I’ve set up a recurring donation with mine. Even $5 a month can help a lot—usually way more than we, who don’t buy in bulk, could buy in equivalent.
Feeding America has a page where you can input your zip code and it'll show you all of the food banks near you overlaid on a map. If you need it, it's there. If you don't need it, think about donating money if you have it and your time if you don't.

against the tide
Even as the rip pulls you out
if you remember to not panic
You will be able to regain
the shore further down
Do not waste your strength
In futile struggle
Choose your time
when your effort will win through
Give yourself the grace
to find that moment

The places where you actually NEED grace are filthy and bloody and despairing. Grace is the last cigarette shared in the gutter, the hand of the dying being held by the stranger, the kindness done by the broken.

I was explaining to my Ukrainian colleague the phrase ‘There’s no such thing as a free lunch’. She told me the equivalent in Ukrainian is ‘The only free cheese is in the mousetrap’ - which is so much better

I’ve been thinking a lot about Murkowski’s vote. It contains, in one action, so much that defines our pathetic political moment:
Selfishness: I’m taking care of me and mine, the rest of you can pound sand;
Lack of accountability: I know the bill is bad, hopefully someone else will fix it;

Faerie road running along a dying oak root.
The mushrooms have come to take the groundlings and the woodpeckers are raising a family in the trunk.
Even in the slow decay of a once great tree, there is a blossoming of life.

Wow. Avelo airlines has covered up their logo to hide the fact that they're helping with mass deportation. Avelo's customer service number is (346) 616-9500. Feel free to give them a call and tell them how you feel about them.
😲 Guys, Avelo painted their ICE jets all white! The tail number matches. How pathetic is that? 👀

A message to the President of El Salvador: You may be following Trump’s lead—but no one gets left behind. If you choose to disrespect our country, our judges, and our Supreme Court, then it’s time for a boycott.

-The jungle never spoke to me, y’know? I crave salt. Waves. A different kind of roar. I don’t even like running across the savannah.
-Bro, stop. Let’s go. We got gazelles to glare at or whatever.

-Too late for what?
