The American world is an absolute trash fire right now, but my personal journey towards getting back to paying all bills and eating food more often than is survivably-required is progressing.
There’s still a whole lotta work to do, and the fact that the news is filled with such despair-worthy events doesn’t help.
So, if you are in a relatively safe place, consider helping those who have need. There are too many people out there that are looking to demonize anyone that doesn’t fit a narrow set of guidelines of who is “appropriate” or not, or fit their “religious ideals” or not, or even just targeting those who upset them, it’s demoralizing at best, and can cost some their everything. Those who stand to lose at this overzealous attempts to make things great again, those people need help, support, real allies, not just those who will mouth the words.
As things continue to deteriorate (with the most recent being federal funding being cast into disarray and police actions happening all over the place and more than a few preventable disasters happening,) there will be more people who need those of us who can do something to do something.
To look at it another way – those who have helped me climb up and out of the employment/economic hole I fell into, and continue to help me, are more valuable than everything.
To quote Red Green, which might be considered heretical/anti-something in my country now, “Remember, I’m pullin’ for ya. We’re all in this together.”
Thanks for reading.
Skåll!!!
