Dear world,

Most of us did not vote for this regime. Not even a third of our country in fact.

I'm filled with #gratitude that so many are FINALLY ready to #act!

We the people, dammit!

Hundreds of thousands of Americans around the country are showing up for democracy today and standing against Trump and Musk’s reckless agenda!

After getting some rest, I am in awe of everyone who continues to lift their voice and speak out. This is a moment for our country, and we must make a choice about the America we want to be.

If you want to fight fascism? Wear a mask.

If you want to show solidarity with disabled people? Wear a mask.

If you want to protect your own health? Wear a mask.

If you recognize that no one is coming to save us? Wear a mask.

My ultimate guide to respirators:
We’re Witnessing the Fall of Public Health… and Your Best Tool is a Mask
Measles in Texas, bird flu in Louisiana, tuberculosis in Kansas and Covid everywhere. Public health has been dying a slow death for years, we can’t count on it anymore. What can we count on? A mask!

I puzzle a lot about #language and how it affects our #identity and how we view the world around us. Also about the #brain and why #humans have evolved to be seemingly (but not really) quite different from other mammals.

We have the ability to #shift #perception by choosing words carefully.

Cool

I finished painting my owls! Remember to do things for the joy of doing them. Joy is resistance.

(Of course also call your elected officials).

My 3 yo likes to use "you're not getting presents at Christmas" as a threat if she doesn't like what she hears you say.

I'm currently listening to her 5 yo sister explain that "presents aren't about being good or bad, they're about giving to other people."

My heart is full.

The 5Calls app makes contacting your elected officials easy. If you aren't sure what to say, they have a script based on which issue you choose. Please make calls every day. It matters and make more impact than emails.
