Today's act:

Buy a physical book from a local bookstore.

Off the grid, unredacted, and unmistakably human.

All ideas begin not in the intangible ether - but in flesh and blood - paper and ink - love, death and folly.

I'm at Prospero's in Kansas City. It's a sanctuary.

Today's act:

Reach out to a friend or family member who you have lost touch with.

No agenda, just let them know you are thinking about them, curious about how they are doing, and value the relationship.

Today's act of love: self-reflection.

Today, if you encounter someone different (culturally, racially, socio-economically) pay attention to your inner dialogue - are you scared, happy, confused, curious? Why?

If the day ends and you haven't met someone different, why is that? What prevented it?

Today's small act:

Read about Cesar Chavez.

Today's small act:

"Overtip" your server, delivery person, etc.

An extra $20 can make a big difference.

Support real people.

Today, offer up or give away something in good condition that you don't use or need.

Look for mutual aid groups, buy nothing groups, or just drop it on the curb.

I avoid thrift stores because of their increasing corporate culture.

No billionaires profit when we support person to person.

Today's small act is to read the bill of rights.

A small reminder of what (and who) we are fighting for...

I was pleasantly surprised by how many times it was made clear "the people" have the power.

That's us folks.

The goal of this account is to give ideas each day for ways to "move the needle" and make small steps towards a more caring and empathetic culture and resist dehumanizing forces.

“Not all of us can do great things, but we can do small things with great love.”
