Today marks 1 year since I've opted not to hear the voice of T-rump. There's been maybe 3 times where a news item cuts to him & I quickly turn it off, but that's it. Take my word for it, you can still stay informed and stand strong without having to consume the pure bullshit of a mad man. #elections

SAD: Today, I encountered a student who won't apply for college financing out of fear it'll lead to family members (who gained citizenship not too long ago) getting deported.
I can't reassure them it won't happen. 😞

Like others, I fear the threat of government retribution, political vengeance and an angry right-wing mob. But I know that giving into it will only strengthen Trump and undermine the future of our democracy. Trump wants us to be scared. He wants us to give up — gradually and then suddenly.
The Choices I’ve Made
From Marc | Since the election, media figures and outlets have followed suit — each moving gradually towards obedience to Trump and then suddenly.

Interesting read by @matthewsedacca.bsky.social about how the internal story of our lives changes as we age. Autobiographical reasoning gets more sophisticated over time while the story of self gets simpler & more redemptive. I can deeply relate. #writers #identity getpocket.com/explore/item...
