What I did not expect today was to read a profound commentary about democracy wrapped up in interior design. Like you, I’ve never used the American flag to decorate, but right now, I just might. For me, the flag and the Star Spangled Banner hit differently. They stand for a constitution and a history that is deeply in jeopardy and I feel a need to reclaim what the flag has been used for over the past few years, specifically by those who mean to cause harm.
Wow. I didn’t mean to go on that tangent, but I also wanted to say that the idea of including places in the home where people fight against authoritarianism is a great one. I saw a new movement to write physical letters to representatives instead of emailing or calling. Voicemails and emails can be deleted with a click of a button, but opening letters costs man power and cannot be deleted as easily. Here’s to designating a desk for that!
Ooh maybe we sit down with the boys and get them to write letters! Griffin had an op-ed heart un in the N—R once when someone cut down a community tree. These kids think they can’t do anything. I sometimes think the same, and I am wrong.

Yes! That’s a great idea.
