Still hopeful.
Hey folks. I've been watching the world catch fire like may of us, and stumbled across this heinous action being taken by a Canadian company today.

Everything is still on fire. Despite
Your best efforts. In addition to living,

it is clear, that fire or not, you must
level up in what it means to thrive.
Right now, that means wrestling with
the truth in fact that everything is
not all your fault.

Love all the connection I am seeing these days at the community level. I honestly think that stopping to talk to that person who isn't my buddy but lives on my street is a great anti-hate strategy.

Luv seeing all the post about the consumer blackout today.
We are cogs in that machine.
But that machine needs us.
Carry on folks!

Yasssssss to all the resistance.
To people showing up!
To judges administering the law.
Democracy works when people support it.
And I'm watching good people working hard now.
And yes I'm in Canada, but we've got people giving Nazi salutes here now too.
We need to keep at it.

"You can’t take our country — and you can’t take our game," Trudeau wrote. I have to say I feel this.

This 51st State nonsense ...... grrrr.....here is what is guiding are some of my next actions.

I'll lose some of my favourites, but I'll gain knowledge that every small action has an effect.

I put my strong statement about not supporting fascism on my old Twitter account and dramatically went to shut it down and as the drum rolled…… couldn’t find my password. Sigh.

Anyone else implementing new sanity-preserving rules around social media? I’m keeping up the fight in my own ways, but also get that a flood of bad news every day, all day, is soul crushing.
February 3, 2025 at 1:25 PM
Ya, we're nice and all as Canadians. Until.
February 2, 2025 at 7:47 PM
Indeed. We consumers have such immense power.
My DEI money will be spent in DEI spaces.

This is the Ben & Jerry’s video that has folks talking and MAGA losing their shit!

We need to support @benandjerrys y’all, because we don’t ever want them to “stick to just the ice cream”. 👀

So Amazon is packing up from Quebec because 1 of the 7 warehouses wants to form a union.

Deleting my account has never felt so marvelous.

They - millionaires, oligarchs, nerdy fascists - only have power because we give it to them.

I'm getting all the feels watching Canada and Mexico send our firefighting stuff to the US because it's about the humanity and not the politics.

January 8th and we might be invaded. I'm almost out of words and still more than 20 days to go this month.

Who says January is the most boring month? I'm buckling up big time here.
