Grounded and surrounded. Community Communication and Connection. This is what we crave. This is what you facilitate with your amazing uniqueness intellect compassion and grace 🤙🥰
Thanks for writing this. It’s strange. We notice slight differences in the people we know & love but don’t quite understand what’s going on. Like it’s not normal to randomly insert ‘immigration’ into conversations or to text a black emoji 👍🏾 bc you think it’s funny when you’re a 58yo white guy 🤦♀️ I definitely thought I was going crazy, wanting to shake sense into ppl😑 having to be the mask police at work 😷 blahblah. Thankful to you & others that have helped us understand just what we’re witnessing here. ❤️🩹
Jim- I went to follow you on Mastadon and someone had already taken my emails and user name on Twitter. By the way., THANK YOU for what you do. It is greatly appreciated.
Please feel free to personally email me and I'll give you whatever info I have.
I feel everything you've written here. Thank you for the validation and encouragement! I'm making the necessary adjustments to survive this. If this is the new reality, so be it. I'm here for it. I'm up to the challenge. I'm making plans to educate in a new way to create greater numbers of democracy loving citizens. There have been losses already, and will likely be more, but I won't dwell on that, but rather focus on the future. We CAN do this together. 🇺🇸
Thanks for this, Jim. Very helpful. I, like so many others, have been struggling a bit lately with anxiety and other stress-induced physical symptoms. All this chaos seems surreal and disorienting at times, yet it is, sadly, all too real...Your insightful words are much appreciated.
just a fabulous post, Jim. reminds me of Rich Logis in TNR describing trauma as experienced *and* inflicted. those using trauma as a weapon are the deepest form of evil. folks lost to maga cult are victims too—they just don't know it yet. highly recommended if you haven't seen it already: https://newrepublic.com/article/168110/gop-illiberalism-democracy-2022-election
Very tough day. Feeling every word of this❤️ love you hon.
THERE IS NO DARKNESS WITHOUT AN END

The trauma has been relentless. Thanks for speaking to this.
