Comparing yourself to someone that doesn’t even think of you on that radar or measure you on any scale is as pointless as getting a salad from McDonald’s.
Hatred doesn’t put you where you want to be and jealousy doesn’t get you any closer to what you want.

Put the bitterness away and work.

One of these days we're gonna have to reckon with the fact that "money that I spend which does not directly benefit me is a waste" is a popular sentiment.

I think we should state plainly that this is selfish on its face.

And stupid when you have awareness which extends beyond your nose.

Ever feel like you are loved not for who you are, but in spite of who you are? Like everything that make you you is put into the con column? Life is good as long as you keep that part quiet around that person.

Did you know?

In 1968, 24 Black men in Pittsburgh revolutionized emergency medicine.

The Freedom House Ambulance Service was established to provide emergency medical care to underserved Black neighborhoods—creating the world’s first paramedics.

Do you know who loses in a tariff/trade war? We do. The consumers. Add in the firing of the head of the Consumer Protection Bureau and things are going to get ugly. #fafo #ididntfa

Inspectors General are key public servants tasked with holding our government accountable. They’re independent, nonpartisan whose work is identifying fraud, waste, & importantly, abuse. Trump just fired them all. Make no mistake: he's purging those who will protect the rule of law.

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism.

We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive
