Still here. Just lurkish. Making the effort to be fueled more than righteous anger.

The season of Lent feels like a good time to regain a discipline of intentional and appreciated beauty.

What little thing did you see or hear today that revealed something lovely rising among the ashes?

What a freaking nightmare.
Breaking news: The White House budget office is ordering a pause to all grants and loans disbursed by the federal government, according to an internal memo sent to agencies Monday, creating significant confusion across Washington.

What. Linda. Said.
In all likelihood, if you use public bathrooms, you have shared them with trans people plenty of times, and nothing has happened, and you haven’t even known, because you don’t interrogate people who are just trying to use the restroom in peace, which is as it should be.
