my only advice for all of this shit is to find 1-2 things you care about deeply, and then find the easiest tangible way you can help that thing.

I refuse to let the next 4 years ruin the time I have here.
I will have joy.
I will laugh.
I will rest.
I will dance.
I will sing.
I will spend time with folks I love.
I will find ways I can help my community.
I will find the beauty.
I will hold on to peace.
I will live.
I will have joy.

Who was flying the helicopter? How many years of service & flight hours? What was unique about this “training” exercise? Other than air controllers, who else is responsible for monitoring? Without IG’s, who is investigating? Who was on that plane?

If anyone knows of any extra-help, substitute librarian or library worker jobs (especially in the Bay Area) please kindly send them my way! (:

I’ve applied to a couple of places, but either haven’t heard back or they went with someone else.

Long live libraries! ✨💚📚

Joy is very important. Not necessarily avoidance, but joy as an act of defiance and courage. Being joyful means I have hope and a level of freedom that cannot be disturbed. I believe we have a bright future. I am grateful to be alive and I will let my light shine!!

It’s been inspiring to see everyone come together for LA,,, but there’s one community I need to highlight.

Not enough is being done for the black families after the LA fires. Ive partnered up with GoFundMe and the BMAC to create ONE main GoFundMe campaign to immediately help those in need.

Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson is well protected in a fabulous Cowrie shells neck piece. The National Museum of African American History and Culture notes that, in America, the shell is thought to be a totem used to resist enslavement.
