Not that this matters in the grand scheme of how screwed we are going to be financially in this "transition", but not counting a 17 year old as a dependent when they are still living at home for the entirety of that year is wild. They still eat. THEY EAT A LOT. And want money for all the things.

Hey, I just wanted to say, everything you see that is going wrong, you don't have to fix it all by yourself. We are going to tell the truth, we are going to take a stand, and we are going to make sure people have what they need. And WE are going to do that together. <3

I'm starting to understand why the transcendentalists are so big on self-reliance as I watch this new govt form, but I feel that the focus should be on mutual aid and community instead. As the govt froze payments and we didn't know what would happen next, I thought, no one is starving on my watch.

Bishop Mariann Budde wrote a book entitled “How We Learn To Be Brave”, published in May 2023. I went to buy it today and it is sold out in local bookstores! I will not purchase it from Amazon so I’ll put myself on a wait list and get it when it’s back in stock, but WOW, do I love this for her!

Our flesh is afraid, but our souls are whole.

Maybe it is no accident that a president's swearing in and MLK day both fell on the same day. His spirit is with us today, reminding us, against the cacophony of chaos, of what matters. Reminding us that none of us are free until all of us are free. Its the basis of my faith. Its the basis of love.
