The $ spent on US elections is wack. Appx 5.5 Billion (billion!!!) in 2024 races. For comparison in Canada, last elxn each party had a $30mil limit. Only 4 reached around that. Total overall was circa 172 Million (22 parties ran campaigns).

Thinking about the effects of trauma (generational as well as sudden and catastrophic) on the collective/national level…🤔 Not seeing many books that aren’t focused on the individual level (therapy literature, self-help), but there’s this - looks interesting: www.routledge.com/Systemic-Int...

First post 📝 11:35 PM, 11/12/24 - sitting in the dark in a power outage. Super blustery out. There was a gale warning for this part of the PNW. Using my remaining phone power to look around & add accounts. Grateful to Alex Winter for the tip! It's very refreshing over here! 🍹
