Please trust your instinct.

Ditch the plans that feel weird.

Pay the compliment out loud.

Keep a wish secret.

Set the boundary w/o fear of judgement.

Know your place, meaning quite literally if they say it isn't your place & you disagree, own your place.

Look folks I hate to break it to you but most of the Democrats in office right now and definitely all of the Republicans are fine with the current state of things because they’re functionally insulated from the political and economic repercussions

Well done for making it to the end of January.

Stop whatever you're doing and read a book to reward yourself.

If you don't have a book, then buy one from an indie bookshop, that way you'll be making TWO people happy.

This is a big deal, y'all. Federal health websites are being stripped of content or removed in their entirety. Stick with this thread for a look at what's disappeared so far! 1/x

Tiny acts, of rebellion and compassion.
Gave the lady behind me at the store the $2 off your next order coupon

Her: "Really, you don't want it?"

Me: I'll probably lose it and this is worth way more than $2.

We both laughed.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.

Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

I have a rule that if I find an obituary when researching something, I stop and read it. Today's was Jim Thatcher. Not really an obit, but the search yielded a notice of his death. He helped make one of the first screen readers:

I've seen people referring to themselves as TikTok rufugees and Twitter immigrants. I get that there is loss and pressure to move, but it feels pretty gross.

If you’ve been directly impacted by a pause or cancellation of an NIH study session, we @forbes.com would like to talk to you
All NIH study sections canceled indefinitely. This will halt science and devastate research budgets in universities.

Wishing paper cuts on the people who cut their way to business class and then proceed to take calls where no one can hear them but the other passengers on the train.

This Cybertruck did not crash. It made a heartfelt and perhaps ill-advised gesture that, in the moment, might have been misinterpreted as a crash, but we should not rush to judgement.

Perfect example.
lol my media diet is about to SHIFT significantly. I'm consuming what I need to be informed and nothing else.

Using my little corner of the internet to underscore the importance of remembering your health. Eat, rest, take vitamins, say no. You can help, but none of us can or should do it all.
"It's going to get so much worse."

"You won't like what comes next."

"Enjoy the..."

Shut. Up.

Increasing the overall feeling of doom is op shit, even if you're not an actual op. We already know. All you're doing is increasing feelings of helplessness and making it harder to act.
