I wanted to share my experiences from my church service today. I'm a newer Unitarian Universalist & I have never met a more welcoming, supportive, & socially aware community.
I can't guarantee it's the same everywhere, but if you have a local UU congregation, check it out.

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.
Wired is dropping paywalls for FOIA-based reporting. Others should follow
As the administration does its best to hide public records from the public, Wired magazine is stepping up to help stem the secrecy

How I feel every morning telling people about the fascist coup currently underway but no one wants to talk about it because they don't want to hear about news or politics right now.

Just a big FYI to broadcast: when you go to the bottom there's a box that asks if the page was helpful. Click no and you get a "why not" box you can fill in to your heart's content up to 500 characters. (I did).
It'd be a pity if that page got besieged with comments

I haven't been a very pleasant person to be around, at least at work, so I will be spending more time with my dog and make sure I actually let myself sleep through the whole night.
I can make time for myself while also doing what I need to about, y'know, everything else

It's a lot.
Every day, new onslaughts in so many different spheres. It's hard to keep up, let alone act. Simply being a patriotic American today feels like being an epidemiologist in the early days of the pandemic.
Do what you can—then be gentle with yourself. Take time. You need your strength.

2 rallies, 2 days in a row (DC then Annapolis) by myself so I was debating on skipping this one unless I had someone to go with.
But no. I need to keep up the momentum, I need to keep going. I can take a break later.

The free speech™️ people want the government to retaliate against people for political speech. This is literally what the first amendment is designed to protect against.
They never actually cared about free speech, they just wanted a platform to silence others.
