If they can't keep the government open and also just keep dismantling the government can we all just consider the government irrelevant and declare ourselves a nation of sovereign citizens and run everything like a co-op?

A family member in Portland Oregon died unexpectedly and left behind a 2 year old husky who is currently on a 5 day hold in a shelter while I try to figure out a way to get her to me here in Portland Maine so that I can adopt her...without it costing All the Money.

Anyone have any ideas?

yes this timeline is a rough route. yes there are waves of strife. but behind it all lies the inertia of all things which prompted fish to trot out of the ocean and humans to gather in commune. we are driven to fill the nothing with ourselves, with LOVE. its the unconquerable wind behind our sails

I'm exhausted from screaming into the void. Every author/artist I know is exhausted. The return is always diminishing. And it's still considered to be "what works."
