Last week I watched both directions of a busy state highway stop and wait patiently while multiple drivers corralled a loose (lost?) dog into someone’s truck, which made me cheer and then full-on weep for the humanity I’ve felt missing. So… I get it.

This week, writer @taracampbell.bsky.social reminded me that "We shouldn't have to stop being the creative people we are because of the broligarchs' inability to ever have enough. If anything, what we're doing is what makes our country worth fighting for."
She's right. Go out and make great ART.
