The holiest day on the modern Pagan Wheel of the Year is rapidly approaching and I’m in no mood to celebrate. But I’m going to celebrate anyway. Because at Samhain – especially this Samhain – we need to remember who we are.

Two things can be true at once. We can hate gun violence, and not wish it on anyone. And, we can be without sympathy or empathy for someone who used their pulpit and influence to stoke division, glory in the suffering of others, attack our values, and fan the flames of intolerance.

Good morning, lovelies. Here is one of your periodic reminders from the friendly neighborhood witch: hope is a practice. It is a series of decisions and actions that cause an outcome in terms of outlook and mindset. Hope is a seed we plant, tend, nurture, and whose fruit we eventually harvest. (1/8)

When you plant lettuce, if it does not grow well, you dont blame the lettuce.You look for reasons it is not doing well. Blaming has no positive effect at all, nor does trying to persuade using reason and argument. That is my experience.

Here is another example, the administration doesn't care what the judicial has to say, it's a dare. "Make me! You don't have any power to enforce your rulings!"

Cory Booker has just broken Strom Thurmond's record for longest Senate filibuster ever, which stood for 68 years.

Thurmond set it objecting to the Civil Rights Act of 1957.

Booker set it arguing against authoritarianism.

May Strom's name be forgotten and his memory erased.

I learned this week that you can put our troops' lives in danger, compromise our national security, and violate the Espionage Act. And the government will do nothing.

But if you write an editorial for your school newspaper that Trump doesn't like, you will be abducted on the street and disappeared.

It was too possessive.
