I hike & marvel at God’s trees, hills, & water. I love board games, puzzles, & RPGs. The best dance parties are house parties. I’m struggling with finding hope (US govt). My goal is to spread good energy with kindness, prayer, & love.

Hey you- go do something nice for yourself. Me? I’m going to try to get back to my book today. It’s getting dusty on that shelf. (The Dragon Reborn, in The Wheel of Time series. )

Mother Fumpers!!! Cheeto canceled the Gay Men’s Chorus concert from The Kennedy Center. 😡 The Gay Men’s Choir are amazing singers with integrity and grace. Their performances are beautiful. I want to scream.

I’m here to: share posts of hope and kindness. And to: ask you to let your trans and gay friends know you support them. An to remind you to: Breath deeply. Unclench your jaw. Fact-Check news. (And to set a timer when cooking; I almost burnt the bacon.)

I need to start on taxes. I also need to finish the laundry. And I want to finish the prep for my Dungeons & Dragons session this coming Wednesday. I guess I’ll roll for initiative to see what I do first! 🐉

It was a great day. Limited my intake of news. Ate what made me happy (birthday calories do not count). Tried new beers. Danced to live music. Hugged some of my favorite humans. Thanked God several times. Great day. (Photo from a much sunnier and warmer day at the brewery we were at)

AMA is sharing regular news videos on YouTube about the bird flu outbreak. youtube.com/@americanmed...

#ResistanceUnited #Voices4Victory Worth reading regardless of your faith tradition (or lack thereof). Dr. Mason was my pastor when I attended church in Dallas, many years ago. He founded Faith Commons as an interfaith coalition of community activists. faithcommons.org/until-the-ti...

Be positive. Find something to be grateful for. Today I’m grateful for Rachel Maddow, Elizabeth Warren, the delicious wings we made (recipe on seriouseats), and discovering surprisingly good 0-alcohol beer: Blue Moon!

Adding more music, art, and physical activity to balance against trying to stay on top of the news. My mental health is off balance. What are yinz doing for sanity?

I’ve seen a few posts about great sermons. Yes! Find a church, synagogue, temple… find a community that focuses on love. Grow community and kindness!

Yes, I was dancing at the Y in between my strength sets. I can’t help it when my favorite dance song comes on. :)

Add more positive energy to this world. Hold a door open, say please and thank you, take an extra deep breath and be patient instead of honking your car horn ( I personally need to be reminded of this) . . . When given the opportunity, be kind.

From Bishop Budde: "May God grant us all the strength and courage to honor the dignity of every human being, speak the truth in love and walk humbly with one another and our God, for the good of all the people of this nation and the world."
