Since Trump took office, I am mentally exhausted. Emotionally drained. Feeling lost in everything that’s happening. Trying to hold it together, but damn… it’s heavy.

Ever since Trump's inauguration, every day has felt like a whole year. I just had to double-check my calendar - it's totally been 300 days, hasn't it? Oh wait, my bad, it's only been a whopping two days 😒

“Today feels unbearably heavy. I’m scared for the future of this country—for my family, my community, and the generations that will inherit this uncertainty. The rights we once thought were safe are crumbling, and the divide between us feels impossible to bridge. It’s hard not to feel powerless 😭

1/2 🧵Decided to spend some quality time with my family in Puerto Rico—something I haven’t done since New Year’s 2020, when the island was rocked by the earthquake. Fast forward to today, and here we are, under a general power outage.”

Instead of manifest destiny, maybe try manifesting decent healthcare.

What an honor to seat at the Operation HOPE Global Forum 2024 and listen to Dr. Bernice King, daughter of MLK Jr, speaking about how to lift up our communities across the country.

1/2 🧵Sat quietly at my beauty salon today, just observing. My nail tech is from Thailand, the woman who shaped my brows is from India, the owner is from Israel, his wife is from England, another stylist is from Brazil, and my hairdresser is from Colombia.

“Grieving after 11/5 has been heavy, a mix of sorrow and reflection. But now, I find myself in the space of moving forward—carrying lessons, holding onto hope, and channeling energy into what comes next. Healing doesn’t mean forgetting; it means transforming loss into purpose.

“I limit my contact with MAGA friends and family because their values conflict with mine. Supporting a cult rooted in division, dishonesty, and hatred goes against everything I stand for—truth, equity, and human dignity. If you follow Trump, we don’t share the same moral ground.” Simple!
