And books. Buy books from banned book lists. Used bookstores, library sales, independent bookstores are great options.
Been thinking about how to resist digital enshittification and erasure.

One thing I plan to do in my own capacity is buy physical records and CDs of my favorite artists.

Take and develop more actual photos and keep photo albums.

And yes, write down our stories and family histories.

I've been trying to post evidence that the Trump presidency may not be the worst case scenario I dread. It's been a struggle to find good news in the midst if this unfolding disaster.

In the meantime I will share positive things that have nothing to do with Trump.
