January felt like it sucked away three years of my life. Here’s to less doom scrolling in February.

“Most of the power of authoritarianism is freely given.”

A three tier charm necklace might be too much…

….but….

…I do have a bit of the too much gene.

I’m already tired of seeing the ICE response in the communities I live and work. These are valuable contributing members of society who pay their taxes and hold valuable jobs. Their lives are here. They’ve been going after schools, most of which have children that know nothing but this country.

i will say that we have never experienced anything like an administration trying to essentially freeze the activities of the entire federal government while making a series of illegal power grabs. genuinely unclear to me what kind of response, if any, these guys are generating against them

Gonna get myself an enragement ring. For a little treat.

We need to lean into our communities and lead change on a micro level if thats all we’re able to do.

It’s wild what being away from your routine does to your mental health. I had conference last week and it threw me off. That on top of the fear and uncertainty that I’m having to look at and experience along side my community.

Does the sense of impending doom ever go away?
