Rare portrait of actor James Stewart with Antifa founding member known only as “Harvey” (likely a pseudonym).

Harvey, a skilled clandestine operative, may still be active, since the lifespan of the Púca is unknown.

Stewart, who battled fascism in World War II, passed away in 1997.

Signs of approaching Autumn:
- dark fairies return from their summer vacations
- forest gloom takes on an orange hue
- moss awakens from slumber to devour unwary hikers
- garden gnomes sharpen their fangs
- the twig witch inflicts her pumpkin-spiced curse upon the land once more

Our trauma programming is not our "fault." Yes, recovery is our responsibility-- but realistic healing needs us to be clear & firm about the fact that we did not install this programming. Or "allow" it. Or "attract" it.

Our vulnerability to CPTSD was not due to our "weakness."
