Witchy, magical, sisterhood books are so appealing because these stories typically feature women reclaiming their agency, autonomy over their bodies, fighting back against oppressive patriarchal systems, and demonstrating a power in the bond of sisterhood

Results take time, dedication, & discipline—but they do come.
Let go of the limiting beliefs like “I’m too old” or “I’m not smart enough.” Etc. These thoughts only keep us stuck. 🚫
The truth is: you are far more powerful than you realize. ✨
Believe it. Own it. Keep going. 🚀

Balloons don't go to heaven. They fall back to Earth and many birds and wildlife become entangled resulting in death. There are many other ways to celebrate life that aren't harmful to the environment and wildlife!

This is Dill. He was found with a broken leg. With your support of @weratedogs.com merch, we sponsored his surgery and he wound up in a GIANT cast. He then found a forever family that absolutely dotes on him. He loves them so much, he even lets them dress him up as a little frog sometimes ❤️🩹

🚨UPDATE: Rümeysa Öztürk has now suffered three separate asthma attacks while in DHS custody.
She has not received her required asthma medications—a violation of her fundamental right to medical care.
This is cruelty, it is neglect, and it is a damning moral and legal failure.

I'm watching CNBC. These anchors are so angry. They really didn't believe he'd do it. They're actually just now, 10 years into this shit, realizing he's a maniac hellbent on revenge and there's no grand plan for the markets. Better late than never but holy shit.
