Morning from Kyiv.
I had a slow #warcoffee
and read the news (nothing good is there).

Today is International Women’s Day.
I am sending my solidarity hugs to every woman who sees this message.
We can do more than we think.

“My message for the situation when I’m killed is very simple: don’t give up.”—Alexei Navalny. An important message for the world in these increasingly troubled times.
"Putin Killed Navalny — Understanding the Nature of Evil is Not Enough: Everyone Who Is On The Side of Good Needs to Take Action"
Heidi Siegmund Cuda interviews Dmitrii Kovegin, who volunteered for two of Alexei Navalny's political campaigns and asks where the Putin resistance goes from here.

Diversity is our greatest asset, even if the government disagrees… They not like us! POC in STEM are here to stay.

They tried to rig the game but you can’t fake influence!

Heads up!!! After February 25, you will no longer be able to download kindle books that you purchased. So make sure you take the time to download and save your library this weekend. And also, divest from Bezos and Amazon!!!

I love this so much!

At the inauguration, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson wore a distinctive collar adorned with cowrie shells, which are believed to offer protection from evil in African traditions.

This choice mirrors the late Justice Ginsburg’s practice of using collars to convey a message.

Wishing everyone everywhere peace and inspiration. Come what may, let us stand strong for all that is right and just. Let us defend those who are being mistreated, and live with kindness and respect as Martin Luther King hoped we would . Our task is clear. ❤️

I'd been so burned out and so looking forward to a proper rest that it's a bit dispiriting to learn, after three days off, that constant deadlines were the only thing staving off anxiety attacks and existential despair.

My understanding is it that b/c users can choose to have their feeds appear chronologically (many do, myself included) the only way to ensure that others see a post is to repost it. That said, I'm still learning and am just sharing my journey.
