Still trying to find a way to stop the constant Fight -> Flight -> Fawn responses. Any ideas??

Today, California honors Rosa Parks, a lifelong fighter for justice whose brave act of defiance sparked the Montgomery Bus Boycott and helped power a civil rights movement.
Her bravery inspires and fuels our commitment to fighting for equality and freedom for all.

If you use a VPN for a TikTok ban, make sure it’s one you can trust
It’s almost impossible to figure out which VPNs are creepy or snake oil. You can trust these four options.

A new study found a 62% reduction in cervical cancer deaths among women under 25 in the U.S.

SCOTUS has voted to uphold a ban to keep the TikTok ban - showing the American people that all that really matters is the money you pour into the right pockets. Billionaires, corporations, foreign PACs.
They want to keep us divided & funneled to information-controlled sources.
