of them. Heck, made a show I sourced from Twitter with some.

Periodic reminder that "don't speak ill of the dead" is for, like, not mentioning at her funeral that Aunt Sally was a drunk and a lousy cook. It's not for suppressing public discussion of public figures and their complicated legacies.
