I am interested in too many things to list. I’ve done a lot of interesting things & will do many more before I shuffle off this mortal coil. Current focuses: home & hearth, creative pursuits, healing my relationship w/food & exercise.

Self care means many things. It can mean skin care and bubble baths, but it can also mean making that ointment you need to, paying that bill, asking for help when you need it, etc.

We the people have spoken. Our freedoms and the future of our democracy matter now more than ever. That’s why we surveyed over 1,000 Americans on the issues that matter to them most. @maya4rights.bsky.social explains why this data matters. Results here: : https://bit.ly/4p8I4Tr

I’m grateful to have a place to stay and save money while I heal and while I figure out my next steps. Reading this book my friend gave me to help me think through where I’m going, I’m trying to relax as I consider everything.

This is the longest lasting damage, and who knows how long it will take to repair, if that will even be possible.
Precisely. As a world “leader” the U.S. is done for decades.
In a White House meeting with civil rights leaders in early 2021, President Biden recounted his first trip to Europe. Biden he announced to them, “America’s back!” The European leaders said “yeah, but for how long?”
They were skeptical.

There's arguably no effective way for any future administration to undo the strategic damage being done to the U.S.'s relations with these and other states.
No matter what we do, the U.S. will be seen as an untrustworthy, craven & mercurial "partner"—something simply to be endured or hedged.

Hello #booksky! How’s everyone? I’m currently sitting on the couch with a warm lap cat and listening to Pride & Prejudice. I’ve watched a few versions, but somehow never read the book, the audio was available now & I needed my next listen, so here we go.

New to me cheese I saw at Trader Joe’s! Can’t wait to buy them and try them once I’ve finished the cheeses in my fridge. Have you tried either of these?

Moving because your life has been upended, and when you are in the throes of heartbreak, sucks. But I’m trying to embrace the hope and possibilities of what’s next in my life, and I’m very grateful for my lovely friend offering me a soft spot to land and heal.
