As a historian, I can certify that we are in the bad times. But bad times eventually end.
In the meantime:
• Figure out a small way to help someone
• Figure out a small way to fight back
• Figure out a small place to find joy
• Figure out a small way to grow and thrive

And do it often.

Howdy!

Busy day seeing friends. I hope you all get a chance to fill your souls.

Dance to the music, hug the person, smile at the mailman.

Sorry to hear your sinuses are misbehaving. I just have a constantly running nose.

Today I'm finding a comfy seat and reading a book. Took a few days off and I missed it!

Shhhh. I'm not ready.

What? I'm supposed to wash windows in the Fall, too? I object. If I keep my glasses off I won't know the difference.

The states in gray are the states where the governors are more afraid of Trump than they are of killing the people they were elected to represent.

In the 60-year history of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, it’s never run out of money. Here are the states suing the federal government over it.

FOOD BANK DIRECTOR: “For every meal a food bank provides, the SNAP program provides 9. There’s no way we can meet that gap. We were not built to do this.”

(@TNDemocrats are imploring @GovBillLee to fund SNAP with the billions in reserves as other states are, but he refuses)

Feeding America has branches all across the country (e.g. the Roadrunner food bank in ABQ).

World Central Kitchen is already feeding furloughed Feds in DC.

Storehouse in ABQ.

So Others Might Eat (SOME) in DC.

You can make a life-saving difference with your donation of time &/or money.

If you proclaim yourself a Christian, you need to donate to food charities NOW. Jesus fed the hungry & told his followers to do so as well.

1 in 8 Americans is about to lose access to daily food. HELP THEM.

Food banks can stretch your dollar farther than your can of beans. Give money & time.

SNAP benefits are about to stop; every dollar you give a food bank goes further with their buying benefits than cans you give.

Donate locally if you can. If you're short on money, donate your time - someone has to stock those shelves and create bags of food to hand out.

FOOD is necessary!

Inhaler is already ramped up, but it's not helping my nose. Sigh. Who designed these meat machines?

Full witch outfit is my vote!

I'm so sorry no allergist in LC.

Meredith LG @goodmer5.bsky.social · 2d

Nice costumes, dudes!

Definitely pick up your brother in a witch's hat!

Not sick, but really really snotty. I hear that's one of the features of this age. Ugh. Allergist appointment will be scheduled.

Skin on knuckle is cracked and bleeding. Love knuckle bandages.

Enjoy your tacos!

White people need to hear that, even if they don't understand it. Thank you for saying it.
