Breaking: An Epstein survivor just silenced press conference attendees when she delivered the following remarks:

“Today we stand in a moment that will decide whether our government belongs to the American people, or to those who prey on them.”

Finally finishing up reading “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” by Truman Capote. The ending sounds quite different than the beginning - and I’m glad to have finally read it. I wonder how different the movie is?

The greatest exploration we will ever make is turning inward,

and in that way,

we are among the greatest explorers in the world

My wish for you today is that when reality and other dreariness tries to stop your dreams of writing, you stomp on them and keep going.

It’s simple and it’s not

Because I don't have choir this morning nor do I have spirit chat, I took myself out to breakfast, went for a beautiful walk, uploaded two shorts to YouTube and made to playlist covers. Seems like a productivity fire was lit! Have a great Sunday everyone!

Amazon announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year.

UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year.

Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M.

This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

Tonight I was going to do something fun alone. At just the moment it was about to begin, a mother and a young boy were standing in front of me. I whispered to the Mom, “would you two like to….” On the ride he said “This is a dream come true!” Joy.

The Situation Room is normally used for secret national security-related planning.

On Wednesday, White House officials held a meeting with Lauren Boebert about the Epstein files in the Situation Room.

Karoline Leavitt wouldn't say why it was held there.

AOC: "It is unconscionable that what we are debating right now is legislation that will give 8 senators over $1 million a piece & we're robbing people of their food assistance & healthcare to pay for it. How can we vote to enrich ourselves by stealing from the American people?"

One of the cruelest things about mental illness is that it can isolate very loving, empathetic people from the most intimate relationships. I wrote this poem when I was in a psych ward, thinking about others—known and unknown—who have carried life this way. 🖤

The myths of winter
are revealed slowly,

emptiness, stillness,
darkness, harshness,

but skies fill and fall
in the canon of snow.
