As aways, you lift my spirits and give me hope! Thank you for all that you do and how you write about your ups and downs with such grace and wisdom. I recently shared one of your incredible articles ("What our bad days teach us") with many, many people in Washington state, encouraging them to follow you. With much admiration, Gail

I didn't realize just how much I needed some good news. Knowing there are good people doing the hard work and standing up to unjust ish tips the scales back in the other direction. I'm typically an optimistic person, but have been out of practice. Seeing all the bad news floating around created a tunnel vision effect and fed a sense of doom, so just, thank you for being a light in the dark and helping me (and likely others) to breathe a little easier and believe a better world is possible.

There is a typo in the paragraph talking about RFK's losses this week: "This is RFK’s second loss this week after a judge in Boston blocked ma(n)y of his changes to vaccine policies." :]

Brava! Love all this good news - it’s so nice to hear about queer wins amidst all the negativity and misinformation out there. Thanks for doing what you do. It’s much needed and made my weekend.

I have been so stressed and so overwhelmed and feeling so alone and unsupported lately and good God two trans people laughing for one minute had me ugly crying immediately

I loved this edition so much!

For my contribution of cheer: I don't have pets of my own (allergies 😞) but I got to go to the San Diego Zoo this morning, and I meet this delightfully silly caracal:
