Teaching middle school science out here in the middle of nowhere, trying to shed light wherever I can. Learning to love reading again. Growing slowly, but not stopping.

I see it. I have lived it. 83 years ago, the U.S. government turned upon a group of its own citizens and residents and sent them to internment camps without due process. I was there among them. American fascism is back. It is here. It is now.

It begins to feel more difficult to trace out the constellations of my life, as the stars go out one by one. So many of the people who grounded and directed me through my childhood are gone now.

I know lots of folks don't have the energy or ability to keep working on their MAGA family, so I won't tell anyone they have to...but I had a moderate breakthrough with my mom tonight, and I'm hopeful.

Have I had my mind changed on social media? Yes - NOT by arguing with randoms, but by following experts and first hand folks who share what they do, what they think and what's going on. The change isn't binary - I used to think one thing, and suddenly now another - it's slow and additive: Learning.

Crying on my lunch break for two rural communities receiving the death sentence of school consolidation. Raging because people can't see through smooth talkers who use all the right buzzwords.

Taking a break from being worried about big, national things to worry about small, local things... I may not be able to travel to big marches or rallies...but I can call out nonsense at a board of education meeting! Now here's hoping they don't just fire me for my trouble 🤞🏻
