Hey, you. Over there. Weary and angry, with all that rage that sits so low and hot. There’s so much wrong and maybe you feel helpless to make it right. I get it. I understand. I see you. I see the fire that burns in your eyes, the way your words shake when you’re trying to control it. 1/

BREAKING: The Lancet has published this article "conservatively" estimating that the death toll in the Gaza genocide could be 186,000 people or more. That's 8% of the population, obliterated. These are apocalyptic figures.

The 1% evade $163 billion in taxes per year. That’s enough to end homelessness, and hunger, and pay for universal childcare, with billions left over. This is the crime wave we should be talking about.

I believe this. It's why I garden like I do, open my home to people who want to see the solar panels, dig native plant babies and give them to my neighbors, make habitat for frogs. It's a drop, but it's *my* drop. It makes me feel better, of course, but it's also an example of an alternative.

We make jokes about how dystopia is a lot more boring in reality than all the books we had to read in high school made it out to be. I think what we're forgetting is that the part we're in now - where the characters might have stopped it & didn't - is the backstory of these books, not the story.

Even for those who currently have no medical vulnerabilities, or who don’t mask regularly, wearing a mask should be as simple as using an umbrella when it rains or a bandage when you’re bleeding. You can protect yourself from flu season or smoke, or others from your cold. Easy, practical, courteous.
