not here anymore.

Believe the words we can’t bare to hear.. Today is a day to feel our losses, deeply. This is it its own form of resistance — to feel — This is not despair, this is grief —. and grief demands our presence. It moves with us, through us. This is what it feels like to care and to love all that is vulnerable and at risk. This, too, is what Democracy looks like— to believe, to enlist our courage with a sustained focus toward justice for all; to continue to do the work that is ours. It is never over. We are here for the duration — the long view in the desert is the seedbed of inspiration. The revolution is ours, it isn’t what we thought it would be — but transformation comes in unexpected forms. We will meet this moment with the gifts that are ours — and we will take care of each other — and not look away — This is not the end, nor the beginning, it is the truth of our lives. Our power lies in our capacity to keep loving and engaging with this beautiful, broken world. We can no longer look for leadership beyond ourselves. If we are present. we will know what to do.
By your side. One day at a time. Here.

@woodsfern same - what a shitty way to flame out.

[casey @caseyengels]

@rafaelshimunov @thomyorke such a massive disappointment in multiple ways @thomyorke - not that you give a shit about what a lifelong fan thinks.

[casey @caseyengels]

@fuji160s exactly - the cognitive dissonance of vilifying “the other”. or the cosplay of it all coming home to roost.

[casey @caseyengels]

@calculizer @gmiddleb so true at the helsinki library as well. there was even a small performance event happening while we were there one day - such a lively and engaged community hub. go figure.

[casey @caseyengels]

@troublesometots would you be willing to share which home version you have? researching but helpful to have user experience or recommendation!

@ProfTBLittwin *this* being Hunger Strike

[casey @caseyengels]

@ProfTBLittwin this is too random - we JUST watched the music video for this today.

[casey @caseyengels]

@nilbogdotgov just keep thinking about her parents - taking this to court and having to review every excruciating detail of their daughters death.

[casey @caseyengels]

@megannn_lynne the “well actually” folks on here are really missing the point. wow.

[casey @caseyengels]

@ashen_poochy @cinnotomon the o.g. lead poisoning.

[casey @caseyengels]

@ProfTBLittwin after all of that? messy.

[casey @caseyengels]

@woodsfern the worst! all over here in VT. they also congregate in evening primrose like wild.m, by the by.

[casey @caseyengels]

@AsahLauren @joemageebtv @voxcustodes @BTVJoan @IkeBendavid @bentraverse @Emmaformayor @GovPhilScott @CulturalBunker @sevendaysvt may you have the days you deserve. and when you’re in a dark time, may no one take pics and post them online of your experience - but instead take action to support either you or the conditions that lead to this moment. the lack of compassion and empathy is astounding.

[casey @caseyengels]

@woodsfern yep. def moderate here and this is so obvious but i hadn’t considered it. OF COURSE!

[DEI Petty @marcformarc]

The Grants Pass decision is a categorical a step backwards for the country. Housing solves homelessness—fines and jails do not. This is a shameful decision that moves us away from that ask and towards a future where our solution to every problem is prison.

[casey @caseyengels]

@samdvt i definitely misread that and was nervous. 😆😂

[casey @caseyengels]

@samdvt that his plan, i am guessing (a la Project 2025)

[casey @caseyengels]

@samdvt agreed!
