It feels as if we're doomed, but we have to keep resisting. There's no one to come to our rescue except us.

May the anti-ICE movement continue to spread nationwide!

That the United States is not only sanctioning such shocking inhumanity, but is also *paying* for it, is so despicable.
And that silence you hear is not one conservative "Christian" speaking out against it.

I will say this - EVERYONE with power seems to be desperately hoping that unpopularity does the work that consequences need to do

This is terrifying in America. ICE agents are showing up masked—these abductions must stop. If you’re going to detain someone, show your face, present a warrant, and proper ID. Disappearing people from their families without evidence or accountability isn’t law enforcement—it’s state-sponsored fear.

The abuser’s classic playbook is to isolate you from your friends, create a sense of helplessness, make it difficult to connect with others and force you to simply think about your survival from one day to the next. We are seeing that playbook applied to the nation as a whole.

Doing boring things to distract myself from the awfulness taking place in DC today. Boring activity #1 is teaching myself to use a Speedweave loom using my ugliest sock (it's a horrid color, but it's wool, so I'm trying to save it).

I just finished binge watching the first season of Severance. What a treat! (And yes, I was the last person on earth to see it. That's because I watched it old school on a dvd).

It's a cold day in Chicago (although it's nice that it's getting dark later each day). Dreaming of spring. This dahlia is Gitts Crazy. It was a late bloomer for me, but worth the wait.

I was gifted a boxed set of The Murderbot Diaries by Martha Wells, and I am totally hooked. So glad there are more books after these.

Loving the fact that we're past the winter solstice. Even if we don't really notice a change for a while, it already feels lighter.
