Here’s a fun Black History fact for you:
In 1892, Mary Fields, also known as “Stagecoach Mary,” became the first Black woman to work for the U.S. Postal Service.
She was a cigar-smoking, gun-toting legend who delivered mail in Montana, fought off wolves, & never missed a delivery. Absolute icon.

Do you know why a president would do all the most evil and heinous shit via Executive Order? Because his party can't easily make it law. And if they can't make it law, they can't make it last.
Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.

Some coping mechanisms I can recommend:
- Scrolling through art feeds, looking at whales flying through pastel skies etc (e.g. @aplante.com)
- Find girl scouts, buy cookies
- Screaming. Screaming. Screaming into the basement. Blood curdling screams. Your neighbor isn't home, it's ok
- Pet a cat
