NEVER AGAIN!!!

I’m going to say something that shouldn’t be controversial but will be. If you are a Christian, you can support border control and immigration being legal vs illegal. You CANNOT celebrate deportations and get off on the cruelty, and be a real Christ follower. Period

People.

They’ll lose their minds over a delayed train, snap over a slow barista. Let a spilled coffee ruin their day.

But when it comes to the big stuff, staying in the wrong job, letting their dreams die quietly. Wasting years on auto pilot.

Nothing. No urgency. No reaction.

We treat small problems like emergencies and the real emergencies as background noise.

Why do we do that?

Sometimes, when he fails badly enough, Trump can be forced to do the thing he says he never does: back down.

Today is just one more turn on the roller coaster - but it is more evidence of why we can't give up or let up.

What you consume, you become:

• The books you read.

• The content you watch.

• The people you spend time with.

• The thoughts you feed your mind.

Choose wisely.

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.

I cannot express how much I admire and respect this man. I supported him for president back in 2019 and will support him for ANY elected office in the future. He’s the real deal 💙💙

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!

Uncommon advice:

If you don't know what to pursue in life right now, pursue yourself.

Pursue becoming the healthiest, happiest, most healed, most present, most confident version of yourself.

Then the right path will reveal itself.

You hit publish, and there’s no reaction.

No likes. No shares. Just silence.

But writing isn't about receiving praise.

It’s about leaving parts of yourself for others to discover.

It may take days.

It may take years.

But keep writing, regardless…

Mexico has officially banned the Trump propaganda from airing on Mexican TV and social media. No racist ads, and no lies disguised as messages to the world.

THE RFK Jr PLOT BACKFIRES ON MAGA

he's an implausible human being on just about any level.

one of the "odd" things is that five out of six of the people I knew reasonably well who died of Covid (early on, in fact) were Ashkenazi Jews.

and if he expects people to believe that he actually attends "about nine" AA meetings every week, he's either lying or not-quite-sober.
