🤝 Let’s Challenge Social Isolation & Loneliness

No one should feel alone. This Intergenerational Awareness Week, we’re encouraging connection, conversation, and community across all ages.

A small gesture — a chat, a visit, a message — can make a big difference. Let’s reach out, check in, and support one another.

Together, we can create a more connected and caring community. 💛

Good people are on the ground doing the work everyday.

The fascists have nothing on this, nothing of integrity and character.

All they know is greed and selfishness. And that’s why they will always lose. Just sometimes they forget they’re going to lose and they need to be reminded.

So we’re here to remind them.

If you’re not already following @heidilifeldman , start now.

NO ONE BLOOMS ALONE: The Hands That Helped Kael Rise (Based On The Book BURIED THINGS CAN STILL BLOOM- The Awakening Of Kael)

Behind every person who rises again, there are those who quietly refuse to let them fall. In Buried Things Can Still Bloom: The Awakening of Kael, Kael Morrison’s journey is not one of solitary strength but shared survival, shaped by neighbours, colleagues, advocates, and strangers who showed up when it mattered most. This post honours the unseen network that makes every bloom possible.

Last night, 120 of my fellow community members came together to talk and learn about the mom and 3 children who were kidnapped by ICE in the wee hours of Tuesday morning. As of last night, mom and the two youngest are safe in Mexico thanks to the diligence of clergy from Alaska and Mexico. The 18 year old has been moved to a detention center in Tacoma...we don't know why. They were granted asylum in 2023 and had done everything asked of them, broke no laws, top students in school, beloved my many. Mom recently married the love of her life, a US citizen. They were a happy family until...There was so much love, compassion and concern in the gathering last night. This is the first time children and a parent have been taken in our community. We have lots of plans! Here is the latest article about the family. #Alaska #FuckICE #LoveYourNeighbor #CommunityMatters https://www.alaskasnewssource.com/2026/02/21/it-was-incredibly-swift-why-an-alaska-family-was-removed-mexico-this-week-one-son-sent-tacoma-ice-facility-friday/
‘It was incredibly swift’: Why an Alaska family was removed to Mexico this week, one son sent to Tacoma ICE facility Friday

Days after a Mexican woman and her three children were taken into custody by Immigrations and Customs Enforcement in Soldotna and flown to Tijuana, Mexico, the timeline of events and process of deportation is becoming clearer.

Good Idea: Build Community in resilient spaces

https://www.joanwestenberg.com/communities-are-not-fungible/

Communities aren’t just collections of people, they’re built over time through countless small acts of trust, shared history, and daily interactions. You can’t just move everyone to a new place or recreate the same online platform and expect the same bonds to form. The real value of a community is in the relationships themselves, and once disrupted, that network of connections can’t be exactly rebuilt. Every decision that uproots people (physically or digitally) has a cost that can’t be measured.

Communities are not fungible

There's a default assumption baked into how Silicon Valley builds products, and it tracks against how urban planners redesign neighbourhoods: that communities are interchangeable, and if you "lose" one, you can manufacture a replacement; that the value of a group of people who share space and history can be captured
