The underlying attempt to take away the mystery of life and diminish our power as people has further separated us from remembering & reuniting with the best of us - with our power to come together & claim the power of knowing we are not alone.

About a month ago, the Trump administration got rid of the de minimis exemption, whereby packages valued under $800 could slide in without import duties. Now there's a backlog as the government can't process all of this paperwork, leading to UPS just destroying packages

Business Insider headline reads: UPS is telling customers that their packages coming to the US are marked for destruction.

A 15 year old boy with autism went missing earlier this week

He was selling fruit with his family in Springbranch when he disappeared

They filed a missing person’s report & begged the public to help find him

Turns out he was in a Houston ICE detention facility

They kidnapped a disabled child!

Good morning, friends! Life's magic occurs in unscripted moments and in unexpected gestures of kindness. Beauty reveals itself unannounced, but only to those with an open heart, ready to receive it. Don’t wait for perfection. The extraordinary is happening right now.

BUT states having agency alone will not prevent autocracy, those states must actively and vigorously uphold democracy and rule of law, and each state is a separate case. Red states are not upholding their end very well. Many blue states can do a lot more.

Who is going to help these people? Please someone respond and take action? How can Dems in Congress allow this? How can we as people allow this? How can the courts allow this? How can governors allow this?

An abundance of elf's wood - fly agaric mushrooms in threes, twenties. Deep vermilion and papaya, wonky white windows and long sturdy stems. My sister leads me onward, each specimen placed in her mind like a bookmark for my return. We are eight once more, looking for magic.

Three staggered burnt orange toadstools with square cream patterned dots poke through a brown leafy floor. Fly agaric.

"A future president, even dumber than you, will allow Qatar, the country that harbored Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the architect of the plane attacks in NY, PA, and DC today, and whose royal family will help him escape capture by the US, to build a military base on US soil to train Qataris to fly jets."
