Not even gon lie, this is the reason I don't teach boyfriends how to cook meals I learned from family. Whatchu not gon do is take credit for Grandfather's chicken and dumplings.
I keep handwritten recipes from previous girlfriends. I secretly stick them in my recipe book, like a collection of memories. I still love to see their writing. I also claim the credit for the delicious meals I can now make, especially for prospective partners.

No, I don't need a bloody copilot for this document, thank you.

Writing is, in no small part, a tool for thinking. If you outsource that element to a machine that cannot think, you shouldn't be surprised if, at the end of the process, neither you nor your reader are any the wiser.

SHARE WIDELY.
KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.

With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights.

You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one.

My fiercest belief is also a theme that informs all of my writing and can be an act of rebellion in dark times: they may try, but nobody, and I mean nobody, can tell you who or what you really are.

I am going to say something radically optimistic:

The ONLY way we get through this is by countering individualism with enduring community. And I believe that most people want to be in communities that care for each other.

My loves, if you find today or any day difficult for you, I find there can be comfort in Tolkien’s words.
While some times may be terrifying, infuriating, or devastating, it is never hopeless.

I took today to make some art, and it felt wonderful. I think it's gonna be a lil series based on personality quiz results. The first is the right and left brain quiz and the next is the true colors quiz.
