It's Mental Illness Awareness week! It can be scary to admit to anxiety, depression, intrusive thoughts, anger, etc., but these are also common stress responses. Don't let them take over & make you suffer needlessly. Talk to someone - you can start with your primary care doc if you have one.

Huge, huge swathes of *Trump voters* will effectively have no health care available except for emergency ER.

It is simultaneously a) the worst way to maintain public health and b) the most *expensive* way to do it.

Idiocy from moral degenerates. That's our country now.

Under the cover of night, Trump's ICE agents unlawfully stormed & terrorized an apartment complex at South Shore in Chicago.

Young children zip tied, homes ransacked, entire families & US citizens forced into U-Hauls.

Chicago Sun-Times @chicago.suntimes.com · 7d

“I asked [agents] why they were holding me if I was an American citizen, and they said I had to wait until they looked me up,” Johnson said. “I asked if they had a warrant, and I asked for a lawyer. They never brought one.”

Massive immigration raid on Chicago apartment building leaves residents reeling: 'I feel defeated'

The Department of Homeland Security said federal agents with Border Patrol, the FBI and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives arrested 37 people in the raid.

"Then loudly cried the bold Sir Bedivere:
"Ah! my Lord Arthur, whither shall I go?
Where shall I hide my forehead and my eyes?
For now I see the true old times are dead,
When every morning brought a noble chance,
And every chance brought out a noble knight."

I found myself on their straw hillsides, citron and butter-colored, and was happy, and why not? Are not the difficult labors of our lives full of dark hours?
And what has consciousness come to anyway, so far, that is better than these light-filled bodies?
