By the way if your voting location was the fire house on Magazine St. because of the parade it’s been moved near Jackson and Laurel.
They scheduled the new date the day of the election. ORLEANS PARISH you have until Saturday to early vote. No excuses.

I’m sorry you’re having one of those days. I know the feeling.

Take a moment and think of a person you’d give anything to protect. That person, those people, are your point.

Today, take care of yourself for them. Love yourself so you can love them. One day, and then another day, and then—
@theferocity.bsky.social Saeed, may I trouble you for some pearls of wisdom? I am feeling a great amount of despair today. Very what’s the point. I’m so over being ruled by classist elites who are more interested in filling their coffers than do anything to help us.

Every time you see a “New Orleans strong” commercial remember that, in honor of the Super Bowl, the city rounded up their homeless population, forced them onto busses under threat of arrest, and piled them into an unheated warehouse at a cost of $17.5M. $17.5M that could have been spent on housing.

I supported Second Harvest for years and whenever friends in other parts of the country asked how they could help Louisiana after a disaster, this is where I sent them. I don't think anybody was donating to cover the civil liability claims against the archdiocese.

When your relatives start arguing at Thanksgiving, calmly grab your favorite serving bowl of food like you're going to the kitchen to refill it, and just don't come back. Quietly escape with your favorite food.

This has been survival tips with Jen.

In high school, I worked at a hospital assembling meal trays (paying attention to specific dietary needs/restrictions) for patients and delivering them.

In college, I delivered pizza for Domino’s.
