Starting to feel human again, and am grateful for that.
Speaking of control, while some things in the USA seem as if they are beyond our control, we can still take some actions to defend our democratic systems.
Contact your elected representatives, regardless of party affiliation, and let them know how you feel about what is happening. If you are not sure what is happening, please research more than one news source. If you need suggestions, please refer to some of my previous posts.
I'm all for transparency, but audits are usually done by accountants, not coders. Think about it. Something is very wrong here.
Ask questions. Tell them you want answers. Elected representatives are just that - elected to represent the needs of the people. We have to speak up -- clearly and emphatically, because when we are too calm, or too small in numbers, we are ignored.
When we are ignored for long enough, humans who care tend to get emotional, and then we are dismissed as "crazy."
It's a delicate balancing act, but don't let that dissuade you from an attempt to let your voice be heard. Just stay calm, and do what needs to be done.
Take care of yourself. We are going to need each other.
That's all for now.
Ox,
Mari
