Levi Coffin has inspired the name of a new project - "Levi Coffin House" where homes across the globe become a place of safety in a system much like the Underground Railroad. Designed to move people who are in imminent danger, such as Trans peeps or immigrant families, to places of permanent safety.

Happy New Year! 👏🎉

I start my new year the day after Xmas so that I can get a run up to the big day. 🙂 In 2025, know these truths:

You are seen. ❤
You are heard. ❤
You matter. ❤

I recited this out loud last night at bedtime, and for the first time in over 3 decades, I slept 6+ hours.👏🏻🙏🏻 #2025

When you take money away from vulnerable populations, they die quicker and thus are less of a drag on the rich white men in the system, right?
Musk and Ramaswamy have already identified $516 billion in government savings. It includes DRAMATIC CUTS to Veterans Affairs health care, the National Institutes of Health, Head Start, the FBI, and many other vital programs.

I've just discovered this amazing person, Kyle Cease. Such beautiful, soulful advice. Really worth 8 minutes if you're hurting.

Highly recommend these guys as a follow. They've been a saving grace for my sanity since 2016.
Well, isn’t that convenient? Musk gets named to the fake department of DOGE, and suddenly NASA’s future is up for debate—just as SpaceX is poised to cash in. Funny how “efficiency” seems to mean redirecting public funds straight into private pockets.

So happy to see @repraskin.bsky.social here!
For most of recorded history, people have lived under despots and tyrants. But Americans maintain the belief that we can govern ourselves in freedom.

No matter the twists and turns of politics, we won't let fear defeat solidarity. My interview with @slate.bsky.social:
Jamie Raskin: “We Can’t Let The Fear Paralyze Us”
Did Matt Gaetz resign just to block the release of the House ethics report?

I'm certain that [insert deity of choice] didn't have this in mind for you:

1. Victim of others or circumstances
2. Fearmonger
3. Fecklessly helpless
4. Living a fear-based life

You are as powerful as anybody else. Claim your power and your place. We're here to co-create the change together.

During my despairing meditation yesterday, God/higher self asked me,

"But, do you know who you are?"

I considered. "Well, I have a backbone of steel. Survival is one of my superpowers. Also kind, smart, strong, inclusive, and I'm pretty darn fearless."

"Good, you know who you are. Be that."

Somebody somewhere thinks a couple of efficient, worldwide pandemics will take out large, vulnerable populations who have no financial way to defend themselves. Trust me, "efficient" is the key here.

Here's Morning Joe's Mika and Joe announcing they went to visit Trump. Watch for yourself and make your own decision.

Nothing soothes a ragged soul like a little driftwood village. 😊

Good night, and may we all start to get more than a few minutes of tortured sleep. See you on the flip side. 💙

Try making a Bluesky list. So easy!

These are my personal top favorite voices on this platform, headed by the beloved @hcrichardson.bsky.social of course.

I encourage everybody to curate their own personal lists for focus and efficiency. Easily modified, can be pinned.
