In a recent slog post, Christopher Frizzelle highlighted these words from Trisha's piece that stick with me:
As the economy crumbles further under the weight of stacked illusions, we’re

more interdependent, more connected to one another. I mean locally and
globally—the world is becoming so intimate.
And, at the end of the day, it's about connections. At least for me.
Stay positive.
