Let's be very clear: Strong men - men who are truly role models - don't need to put down women to make themselves feel powerful. People who are truly strong lift others up. People who are truly powerful bring others together.

Weak men cannot compromise. Weak men cannot build consensus. Weak men think that leadership means force. Weak men build nothing that lasts.

Remember that thing us speech lawyers were saying about not ceding our 1A rights to vague "national security" concerns?

Yeah it wasn't about TikTok. It was never about TikTok.
Bluesky is walking a very dangerous line right now and I don’t actually blame *them* for having to be prudent about what information they allow to stay up.

Blame Elon Musk and Trump, who have taken away YOUR free speech rights and YOUR privacy.

If you're feeling despair it's because you have a moral compass. It means you're not empty on the inside - that you nurse hope and a sense of justice in a cage next to your heart. You're one of my people and I'll stand with you. There are more of us than they want you to believe. Hold fast.

Even now, when many are scared and worried about retaliation or worse, you’ll never be wrong if you stand up for what is true and honest.

I believe things will be better, and soon. Stay the course.

It took me 31 years to understand the importance of deep friendships and community. Don’t deprive yourself from having others around to support you, even online, making connections and building community will help these next few years ✨
