I like to create, mostly through drawing, painting, and arranging scrappy recycled bits into something like joy. I write poems. I write stories. And I as a therapist, I listen to people’s stories. And help them write their stories too.🌻

Trump just said DOGE is headed by Elon Musk?

That’s going to be awkward for the court filings in which they specifically said he wasn’t in charge.

Please.
reporters stop writing entire articles premised on the idea that musk is in charge of DOGE without also mentioning that the government has claimed in court that he’s not in charge of DOGE and that he’s not even an employee of DOGE and that he doesn’t have any decision-making authority challenge

If you’re looking for direction in these dark times and you’re a creative, go check out historian/author, Sarah Lewis.
In “The Rise: Creativity, The Gift of Failure, and The Search for Mastery,” she talks about “the power of aesthetic force” specifically in relation to injustice and societal change.

None of us can be sure what will “work.” You try multiple things and find your way in. Read some histories of the Civil Rights Movement by those who participated. They were never “sure” of what would work. Some campaigns fizzled out. But persistence, creativity, determination, and focus were key.
