Coach GowronThere are days when it seems there is no hope, that the world is falling into an abyss of injustice and despair. Do not let those days end your resolve. Rather let them strengthen your drive to overcome, to undo those wrongs, to stand on the righteous side of history.

Sharonbw stands with Minnesota@coachgowron I need this needlepointed on a pillow.

TransitBiker@coachgowron there is an unofficial network of very informed and passionate people all over this country and all over the world. We can repel fascism, and we can do the things that we need to do to make this world just and sustainable.
Tom CapuderThat's all well and good, except that the planet is on its way to overheating, and tipping points are being approached and passed with no global will to address the problem. The "don't look up" mentality will destroy us. Our children will live in a hellscape and our grandchildren may not survive.
There is no way for individuals to effect mitigation of the crisis. It's up to the world's governments, which have utterly failed till now.
Depressed and despairing? That's a normal reaction. Add angry, too.
