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
I refuse to be the kind of person who loses their mind over a delayed train or lets a spilled coffee set the tone for the whole day.
I want to be the one who stays composed, who sees the good even when things don’t go as planned. The kind of person who breathes through the little chaos and still finds beauty in how the day unfolds.
I want to be soft. I want to be steady.

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!

BREAKING: Jasmine Crockett:
“Instead of the president cosplaying as the pope, he may want to cosplay as the president of the United States”
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 have had a really emotional night, having watched both “Everything, Everywhere, All At Once” and the second episode of “For All Mankind,” season 3. Really in my feels but also feeling mind-expanded, future-thinking and hopeful. It was a little bonkers to take a step back in time and read tonight’s letter after that.
I love how HCR writes because it feels approachable, informative and like she’s writing directly to me, to make sure I understand the deeper meaning of everything that’s happening…
I've got to re-order Apple TV. "For All Mankind" is the ONLY show in the last 10 years that has absolutely captivated my attention (well, except for the historical reenactment series where historical archeologists do things like build castles, and work for a year on Tudor or Edwardian farms using tools and foods of the time period. See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ydoRAbpWfCU ).
Your drawing of the line of time connecting the present to the past, with slavery at the root is really well done.
Thank you, that connection was so clear to me and I couldn't type fast enough to get this 'aha' out of my head.
YES. I didn't think I would like For All Mankind but I got obsessed with it because the story is told so well and it's clearly been fully thought through. My favorite part after watching the first episode was a series of supplemental 'news' episodes that show what happened in each year between season 2 and 3. They absolutely nailed the immersive 'is this real?' experience!
