It's so beautiful it looks like a dream! In my dream it's not cold. 🤣

But alas, I too feel defeated most days.

Many of the people protesting, from my perspective, are aware of their privilege and feel called to use it.

Is also important to know who are trusted allies.

It's overwhelming but I'm not going to play dead. I try to be thoughtful about what I buy, where I buy it, and when I buy. These are little statements, but all I have. Some think about fortification and protection... There are many crossover skills, supplies and equipment from backpacking.

I have no answer and feel helpless. There is one person I follow that talks about nonviolent protest, not peaceful prostest. It's about being disruptive and annoying and making it harder for the authoritarians to succeed in convincing us that they have power over us. youtu.be/76_rnKGK4ig?...

Well over 90% of the people in my social network are against what is happening, so it is so hard for me to wrap my head around. But it is undeniable. It's a stunning awakening when you hold a mirror to your own country and see something unrecognizable in the reflection.

Much hotter-than-expected US PPI inflation:
Monthly PPI inflation for December jumped to 0.5%, significantly above the consensus forecast of 0.2%.
Core PPI was even more startling, coming in at 0.7% monthly and pushing the annual core measure to 3.3% (well above the anticipated 2.9%).

Gosh,"they" want women to give birth but "they" haven't figured out what makes woman and their partners decide to raise children.

Tax payers have to buy into this too. For the single teacher with no kids, how do they feel about tax payers with no kids paying their salary? At some point we have to realize that a strong community benefits everyone.

"The six-pointed features are stars in the Milky Way. Everything else is a galaxy."
Here's another deep field image from JWST.

There's something pretty amazing hidden within it, which I'll talk about next.

But open up this image and lose yourself in this almost impossibly vast view of our Universe.

The six-pointed features are stars in the Milky Way. Everything else is a galaxy.
