I've always been fascinated by the Great Migration, and this article is a great look at an amazing piece of art that deals with the traumas and triumphs of this mass movement of humanity.

I took a couple hours and tried to articulate what we’re trying to do. We need more sites that aren’t terrible and we need more ways to fund them.

Photo of a book page. β€œβ€¦wrong sort of wood. Everything was wrong these days. More thin. More fuzzy. No real life in anything. And the days were shorter. Mmm. Something had gone wrong with the days. They were shorter days. Mmm. Everyday took an age to go by, which was odd, because days plural went past like a stampede.”

Happy International Women's Day!

Remember, when in doubt, do as Stagecoach Mary Fields did, and either headbutt, shoot it, set it on fire, or let your horses trample it.

β€œA real war with real death & real suffering being treated like it’s a video game β€” it’s sickening.

Everyone should not have to have a direct line to elected officials in order to ensure that we are not kidnapped by the government.

It is funny to me though how all of a sudden some people who bleat on and on and on about accountability and co-governance go silent when it is in fact time to push back hard.

When politicians don't honor their promises, our work is to make them. To do that, we have to build enough power to make them. I understand why people get disappointed but this is unfortunately how things work in politics.
