So, HAPPY BIRTHDAY! And Merry Christmas. I hope you get to spend it with some family and friends. All the love and support ( especially for Tulea). I know what you mean too.

When something is important to you, you seem to zero in on it until the topic no longer needs your assistance. And your assistance is VERY MUCH NEEDED on the climate crisis so…no need to apologize.

However, it is also very important to surround yourself with all different loves and projects, as I’m sure you know.…[Read more]

I hope, even though everyone’s birthday this past year has been different, that it’s still filled with family and friends thanks to programs like Zoom and Skype. I saw on the calendar a few days ago that the Winter Solstice was coming up and I thought of you 🙂

Hope you’re having a great…[Read more]

We are here for you, with you and forever. That’s what I find great about Fire Drill Fridays – that I believe it’s going to be continuous.

Just wanted to say a quick thank you for introducing me to Naomi Klein’s book “On Fire: The Burning Case for a Green New Deal”. I’m loving it so far. As a Canadian I was wanting to learn more about what exactly the Green New Deal was made up of and this book is definitely helping. Fantastic! Thank you for suggesting it. I…[Read more]

And I think doing those little things helps ones self-worth and mental health far more than whom we are helping.

I’ll do a deep movie hunt and see if I can find it.

One more question (if you don’t mind) about your upcoming book. Is there any way that a Canadian can pre-order your book and still get access to the special “behind-the-scenes” video? Maybe a general/no reply email we could send the proof of purchase to from Amazon?

I’ll definitely check it out. You know, with all the reading and research you do on topics you’re passionate about and trying to learn more about – you should totally start a book club. Even just here, for your fans. Just an idea 😉

I’m very worried to hear that you’re still going to a community gym. Gloves and spray are not enough. Follow the example of any country other than your own right now.

At least I know I’m not the only one. They definitely have an odd way of approving them if not in chronological order. Anyway, sending something by real mail is a great suggestion, thanks. Do you have or know where I can find her address for things like that? I guess a fan mail P.O box or something?
