Panic and despair without an outlet can be self-destructive. Interrupt the doom spiral:
-Do 1 self-indulgent thing that makes you feel happy or content.
-Do 1 thing to make your home environment more calm or comfortable.
-Do 1 thing to help your community and people in it.
Repeat as needed.

What is keeping me going is the thought that if I give up my enemies will get exactly what they want and I can't have that.

Please don't forget indie authors this holiday season. Many can't afford to sell their books through anything BUT Amazon. Check to see if an indie author is selling their books via independent stores, but you're not a bad person for supporting an indie through Amazon or Kindle Unlimited, thank you.

When buying books for gifts this holiday season, please don't buy from Amazon. Please shop at your local independent bookstore/bookseller. Ask for recommendations. If they don't have a particular book in stock, ask them to order it.

It takes until the *tenth paragraph* in this piece to introduce the phrase “thousands of children may die”
RFK Jr. wants to tackle chronic disease. Despite controversial views on vaccines, his focus on healthy food and taking on special interests may find broad support — and face political headwinds.

What an achievement vaccines are. What a monument to our love for each other it is to stare straight into the face of something as horrific and unstoppable as smallpox or measles or polio or cervical cancer and say “You know what, it doesn’t have to be like this.”

I'm here now, shell-shocked and feeling defeated. I stood up to the sister who I felt closest to, who was upset about my social media posts and claimed that "I only did it because of the economy, can't you understand?" No.
Anyone need a big sister or an auntie? My role seems to have opened up.
