Trump clearly wanted to show he’s the one behind the desk after that TIME cover but it absolutely did not come across that way. When my kids were little and I wanted to play Zelda, I’d hand them an unplugged controller so they’d think they were playing the game. Same vibes.

I have tried reasoning with Trump voters in my life. If you still support this man and what he is doing… we are so, so, so past that now.

Carry in groceries, cook dinner, & set the table.
Sign school permission slips, schedule dentist appointments while hearing about my family’s day.

The world shifts and burns,
but the pieces of living refuse to stop.

So, we do what must be done
not because it makes sense,
but because life insists.

Trump is charging full speed ahead with his authoritarian agenda, dismantling our democracy in plain sight. Watching Democratic leaders play nice this week is enraging. We need bold, unflinching leadership willing to confront fascism head-on, not stand by politely as lies and hate erode our country.

we are the adaptation

no oppressor can imagine

…

we are building our stamina

we dream of the real world

we carry god, and see god, in each of our faces

your holiness is not too heavy, not for me

Hello! here to connect, disrupt/dismantle systems of oppression, & tap into the humanity that can get missed in virtual spaces. I believe in the power of stories, community, & little joys to spark change & as forms of resistance. Let’s fuck up some shit and figure out how to have fun while doing it.
