America won't heal in my lifetime (though it's super important we start the long journey of repairing it for future generations). But I am tickled to live to see Texas have a chance to change for the first time in a long time.

If we start now with humanitarian stuff in politics in America, the world might follow (hopefully Germany very soon!). And then there will be
Harmony and understanding
Sympathy and trust abounding
No more falsehoods or derisions
Golden living dreams of visions
Mystic crystal revelation
And the mind's true liberation
If it's not too late (middle East, climate, pollution, extinction, ...). 😔
@hacks4pancakes Now we need to find a way to flip the #5thCircuitCoutOfAppeals and take away one of the fascist's pet courts
Having school aged kids is really weird right now.
The most positive thing in the proverbial toolbox is a, "look, we're starting something now don't fuck it up" vibe.
That and common glass bottle pressure ratings.
For no reason whatsoever/just in case.
@hacks4pancakes I am glad to see a lot of change here in Texas and am hopeful for the first time in a long time.
Then I look at my counties returns and see I am still a blue dot in a sea of red but the totals of contested races are closer.
