The witch refuses winter as a sadness. Each season sings it own sorrows. Frost-brittle field still hold their magics. The sky is still a drama of nephomantic omens. There is no lack of thresholds. I shall save my tears for the wounding of the land. – #EmilyCBanting, 1982 #WitchSky

Just finished going through interview transcripts for this project, and I was struck by a participant's recollection of how their oxygen tank was repossessed when they lost their job and lost their employer-sponsored insurance coverage. Lung cancer, post-op.

6 years today the first COVID case was identified in a man in Wuhan marking the beginning of a global pandemic that changed the world. We are way less prepared today to face another pandemic than we were back then. This fact makes me sad.

If you're not, listen to this.
Get a guitar or some drums, or a trumpet. Pick up a brush, a pencil, some clay or a welder.
Just make shit. It doesn't have to be good (eventually it will be) just make music, art or write or whatever.
It's literally never been more important.

"Hope is not blind optimism or uncritical belief in a political savior. Hope, to me, means the ability to imagine a better world is possible and then work to build it brick by brick. It is, as @prisonculture.bsky.social says, not an emotion but a discipline—one we must practice every single day."

The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse.
I'm aware of at least 2 stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email
