I am so angry about this.
We here in Utah voted overwhelmingly to un-gerrymander our House districts. The Legislature ignored that and made the gerrymandering even worse. They were sued and lost. The judge ordered them to comply with the law. And so now they are adding two more justices to the Utah Supreme Court.
This hasn’t received nearly enough attention:
Republicans just passed a law to pack Utah’s Supreme Court after it ruled against their congressional gerrymander.
Cox could appoint two more justices before the court hears the GOP’s latest appeal to preserve their gerrymander

Weather hitting hard in Utah.

I am having a completely over-scheduled January. One of the things I am using this January to do is plan how to not be over-scheduled next January.
If I want a cozy leisurely January in 2027, I have to block that out on my calendar now and arrange my work differently.

Utah's legislative session is underway. While it can be nerve-wracking, here are some things you can do:
📌 Stay informed with the ACLU bill tracker
www.acluutah.org/legislation/...
📌 Come to our Read-In at the capitol on Feb. 13 to show our legislators just how many of us oppose censorship laws.

I just had to re-start my computer and it closed all my tabs.
I instantly feel less overwhelmed.
Note to self: sometimes keeping tabs open creates stress. You have other ways to track what is important. Some of those tabs were things that OUGHT to be let slip through the cracks.

It is an insight I got from a meme that I can no longer find. Basically Darcy is confronted, he leaves, he ponders, he realizes where he was wrong (considering himself superior) he then takes action to improve the life of the person he hurt, and doesn't expect a reward for his repair action.
