In 36h I'll sleep outside (15th time), in 30 weather to show solidarity with our city's youth who live in and need shelters / housing - shelters need funds to operate, as more young people than ever are coming into our shelters seeking safety, security, and love.

While self fulfilling, this rings true for me, I prioritize candor over courtesy every time. Let me be honest with you about exactly what is in my head, and my head is full of curse words 24/7.

This AI answers research is definitely worth a read. I really like this visual in terms of not only which citations show up but we have to think of citations in terms of our locus of control to influence them.

Do you feel helpless seeing what's happening to people in our country for our "safety"? I can't unsee watching a woman being pulled from a tree by grown men, afraid, fearful, unable to understand what's going on.
So we're sponsoring a bystander intervention training
