We’ve spent the last 2 days modifying her eating and medicine schedules so she doesn’t associate meal time with getting meds. We’ve also allowed her a few “forbidden favorite foods” (vet approved!) to get her back to looking forward to dinner time. So far it’s working. See for yourself. 😂

Some ideas about how to resist creeping authoritarianism:
- find joy in your community
- engage in mutual aid
- be sure to get enough sleep, water, and calories
- move your body in ways that please you
- support independent media and artists (and make your own!)
- use cynicism sparingly
- pets

We are about to enter an era of extreme and dangerous culture war in the United States. How do we protect our communities and work toward a cultural ceasefire? In this piece I wrote a couple months ago, I offer one possible path. wapo.st/40q1BDn
Opinion | Libraries can help end the culture wars. That’s why they’re under fire.
Nothing threatens authoritarianism like a free, quiet place to absorb a full range of information.
