Excellent! Great ideas, some of which I have done. Those so called “christians” have no say over my body and they can f*ck off

Hope we can get back to the "love thy neighbor" part of the philosophy someday

Thanks, Rey, for writing. I greatly appreciate your gentle style of offering ideas without any assumptions about what anyone else "should" do. I'm still feeling frozen in fear, doing my best not to isolate (as is my tendency), and trying to focus on intentionally connecting with my people. I'm finding, at least for myself, that the more impossible the situation seems, the more important it is for me to collaborate and connect. We are interdependent. May we continue in our resistance and work for liberation!

Thanks so much for reading and commenting, LC. Collaborating and connecting feels like a great focus to me. I'm working on that also. I find the fear and stress is sinking into my body and making me feel ill. Communication and being able to share that externally also helps release it from my body. I appreciate you and your support of our community. Thank you!

This is a fab list. Thank you for your thoughtfulness. I’ve done most of these things. Kind of preparing to leave the country.
