Taking some time for myself every day especially for some joy, a laugh, and to learn something new and surprising. I love that.
In a time where everything happens everywhere at once, it's more than okay to take time to breathe, log off and distance yourself from social media and news.
It's overwhelming and that's purposeful, so take time for yourself.
In the end, we're all trying to get by.

We've operated as a mixed economy since before WWII. Nothing new. Fact just not taught to rising generations of citizens since the early 70s.

Beverly MA, Saturdays, 11-12noon
So many people came out today! It is inspiring and uplifting to stand with them for our country and the constitution. Stand with us every Saturday rain of shine at Odell Veterans Memorial park in Beverly MA for one hour from 11-12. Your voice matters even in a “blue state”. #protest #resist #beverly

I need to say this:
We must keep up the fight.
Take a day or more for yourself. Keep your peace. Whatever it takes.
Know that there are many people fighting on your behalf.
We will get through this but only if we do it together.
No hate.

Tell Citizens Bank to cut off it's services to GeoGroup NOW! ...
As someone who used to be a GEO Group employee, I can confirm that this is par for the course for how these facilities operate. Their policies usually say they’re not allowed to deny detainees water, but I witnessed plenty of supervisors do just that multiple times. To juveniles, no less! #MeltICE
A U.S. citizen who was detained by immigration agents and accused of obstructing an arrest, before her case was ultimately dismissed, says she is still traumatized by what happened.
