Bette members—please register for our Happy Hour, 9 am Pacific, today, Christmas Eve, as our community comes together to reflect on the year with special guests

***Bette members will find the registration link below the paywall. To join our community Speakeasy and Happy Hour events, please take out a membership and support independent investigative journalism in a time of grave deception.***

Bette’s Calendar at a glance — next event begins in an hour:

• Tuesday, Dec. 24, 9 am PT — Bette’s Christmas Eve Happy Hour with special guests

• Sunday, Jan. 12, 4 pm PT — Author Dr. Nancy MacLean joins Bette’s Speakeasy to discuss US Resistance efforts and her updated version of Democracy In Chains.

Each event is open to all levels of membership. To join our Founder’s Day events, please upgrade your subscription to Founding Member — you can choose any amount above a full annual membership.

I spent election night with a veteran activist who shared with me a Dalton Trumbo story that served as a reminder that whatever we are going through we still need to have a happy life.

I am looking so forward to seeing Bette members today at our weekly Happy Hour — note time: 9 am Pacific, noon Eastern. Just a quick check-in with special guests to wish everyone a beautiful holiday.

As I wrote last week, there is love among these ruins. We just need to know where to look.

****New members: you will find registration links for community events by scrolling all the way to the bottom below the paywall. I often update our community with information and event details on these invitations, but if you just want to register, always simply scroll to the very bottom of post.

Look forward to see many of you today, Tuesday, and for those who will be busy elfin’ around, hope you experience much love and joy this season.

Love, Among the Ruins

I believe it’s civic duty to love and love and love.

In solidarity, reality, truth, and unity,

Heidi xo
