On Saturday morning, the @halifaxexaminer.ca will publish the first of an enormous series I've been working on for six months. This is probably the most intensely researched work I've ever done. It also is the first time I've been truly happy about writing in many years.

I'm blessed to be in regular communication and space with other activists and organizers but I know that's not true for everyone. So I am holding the monthly space in case others might need/want it. www.eventbrite.com/e/1215881607...

I can’t control much of what’s happening in the world but I can make a really good meal plan that uses up things we already have in the pantry

Can you all PLEASE stop posting on what Kanye West does? Especially not to share his website and imagery. Why do we need to know? He's not worth our attention.

Here's the first 3 hand stitching projects. Jever took a quilting course, cody cooke parrot's "No Masters, No Rulers" holds true, it's improvisational quilting ahoy. I exp great joy and satisfaction from this practice. 60% of the sewing happens in public places, + I get to chat to ppl about art.

I’m a part time librarian and I just want to echo what I’ve seen other librarians say recently: there is a HUGE uptick in requests for social justice, climate justice, abolition, history, etc books and I just want to say nobody is giving up the fight. If anything people are fighting harder #library

If you are feeling overwhelmed, it makes perfect sense. I want to once again offer that it's so much better to immerse yourself in only one or two things. Follow the news about just those focus areas. Importantly find concrete small actions to take in those specific areas. Key is consistency.

I understand the desire not to panic. And Trump will not be able to do everything he’s trying to do. But it’s not 2016. It’s clear they’re far more capable this time. The only way to prevent things is to take very seriously that he absolutely could succeed.
