Apparently that thin line between "Do they not like me?" and "I don't f***ing care" is called 'personal growth', and I cross it back and forth like it’s a tennis match I didn’t buy tickets for.

The past has its own terrible inevitability.

The Indigenous People of North America have decided to go back to calling the Gulf of Mexico, “Chalchiuhtlicueyecatl”. It is what the Nahuatl People originally called it as it is the domain of the goddess Chalchiuhtlicue, who is assoc w/water bodies, including the Gulf of Mexico.

Don't let them steal your joy. It may feel like nothing good will ever happen again, but if you are mindful and present, moments of joy will surely appear. Notice them. Savor them. They are as real as the fear and the pain, but they are what will sustain you, heal you, preserve you. #joy #mindful

@rbhubbell.bsky.social says it’s time for the Dem MOC to implement a Shadow Cabinet. @timothysnyder.bsky.social has been sounding the alarm to do this. Robert’s suggestions who should be on it are in his article. We can add to it. @repjasmine.bsky.social comes to mind. Let’s do this! 202-224-3121.
We are not sheep. Get louder. Take action. Create a shadow cabinet.

A great light in the realm of #science, #virology, and #verticalfarming has gone out. My heart is deeply saddened.
We are deeply saddened by the passing of Dr. Dickson Despommier.
A brilliant scientist, storyteller, and friend, he shared his vast knowledge and infectious enthusiasm with all who listened.
We will miss him dearly. Our heartfelt condolences go out to all who knew and loved him.

If you are feeling distressed, might I suggest inviting the softest little kitty to sit in your lap. My boy, Linus, is magically calming my nerves as I repeatedly tell him how much I love him. #cats

Every morning I vow not to doomscroll social media to the extent that I overwhelm my nervous system, and every night I realize I've broken that promise to myself. Tomorrow is another chance to try again. #selfcompassion
