I think we should be men first, and subject afterward … Law never made men a whit more just; and, by means of their respect for it, even the well-disposed are daily made the agents of injustice.

Just finished Onyx Storm. Great book. Good ending. The last chapter wasn’t anything surprising, but the penultimate chapter was fantastic. I liked hearing and seeing a certain character from the other’s point of view instead of Violet’s. Is the next one out yet?

On day one Trump's EO said we were harmful to kids. On day two, it said we were dishonorable and disloyal. On day three, it said we were unAmerican.
Transgender people have been a part of this country for centuries.
We are not going anywhere.
Do not comply with these EOs, they are not law.

I’ve got my first semi-professional photo shoot tomorrow (volunteered to take new class pictures for my son’s religious school). Rather nervous about this. Here’s hoping for the best.

Costco shareholders voted strongly against a proposal requesting a report on the risks of maintaining its diversity and inclusion initiatives, the US company said, sending a message running counter to the intense scrutiny many such corporate policies face. cnn.it/3PQdvlo

Day 2: Dare to push against dogma, get called for exile.
They're trying to intimidate us into silence.
Dr. King (remember him? Something about a day yesterday?) said that if they threaten our rights, we must be ready to "fill up the jails”-- that is, gum up the works totally.
Don't back down.
