Maybe this chapter of your life is about developing patience w/ & compassion for parts of yourself that you were conditioned to deny & disown-- & maybe you don't owe anybody any apologies for prioritizing your own safety & stability for once.

Natalie Merchant is such an under appreciated artist. Man, her music, voice, and lyrics are all on point.

Nothing like food poisoning after working two thirteen hour shifts to make you repent of everything you’ve ever done and possibly going to do in the future.

These tariffs are a Trump tax. Instead of putting a stop to them, Congressional Republicans are rolling out the red carpet for more.

In a deranged post, Trump sent markets into another death spiral after declaring a national emergency over Canada's tariffs on electricity, imposing more tariffs, and calling the U.S.-Canada border an "artificial line" in a push for annexation.

The laundry & dishes can wait.
Rest your bones.
Rest your atoms.
Rest your fangs & claws and be ready to face the menacing return of the Monday monster.

Turns out now was absolutely the worst time to start watching The Handmaid’s Tale. Took my generalized anxiety regarding the current news to a full panic spiral. Maybe going to try cat reels only to reset today 👀

Finally watching the Handmaid’s Tale. Quite honestly, it just seems like it’s time (or past time!), and I really need the script for the current bananas we’re living in. 🙃

Friendly reminder for those feeling a case of the Februaries…you need dopamine! Scrolling gives mini hits, but for a stronger dose, try nature, gentle exercise, good sleep, dancing to your favorite song, making cookies, playing with your pets, hugging a friend, meditation, cold plunging or a bath 💗

This has now become law- I voted and spoke against it - it’s unconstitutional- this is how fascist dictatorships happen.
We passed a bill in committee yesterday that felonizes elected officials if they vote against Trump’s immigration policy. Let that sink in. Duly elected officials will go to jail- will have a criminal record- if they do not vote for and support Trump’s policies.
