To that 1% of voters, a sufficient margin to deliver a Harris presidency had you gone Dem, this is what your throw-away protest vote has wrought. We could have worked with her on the issue, something that will never happen with dump. Don't you dare claim to care about Palestinians!

Witches as a represention of the oppressed. Speaking truth and refusing to obey, feared and hated by those in authority. Who else will lead a Resistance?

This piece evokes an emotion I haven't felt in dcecades. It's the power of words! Wondering if it's time for me to lay down some words to describe these new feelings. Would anyone be interested in brief essays from Desert Crone?

So far, so good--except ONE thing. How can I ban cartoon images from my feed? I think they're called Manga. This Crone does NOT want teeny bopper characters wasting my precious, limited life energy.

DesertCrone here. Please help me learn this platform and find value in it. At this stage in my long life, I'm kinda overwhelmed with the many social media we're supposed to manage. Why is this one worth my time and energy? How will it change the world (with my participation)?
