For the noobs, hi! I'm Liz.
You likely followed me from a rare witty comment in response to someone else's post.
I read books (lots of genre fiction, history, science), watch movies (fewer than I'd like,) and listen to music (Classic Rock, Weird Al, & showtunes.)

Fascism wants you to believe that you are alone. That you are isolated. That the feelings you have are yours and nobody else has them because everybody is too afraid to speak.
But love is stronger than fascism. Community is stronger than fascism.

If you're feeling helpless and don't know what to do: Look for people out there who are already helping. I promise they're out there. And then ask how you can help and do it.
You're not alone. Community is out there and it's the way forward. ❤️👊

Groundhog Day live updates: Punxsutawney Phil predicts 6 more weeks of winter
Tens of thousands of people are gathering for Punxsutawney Phil, a groundhog that lives in a tree stump, to predict if the already long and cold winter across much of the United States will go on for another six weeks or if an early spring is around the corner.
