Small amounts of resistance include finding queer joy, tending to the land, and continuing to build ourselves up.

some Native elders could get ICE raided too and we're not talking about that (for insight, some were only on census & don't even have their birth certificate since we only got citizenship in 1924 & many weren't enrolled until 1940/50s - that's how recent we become 'legal' instead of 'illegal' here)

The stress was too much today.
I’ve been burning a protection candle all day.
Did some self care working on the farm, tending to the land and animals here. I’m reminded of the Trump glad we found on the property when we moved here… let’s not go back.

Just finished reading (audio) my first book since my TBI.
The surprise queer discourse was lovely, though hate crimes were eerily relevant to today.
