The Wolf(man) at our Door
I've been wanting to write all week, some analysis of the current situation, maybe something inspiring and helpful around organizing and orienting ourselves, but I've only really been able to do so on bluesky, thoughts in tiny bursts, with immediate feedback loops of endorphins and positivity.
