Best advice I received:

If you overthink, Write.

If you underthink, Read.

and that is all.

It’s about damn time. AOC is a hero. She’s one of the best out there, fighting daily against Trump’s fascist bullshit.

My father always told me:

"If you want to go for a run, go for a run, don't look for company.

Sooner or later, on your fifth run or your twentieth, like-minded people will find you themselves."

And only recently have I realised that this principle works everywhere.

sometimes i wonder how many versions of myself i’ve outgrown without even noticing. i look back at old photos and remember the thoughts i used to carry, the dreams i thought would save me. it’s strange how you can live inside yourself every day and still not realize you’re evolving. it’s only when you look back that you realize how far you’ve come, how many lives you’ve already lived in the same skin.

Just FYI because evidently Fox or OAN or whatever is pushing the lie that America accepted the Statue of Liberty and that’s equivalent to the plane.

Congress VOTED to approve receiving the statue. So congress should vote on the jet

Be bored more often.

Go for long walks. Meditate. Journal your thoughts. Read new books. Spend time alone without devices. You would get to understand yourself a lot much better. Your brain gets the best ideas when it is left to wander.

In those quiet moments, you'll uncover clarity and inspiration that can't be found in constant stimulation.

When Knowing His Name Is Enough

We spend years chasing the hand of God—petitioning for provision, calling for clarity, yearning for the next breakthrough. But something shifts when we stop asking what He can do, and start desiring who He truly is.

The soul, weary of striving, begins to awaken when it whispers His name—not as a formula, but…

We live in a time that people are more inclined to obey an unlawful executive order than they are to follow a court order 🤦🏾‍♀️.

Dictators are created due to cruelty, cowardice, & compliance! IF THEIR ASSES will ignore the Supreme Court, we can definitely IGNORE HIM!

I don't know any members of the Washington "Blob," but I am surrounded by its many deluded supporters. Some are family and (former) friends. Some common, dangerous traits they seem to share is that they can shape "reality" to their own liking, including changing their biological sex, enjoying "freestyle" interpretations of laws, logic, history, and human rights according how such things align with their "feelings" and personal "truths." Anyone outside of their ideological igloo poses an existen…

They used to scream how awful it was when that monster Cheney said they were creating their own reality. They have no reality now themselves to see the difference. I got out and looked inside my former party very carefully from the outside. The frogs are still clueless in their getting hotter pot on the stove. My thanksgiving divided into 2 factions in 2 towns. One that harpy Joy Reid told them to do. I was in the one that doesn’t give a rats patootie what your politics is as a family.

Was it Cheney who said that, or maybe Rove? Rove had that famous election-night meltdown when his preferred reality was failing to materialize.

It was Rove.

Although I hate Darth Cheney as much as you can hate a cyborg like that. When is he/it going to die already? Maybe an EMP would solve that problem.

Cheney did say it also. I heard him say it and it stuck in my head. I was pretty active anti war. I contacted congress all the time, marched in DC, wrote letters to the editor, had signs in my yard showing numbers of dead, the works.

The "works" didn't work, did they Janet? There's a lesson in there. The only thing these fuckers understand is kinetics. How long until we understand that? Time to get after it.
