This is the only place that is safe to say it but I am an overthinking about getting enough money to set my family up all so they can leave me alone and I never have to see them again.

They’ve put me through so much emotional turmoil and stress. I’d pay anything for peace.

I'm not being over the top. I have adhd and unbelievably good pattern recognition. This doesn't end peacefully. The sooner you accept that, the sooner we can get to getting. Because right now, they have done everything they've wanted and nothing has even been a speed bump. Plant your feet.

Day 6 of #BlackHistoryMonth ,we celebrate researcher and investigative journalist, Nikole Hannah-Jones, specifically for her extensive and profound anthology The 1619 Project. When it first came out in New York Times Magazine, my library couldn’t get enough copies. Same with the book.

You inspire people you don’t even know. Even the ones who don’t like you.

Media ruined our society in so many ways and also saved us from American propaganda and misinformation.

Duality. It’s the spice of life.

I do prioritize hanging out with people who don’t just talk at me 90% of the time I’m in community with them.

as LA is burning, a swath of the country is recovering from an ice storm, Alabama is preparing for up to 6” of snow and I’m praying for the TX power grid, a reminder:

we don’t need climate action just for future generations, we need it now.

the climate crisis is here, all around us

It’s a terrible thing to watch our planet suffer from the environmental disasters made possible by capitalism.

I’m not going to burn myself out. I’m not that “Superwoman does it all Black woman.” Not even close.
I’m a heavy rester.

I’m just saying.

Just because other folks took a linear path that doesn’t mean you need to do the same.

Also, we probably should have BEEN built community outside of Meta.

I feel like I’m going to lose my online communities over and over again. We keep switching platforms because there aren’t a lot of places for us.

Stop taking offense to folks who haven’t called you in a while. Maybe that person is going through something they need to work through on their own.

In 4th grade I had a conversation with some fellow Black women about not wanting to be friends with them anymore, because we didn’t have values that aligned. This started the beginning of severe bullying until end of 8th grade.

I’m currently crafting a friendship break up letter/conversation —>
