Saying #BlackLivesMatter does not mean other lives do not. Saying anything else is insensitive and distracting.
It’s officially Monday!!!

I love Monday.

It’s a fresh start. I get to live another week. I get to try new things. I get to love bigger and better.

Life is beautiful and awful all at once. Embrace the beautiful.

Sometimes, I forget I’m free. I’m safe. Sometimes, I still wake up trembling in fear. But those days are getting further apart. Healing is cyclical. It’s hard. But it’s worth the effort.

Why are they putting up with this? I wouldn’t be surprised to find out he let October 7 happen so he would have a reason to go to war. He’s psychotic. He’s dangerous. And he’s turning the world against Jewish people.

When you shatter a record for pollen (14,801) count, you got the most beautiful green.

Spring Celebration was brought to us by Rosemary.

Rosemary is my favorite herb to work with because it strengthens memory, wards off evil spirits, brings health and wealth.

I love Mondays. Monday is a fresh start. It is a new beginning. It is a chance to make this the best week ever. Change your mindset about Monday, and your life will change.

Every night, before I get in bed, I sit and contemplate the day. I celebrate the small victories. I go over all the things I could have done better. I sit with my personal failures. Then, I forgive myself for what I feel I could have done better. And I let it go.

Multiple people have pasted something similar. This was posted by a Facebook acquaintance. She is a senior. She financially needy. She complained for four years about grocery prices but this year feels patriotic for paying $7.99/dozen for eggs.

Exactly. He is basically selling them into slavery.
Can we stop calling these atrocities "deportations." These people sold to El Salvadorian prisons were not deported. Deportation is a process that did not take place. They were rounded up and removed with no process. They were kidnapped, not deported.

This would be fun, but very dangerous. My mom had NPD. Never tell a narcissist that they’re a narcissist. I ended up in intensive care.
At one of his frequent press conferences (because he loves being on TV), I'd love it if some reporter piped up with, "What do you say to people who call you a know-nothing narcissistic asshole, Mr. President?"

Election consequence. He gutted the national weather service. This is incredibly sad but not surprising. Wait till hurricane season. Remember during Covid when he said if you stop testing there would be no new cases. I guess if you stop predicting the weather, there won’t be tornadoes/hurricanes.

So, to clarify, he’s threatening to deport American citizens to foreign prisons for not buying electric cars after campaigning on eliminating electric cars. Got it.

The tornado is here heading right toward us. We’re in our safe place. I’m terrified.

We are in the level 4 zone. I’m terrified. We have so many old trees outside that are already leaning. The best I can do is hope the tornado blows us back to Wisconsin.
Dangerous 72 hours in South Central and Southeast US. In the next few hours we will have Day 2 of tornadoes, and this one will be around a 16-18 hour tornado outbreak with the bullseye focused on Mississippi, Alabama, and Georgia. Florida, Louisiana, and Tennessee are also in the high threat zone.

OK, help me out here. This is a legitimate question. What does the term body autonomy mean to you? I don’t want you to look it up. I want you to give me the first answer that comes to your mind.

This should terrify everyone. If it doesn’t terrify you then your school failed at teaching you history.
