Billionaires Don’t Love You

Posted on by Jeanne Casteen, Secular AZ Executive Director

Oy vey, Secular Fam, I’m tired! It may be the fact that I only got about five hours of sleep last night, or it may be because of [gestures broadly] all of this…

How are you doing? Lately I’ve realized that I’m falling into two states of being: lean and lift. When I’m in “lean mode” it means I need to lean on others. Like, I’m barely surviving and I need to lean on my friends and loved ones. When I’m in “lift mode” it means that I’m doing OK and I can lift others up who may be experiencing “lean mode” in their own lives.

All this to say: we are living through a slow coup where pimply-faced dudebros and an unchecked billionaire are destroying our government institutions and causing a constitutional crisis.

I didn’t think anyone could repulse me more than the Felon-in-Chief, but here we are.
