Oof this is exactly where I’m at…
I read too much dense nonfiction and burned out the book reading part of my brain, and it massively impacted on my ability to read for pleasure, but do you know what immediately fixed that and led to my current 2-5 book a week reading spree? Reading old middle grade and YA novels I loved as a kid.

‘White Lotus’ star Carrie Coon talks about her viral sprint scene in the season finale:
“Look, I’m an American and I’m a New Yorker, and if you think I don’t know where the exits are in any building I’m in, then you’re not paying attention to the news.”

Oof…
A sign of wisdom is choosing not to believe everything you think. A mark of emotional intelligence is choosing not to internalize everything you feel.
Thoughts and emotions are possibilities to ponder, not facts to accept. We don’t always invite them in, but we decide whether they deserve to stay.

It’s still hard to believe the simple fact that this is all self-imposed. Everything that’s happening right now wasn’t the result of some foreign adversary destroying the country. We did this all to ourselves by electing the dumbest motherfucker to ever rule a nation.

Y’all it is okay to feel joy. In fact joy in the face of terror is a form of resistance. It can serve as a reminder of that which we desire to protect.
