Thanks for posting this, Sarah. Good to hear these positive words right now, here on the PNW's Olympic Peninsula, as the polls are starting to close elsewhere (we're the last but we're blue here). We have mail-in voting and have for years, but we drive to our county seat in Port Townsend with its old-fashioned courthouse and drop the ballots into the ballot box. I've never missed an election, love to vote, but this year feels the most consequential in maybe since the year Lincoln was elected.
Yes, Sarah. So hard to know how to process this immense loss of hope and joy and that sufficient people in our country voted for racism, control over women's bodies, the burning of the planet, and the control by oligarchs. Tears in the eyes are a start. As many as we need. Sending love and compassion.
Love to you, dear one. <3
wishing you the same, my friend 💗

thanks Kirie, I’m reading your text this morning with tears in my eyes. Currently at a loss for words ~ I am ill.

right, terrifyingly true.
