I know folks are in panic mode, but please pace yourselves. This has been coming for years - they laid the foundation in the 70s, it’s been coming in earnest since 2016, and we’ve been on a speed run since 2020.
Rest.
Fortify yourself.
Love your people.
We’ll fight again tomorrow ❤️

Voicemail Like a Timebomb by Barlow Adams
