Doing things--finding your team, finding your community--is magical. The feeling of helplessness is there to remind you to find your tiny corner of the world where you have that, where you can pitch in and do something.

OK Bluesky comrades, who can afford to donate at least $5 a month to @psabortionfund.bsky.social? They are an all-volunteer led abortion fund based in South Carolina. They do such good work. Will you join me as monthly subscribers? donorbox.org/support-the-... - they need a min of $10,000 a month.

Iām sure other people have already posted about how the rest of the world is also not it, but like, are you a person who looks at the people around you and decides to fight for them, to sustain for them, to build resilience with them, or are you a person who sees yourself/your family as an island?

I see all these people on Twitter pointing out that Neil Gorsuch is a plagiarist, and it will lead to exactly nothing. People need to be less addicted to identifying hypocrisy and more invested in actually winning a fight.
