To the person who lost their Starbucks card on the N Judah train in San Francisco 16 years ago…you fed my kid that night.
Thank you, whoever you are.

Optimism is a skill we cultivate. It matters a lot during times of external stress. Optimism is not about denying the truth. It gives us a balanced perspective and helps us look for and find solutions to the problems. Bonus-it helps us live longer and have better relationships!

Remember to limit your time reading the news. It can crush us and steal our hope. Invite someone out to lunch, see your friends, make art, give hugs. ❤️

Drawing and scribbling today-didn’t change the facts and fears of what is happening. But I felt a little better doing something creative. And motivated to keep going. 🩷

Just another day working to support dissertation students on their research with trans people and with women of color. Working to support my clients and therapists I supervise to navigate this climate. Not letting anything interrupt this!

For times of fear and dread.

⭐️ Look to women who came before. Angela Davis took bold & risky actions. #sheros

⭐️ Link yourself to women for inspiration, purpose & courage.

Consider:
- send art to your reps & demand safety & compassion
-email reps & local leaders
-rest, cry, hug

Making art is good for you! Even if nobody sees you dance or you never show your drawing to anyone, make art. Art is part of the resistance against oppression. 🩷

Immigration police showed up in our city this week. Reading the emails from the principal at my son’s school…the administrators and teachers will not let the government in to take our children. I’m proud of them and so heavily burdened that it has come to this.

Take good care of yourself.

We don’t make art because we are good at it, we make art because it is good for us.

Art and creativity give us comfort and insight. Make art in troubled times.

My dad said divisions between people around identity were artificially created by the extremely wealthy to prevent us from noticing the financial inequality. He turns 90 this year. 🩷

To work for peace…I keep reminding myself I contribute best by being at peace myself. It is not passive, it is not ignoring. Peace is the vibe I want to bring to the chaos.

I’m now one of those people who are grateful for my chores. (I have food so my chore is to wash the dishes, etc.) I never felt gratitude for chores until I became a mom. I’m just really grateful for what my chores are about.
