Hey.👋

Release your tongue from the roof of your mouth.

Relax your jaw.

Relax your shoulders and neck.

Breathe awhile.

My only working explanatory hypothesis right now is that billionaires and authoritarians *Literally* thrive on human misery; that if people aren't suffering then all their money and power don't actually sustain them, and that cruelty & sheer horror are the only things that flow through their veins.

i take it back, it’s now “well, we all are going to die.”

not every mother’s day acknowledgement starts with happy.

for many, it’s hard.

remembering moms who’ve passed or thinking about moms never known. for moms who have suffered loss and those who suffer in silence.

mother’s day can be one of joy or pain or often both.

may your day be one of peace.
