In January 2018, exactly a year after a certain inauguration, I snuggled a baby goat at a resistance meetup at a local brewery.

So far, 2025 is too short on baby goats.
Image is a photo of me, a white woman with long brown hair, standing on a patio holding a baby goat to my chest, snuggling face to face. I'm wearing a black tshirt over a white long-sleeve shirt and I'm smiling at the camera.

Week 3: We can do this.

How are you preparing your mind, heart and spirit for an onslaught of clustereffery?

What are you doing to fortify your physical mental, emotional, and psychological capacity this week?
[Image is a photo of a gorgeous (and tasty) smoked latte in a short glass tumbler. There’s about a solid inch of oatmilk foam on top with a “leaf” design poured into it. It’s covered in toasted cinnamon. My tablet is in the background on a stand with keyboard. Part of the screen is in the photo and has a text graphic I’m working on for my business page.]

The whitehouse dot gov website has been replaced with war movie-style propaganda complete with a short video with Hunger Games vibe-y music.

This is all so absurd it boggles the mind, but also gives me a reeeeally bad feeling.
[Image is a screenshot from my phone of the new White House website. Trump is pointing a finger as if at another person. I’m sure it’s meant to look like grass a cool guy pointing at his crowd but it just reminds me of a schoolyard bully pointing at someone he’s making fun of or taunting. The background is stark black so that he stands out. At the top it says “THE WHITE HOUSE” and has his name beneath that. At the bottom of him, not visible unless you see the whole photo, it says, “AMERICA IS BACK”.]

Today, I'm acutely aware of the pain my trans and nonbinary friends are in, so it seems like a good time to share this love letter AGAIN. I've shared it at least every LGBTQ+ History Month since it was published. Reading it anchors me.

[Image is an older photo of me, a white woman, with long, light brown hair pulled half back. I'm wearing a gray @transpainter work of art on a t-shirt that says, "TRANS KIDS BELONG" in bold white text surrounded by large pink flowers on a light blue background. I'm wearing a black blazer over the t-shirt, and standing with my hands on my hips. My head slightly tipped to the side and my close-mouthed smile both work together to say, "Let's do this / I've got your back / Try me," depending on the perceiver.]

Just saw the term “apocaloptimist” and felt the need to share.

Is the world falling apart? Yeah.

Is everything gonna get harder for at least a bit? Yeah?

Will we still create beauty, hope, love, connection IN SPITE of that to defy the darkness? Yeah.
Image is an old photo of two large, origami lotus flowers that my kid made. One is white and the other is watercolored shades of pink, orange, coral that the photo really doesn’t do justice, with pale green leaves. A Crayola watercolor set is open on the table next to the flowers.

Facebook is losing its mind, or its soul...

I got notifications this morning that my page could no longer be recommended.

Why?! Because FB automatically flagged my profile pic and cover photo as UNSAFE. Literally, they have a "sensitive content" warning over my pics.

1/4

I was encouraged to make a 30-second introduction reel awhile back. As I’m meeting new folks here, this might be a good way to introduce myself if it works. 😁

Sheesh. I had just two followers here yesterday when I picked up an anti-science, anti-trans troll on my only post.

I’m gonna need the rest of y’all to show me why this space is better than others.

I’m an equity-centered leadership consultant and LGBTQ+ advocate in KS. Any starter pack recs?

I guess let's kick this off with a post that let's folks know how I feel.

I will always be here to fight to make this world safer for my friends, family, and colleagues, for my former students, for my mentors and mentees, and for people I don't even know (yet).
