Maybe corny but it was helpful for me to hear Henry Rollins saying "this is not time to be dismayed, this is punk rock time, this is what Joe Strummer trained you for... You can be thunderous in your own life, to the eight people around you. That rubs off... Goodness is viral"

my personal astrology for today:

pluto sq my mc
chiron conj my moon
uranus conj my north node
saturn conj saturn
jupiter in gemini (w my mars & venus)

i've never been paying attention to astrology when this much was going on. Will it seem like any other day or something crazy about to happen.

A lesson I have learned from surgery, shingles, chemo, etc:

Never underestimate what the human body -- and the human race -- can recover from once you remove what's harming it and treat it with patience, love, and care.

Don't ever let the current state of damage be the future you envision.

After being on this app for a few weeks I've come to see that it's not that this app is insane, it's that our country is full of people in a crash out spiral, refusing to face the hard facts and instead yelling at everything as they crash and burn. 🧵1/3

Our insurance company just wrote to us that the life saving medication our 9-year-old daughter needs to live is rejected because they decided—CONTRARY TO HER DOCTOR—that it is "Not Medically Necessary."

Her meds costs ~$200K/year. Insurance industry raked in $88 BILLION in profits last year.

I used to teach Antigone, the play. And it felt playful to teach. Today it feels more real than anything I see.

hello #astrosky. Can any of you help me find an astrologer who specializes or is especially fond of asteroid #129, antigone? I have found people who focus on #asteroidastrology, but not on Antigone. There has to be one out there, right? #Antigone #asteroid129 #astrology
