Be their safe person. Be the one who’ll show up in a crisis even if they’re not your actual kid. Be someone who a young person can count on to be by their side, and be their advocate. Too many have parents who aren’t that. If you see them struggling, ask them what they need to succeed.

Blocking Nazis, trolls, and fascists doesn’t make it an “echo chamber.” People need to stop gaslighting us into thinking we have to listen to Nazis and debate trolls in order to be informed.

Did you know there are peacocks in Hawaii?
Brought over in the 19th century as ornamental birds, they’ve since gone feral on islands like Oahu and Maui. While non-native, they haven’t caused major harm—unlike the mongoose. Have you spotted one of these royal birds? #NatureLovers #HawaiiWildlife

We’re not being silent. But we are taking notes.
