Some things to remember on this monday afternoon for us Americans:
if you see ICE, say ICE. it’s not illegal unless you try to physically stop them
trans folks, if you can, stock pile your HRT and if you haven’t already update all documents with name and gender changes
make sure you have your passport and important paperwork ready to go in case of emergencies
don’t isolate, just because the world shit doesn’t mean you don’t have people who care around you.
read more, whether it be the news, fiction, nonfiction… whatever. reading helps distract but it also reflects current society and can show us signs that we should no avoid in order to prevent fascism.
help the homeless and disadvantaged
do what you can, but if your mental or physical health is going to be impacted, prioritize yourself.
it’s so important to stick together as a community and help each other as much as possible. i’d say it’s only 4 years but the future is uncertain and we don’t know if it’s going to get better or worse. As long as we have each other we will be okay. Stay safe
Rb to give gender euphoria to the person you reblogged it from
Had a dream that involved someone suggesting freezing cubes of butter as ice cubes for iced coffee as a solution for some problem. I no longer have any recollection of what problem this was supposed to solve.
Another thing I've noticed working as a children's librarian is like... kids get so Paralyzed By Choice and the adults in their lives never really register why. Like, for example, we have little scavenger hunt sheets in the children's section and when a kid completes it, they get to pick out a cute eraser from our prize basket. We also have a little toy prize chest as part of our "1000 books before Kindergarten" challenge for when kids complete 100 books--and kids will spend minutes carefully picking through everything while their parents are shooting us anxious looks like "sorry they're taking so long! I know this is silly and it's completely ridiculous that my child is taking so long to choose between a bath toy and a cube puzzle because these are cheap and arbitrary objects! Hurry up, Harper! Just pick something! You're embarrassing me!!" But in the kids' perspective, they already have so little control over what objects come into their lives, and in this case, the object represents labor and effort on their end, so of course they feel they must choose very carefully. I've always been an anxious and indecisive person, so it's striking to see how being rushed really doesn't help that and really only makes it harder for kids to figure out what they want.
