Wow I needed this so badly! I didn't realize the way I was treating building community like an emergency. And while it is certainly an urgent task for survival, it cannot be done without patience and care. Thank you!
I am. I'm thankful that building community has been such a consistent piece of advice for years now. I've been reading a lot since 11/5 and community continues to be the north star. I'm including your essay on a list of pieces of writing giving me clarity and comfort right now.
I trust that you were not fishing for a happy birthday but the thing is I'm deeply grateful for you, always, and this piece in particular and damnit HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ELISE!
