I’m celebrating with a small group of friends and my beloved @anarchocatfan.bsky.social, and taking time off from work this week to enjoy myself (before a long, messy stretch of work begins). I’m so grateful for this life of mine and for my community, near and far.
If you’d like to do me a solid today, I’m a bit stressed about how underfunded my political ed work with Doing Justice Collaborative is at present. You know all those workshops I organize and facilitate? Donations make those events possible, and people aren’t donating to stuff like they used to.
I’m sending so much love to everyone who cares about me today. Thank you for making my world go round for another year. Everything is a mess, but I want to keep caring and fighting alongside you all for as long as the universe will allow. May we live as freely and love as deeply as we possibly can.
As I go further into my 40s I’m holding onto the idea that if the kids are of the same opinion on a major issue while I’m going in with the opposite, there’s something I’m definitely missing.
Happy birthday (from someone just a wee bit older than you)! Yep, when I turned 40 and realized I was now older than some of my friends and family would ever be, I really had to stop and think; it changed my perspective on ageing. I've been given more time than I expected, so I want to use it well.

BUT, so so thankful you made it/are making it. The world would be less possible without your wisdom.
Happy Birthday to you! 🎊 🎂
I have had the same sentiments. Every decade is better than the last, you'll see when you hit that half century mark.
