I am scared for my friends, my family, my cats, my livelihood, and my ability to eat safe food. If I focus on the fear, I'll come apart. So I do what I can, send my letters, make my calls, support as strength allows, and hope that can be enough. I was built to whistle past graveyards, not dig them.

Nothing seems to take the knot outta my stomach.
This whole "lets do an Idiocracy sequel, only as a psychological thriller movie" thing is exhausting.
Together we are stronger.
Together we can resist.
Together we can survive.
But simultaneously write/create scenarios satirizing and mocking reactionary, fascist figures of our current times.
I watch, hopeful for justice.
Crooked roads end badly;
Biden says,
"Welcome home."
Dignified yet ominous,
America's fate uncertain.
I hate living in t ump country. Surrounded by those wretched flags year round.
Livelihood.
My family and our health.
Life in retirement- finances and health.
Safety in this country.
Air and water quality.
Education.
As for food, don’t eat anything raw or ultra processed.
"I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
There will be defeatists who try to diminish our hope. We’ve lost important battles but it’s not over. I hope people will follow your example. We can feel the fear and keep resisting and mitigating harm. ❤️🩹
It's my way of avoiding the news today.
Thank you for writing the books.
Currently writing my first book, a portal fantasy coming of age adventure, with a few jabs against our current political climate (and social/religious conservative extremism).
Good luck, and thank you for writing books.

But I can't promise you miracles. I'm slow, especially with my ADHD, and I'm still working up to the third chapter. So it might take some time.
