Urbanism and environmental hobbyist. Midwest soccer mom advocating for healthier communities.
I’m not generally one to jump on conspiracy but from the level and consistency of the right (fringe, mainstream and politicians) now saying they’re going to take violent revenge Ive real doubts the shooter was on the left.

Feels like a lot of the ways I’m trying to make things better (personal, family, friendships, community) aren’t working. It’d be okay but I don’t see what path I’m suppose to take :/ I’m tired boss.

This is part of what climate collapse looks like - seemingly beautiful day out, mild temperatures, low humidity but can’t actually go out too long due to unhealthy air from faraway wildfires. Kid comes home from an otherwise nice day at camp with a headache. Evening plans moved indoors.

I’m ready for meteorologists to revolt. We’ve got f* all data from NOAA, we don’t know what will happen and we’re pissed. Bonus if they do it live on air.

I’d love to simply celebrate an Indigenous Peoples’ Day but I believe it’s important to specifically celebrate the idea of F**k Columbus. I will be handing out free cannolis.
“I am hereby reinstating Columbus Day”🤡

Another week of awful news, another week of me not figuring out what to do about it :/

I already protest, canvass, write/call lawmakers, boycott everything under the sun. It’s just not enough.

The video the White House posted showing off chains for “illegal immigrant” flights is dehumanizing Nazi shit. There was a straight line between where they started and here and that line keeps going to gas chambers.

This moment feels like it calls for something big. And despite all my obsessing on these events & anticipating well in advance it was going to happen, I’m at a loss on what to actually do. Feels like nothing meaningful is presenting itself. I was already calling reps, protesting and canvassing.

I absolutely won’t be flying any time soon. Not until this nonsense is all resolved.

Deleted Google Maps. This Gulf of America stuff is nonsense

I’ve been in bed most of the week with the flu so I’ve binged nearly all of Ted Lasso. And….i don’t love it. Feels wrong, feels like I should. But I don’t.

I’ve been told I have a “problem with authority”. I view that with the same pride today as I did when I was told that in middle school. Looks like it’s my time to shine.

It’s time to hunker down and do the work. The real work. Because it’s here and it’s happening. Assume all bureaucracy is or will fail. Have a plan for money, safe places to go, food. Create networks that offer food, medicine, shelter, logistics. You are on the list, just a matter of how far down.

The rich finding out that there comes a point during collapse that their money no longer matters.
“Will pay any amount.”

Feels like one of those futile pleas we’re going to hear from wealthy people more and more in the era of climate change.

Picked up The Phantom Tollbooth. It’s an absolute delight.

The whole thing is a banger but a chapter that really stood out is the one on the city of Reality, which completely disappeared after people no longer looked at anything. precisely like what’s happened to our car-centric cities…

Started on frugaltok and seriously considering not spending money outside of food/housing/transport for next few months. As if I needed another way for folks to think I’m weird.

Walking through a bookstore (or library) makes me wish I had a thousand lifetimes.

No other place remotely makes me feel the same. Quite a few make me feel the opposite.

Whenever I get down I need to remind myself to go to the bookstore.

“That Christmas” on Netflix was a delight. Fabulous job of building multiple stories with lovable characters, realistic kid dialogue, and a flock of turkeys (a Madison fav).

Threw in multiple mentions of climate change which I’ll take anything that helps normalize talking about it.

Loved it.

I think about systems change far more than is healthy but with personal connections to UHG and now a Madison school shooting, things feel very close to home the last few weeks. I’ve never wanted to hibernate for winter more than I do right now.

It should just be the facts and the work speak for themselves, right? Right!?
