  • It is becoming increasingly clear to me that big organizations will not save us. Governments are corruptible. Corporations follow the money and little else. That does not mean we are lost, though. It means we are going to have to do this ourselves. And we can.

    Take care of yourself. Take care of those near you. Network with other good people as much as you can. Give help and receive help. Person to person is how we’re going to get through this.







  • That hurt. Reading her talking about a suicide plan hurt a lot. I recognize some of that pain. I’ve been carrying my own since the election. I can hear an echo of myself. “A few years of joy after finding myself and now they’re trying to take it all away.” I wish I could help. I reached out on Bluesky but I wish I could do more. I can’t not think about it. I know it’s going to get worse. I know I’m going to lose siblings in the near future, many of whom I will never meet. I know that list of names on TDOR is just going to get longer. But I refuse to let myself become numb to it. If grief is the only way I can love, I will do it. Until it’s time for someone to say my name.
