Veils are heavy for me today… “Sometimes the mountain is hidden from me in veils of cloud, sometimes I am hidden from the mountain in veils of inattention, apathy, fatigue…” (the rest is below) ~ Witness, Denise Levertov

I am finding encouragement (despite myself!) in poetry, sunshine, and birdsong today and feeling very grateful. “One of the virtues of being very young is that you don't let the facts get in the way of your imagination.” ~ Sam Levenson

I just finished reading a newsletter from this gifted poet and it was just what I needed. Excerpt: “Not just as individuals, but collectively. Imagination isn’t an escape; it’s an act of liberation, a door flung open to something wildly new.” Andrea Gibson

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

If you’re not confirmed by the Senate then you have no business meddling in the lives of MILLIONS of Americans We are suing DOGE for violating the constitution & illegally seizing power I’ll discuss tonight @ 8PM ET on @insidewithpsaki.msnbc.com 👇 statedemocracydefenders.org/fund/new-law...

Letters went out to federal workers this morning stating they were fired due to poor performance. However, all employees had been rated as “exceptional” performers by their supervisors. Please keep these records and pursue wrongful termination claims. Let the lawsuits begin.

Couldn’t capture the way the snow sparkled on these wonderful trees. Their steady presence and beauty help me every day. “Continue to be who and how you are, to astonish a mean world with your acts of kindness.” Maya Angelous

Grateful for Dan Rather’s Steady and this reason to smile in the midst of all the madness.

“We’re not going anywhere. What’s more: we’re expanding.” Nearly a dozen of Minnesota’s foremost experts on gender-affirming care collaborated on this beautiful op-ed in today’s Strib. No paywall.
