The pro-palestine protests have been a beacon of light for me lately (and China doing forest restoration). What is keeping your hope alive?

      This is totally projection, but my little one’s current thing is to make little houses for her toy figurines out of magnatiles…she’s literally providing them with free housing and ensuring they’re well furnished…”Neal needs a house, I’m going to make it for him” gaddafi-happy

      My kids really do recharge my batteries. I always do a "big hug" with my oldest (3 1/2) before we get into bedtime stories, we count to 20 and then flop on the bed. Last night, she started giving me silly smooches every other number. It was funny, it tickled, so I couldn't help but laugh, which only made her laugh more. Just a pure moment of joy at the end of the night.
