I think it is a completely normal reaction to feel stress and anxiety over the state of the U.S. right now.

So don’t forget to take time to do stuff that makes you happy. Even if it’s transient happiness, it provides a ton of benefits. 💕

Every single Democratic lawmaker should be calling for Hegseth's immediate resignation right now. Not just some. Not just a few dozen. Every single one, starting at the top with Mr. Schumer and Mr. Jeffries. And the fact that it hasn't happened yet is nearly as shocking as Hegseth's conduct.

We reported on this a few days ago, but I want to point out this headline because this is where we are at.

A bill in Arkansas would ban gender affirming HAIRCUTS for transgender youth.

HAIRCUTS.

This is a straight up North Korea state sanctioned hairstyle proposed law for youth.
GOP bill could ban hairdressers from giving gender-nonconforming haircuts to minors - LGBTQ Nation
The bill would allow anyone to sue someone who affirms a young person's transition, and it specifically mentions hairstyles.

This is an example of what I mean about us living in a red country now. A lot of us are worried about vaccine availability in the U.S. and some mentioned maybe getting them in Canada. This was a response from someone who I genuinely thought was a decent person.
