If you’re struggling, please consider rescuing a pup. You’ll figure it out if you lead with love. Welcome to the family, Indy!

To all of the step parents and queer parents who work just as hard but are not acknowledged as a “real parent;” to pet moms; to anyone separated from their mama today by loss or incarceration or estrangement or something else: I see you and celebrate you.

I was so grateful for my city's peaceful demonstration yesterday. Thank you Claremont, CA and all of the #handsoff folks who marched to preserve democracy! I'm proud of us!
