We must all have ways to hold, release, some of the devastation and fury in these times of terror and rage.

When we do, we may have more capacity for useful action.

Because we must take action.
But we must have capacity.

Some words, and some resources:
how to face the horrors of now
feel, then do

I'm gonna say this with all the kindness in my heart: you aren't going to survive if you don't let your life have room for other things.

This is not a short term fight where we can just go 24/7 and then it will be over. We've got YEARS ahead of us. Take a break. Hydrate. Go bake something. Breathe.

Does anyone know of a Signal 101 primer resource out there?

I don't mean ones like "here are the most secure settings", I mean like "every church lady on the block has installed this app at the same time and has no idea whatsoever how to use it, here's how to do it and what settings even are"

Today is a good day to migrate your content off of Substack so you’re not trying to fight Nazis from inside a Nazi bar.

Some things for which I’m grateful.

A tool that you can use on those days when everything feels terrible, horrible, no-good horrific atrocious actually though.

Because we need you to get through this next chapter as whole as possible.

And a blessing, for you.
Gratitudes

I guess I'm finally here, despite my best efforts.

I'll get my yak-shaving shears.
