The emperor finally realizes that he is naked in the middle of the square of his kingdom.
There’s nowhere to hide. Nowhere to go.
And no direction to fall—except straight down, hitting every sharp rock on the way.
He is in full-on Panic at Taco House mode.
Don’t get caught up in his words alone. Yes, pay attention—but more importantly, watch what he does. Watch the distractions. Watch the flailing. Pay attention to the actions meant to draw your eyes away from what’s happening behind the curtain.
Because something is happening.
The shift that many of us have felt for a long time now? It’s about to complete its full tilt. The energy has been building. It’s like the lid of one of those trash cans with the pivoting covers—you know the kind. Something heavy has been pressing down, and now the whole thing is about to flip.
You’ve felt it, haven’t you? If you’re sensitive to these kinds of shifts, I know you have.
When it flips, it may spin a few times. It’s going to get uncomfortable. Weird shit is going to go down. But it will be okay in time. You have to hold on.
Take care of yourselves. Take care of the vulnerable—disabled folks, elders, children, the ones who get hit first when systems crack.
We’re not done yet, but it’s working.
The shift is real. The pivot is near. Stay grounded. Stay human. Stay loud.
March if you can. Back up those who march if you can’t. Start where you are.
This is how we change things.
This is how we hold the line.
This is how we make it through.
