RIPE

Gather close friends, and I’ll tell you a secret I know. Some of you already have your suspicions, I can tell.

2026 is RIPE with opportunity.

EVEN in Tennessee, Texas, Georgia. I could spend paragraphs explaining myself here, but I’d rather just speak to those who already feel this in their bones tonight—the “field” is RIPE like I’ve never seen in my life. There is a receptivity to change that I’ve only seen following major disasters. (9/11 and the 2011 tornado outbreak come to mind.)

Many of you, like me, who have hearts that still beat, have been taking a beatin’ for a while now. We’ve been re-traumatized, and that takes its toll. I spent $923 in GAS last month. First time ever. But we will not lose hope.

Allow me to put some courage in your heart today—you can have some of mine.

Too many of the “leaders” we entrusted to serve our country at the state, local, public, and even private level have burned all their bridges. And they’ve done it arrogantly and foolishly. On the record, on camera. All their cards are on the table, and they’ve burned those too. And the table.

Everything is burnt.

Charred and smoky like the scene from a house fire the dawn after.

THE GREAT NEWS IS…people actually are waking up through this. Minds actually are changing.

AND MANY OF THESE FUCKERS ARE ABOUT TO LOSE THEIR JOBS FOR A CHANGE!

My point is: Thrones are going to shake this fall. That should excite the absolute fuck out of you. It can feel terrifying and exhilarating and exhausting, but it is also really exciting to live out here on the leading edge of time and space and FEEL what’s coming our way. Because the tide is turning. So be encouraged friends.

Also, check your driver license and voter registration information to make sure your address is up to date. And make a plan to vote, and vote EARLY!

I’m excited to be a poll worker this year for the first time ever! I’ll be serving as Clerk on Election Day.

Don’t you dare let the ugliness of this present reality discourage you from believing in or acting on the future that’s about to bloom.
