I’m trying hard to not panic. I can’t get into my online banking portal. Please be something mundane and dumb.

For too long people have ignored their gut feelings. That pit in the stomach of Americans regarding TikTok, that’s the sign it’s no longer safe. We cannot go back but must forge ahead building community. Communicating and learning from peers is an act of defiance. Stand together.

Is it safe to come into the out now?

I woke up in a world that feels even more unsteady than yesterday. Struggling to find my balance. It is with intention I am pausing and seeking beauty in this dark moment.

Some thoughts on the TikTok Ban. Finding community and next steps. What are your Micro Acts?
