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.
When You're Bored, You're Being Shaped.
Boredom isn’t the absence of stimulation. It’s a test. Of what you reach for. Of what you default to.
Do you grab your phone? Or a pen? Do you scroll? Or sit with your thoughts? Do you numb? Or build?
Because what you do when you're bored becomes who you are when you're not.
Boredom is a doorway. To creativity. To clarity. To the things you keep avoiding.
Stop escaping it.

My liver’s perfect. My kidneys are divine. My glucose is… a little dramatic. We’re waiting on more tests. And I’m being very brave about it.

Sometimes I fantasize about disappearing.
Not dying.
Just logging off.
Getting a job no one cares about.
Growing tomatoes.
Writing poems in the margins of a notebook no one reads.
Not as a failure.
But as a kind of freedom.

The next president has to do two things: 1) right the wrongs of Trump and go after those who broke the law and were corrupt. 2). Then spend time divesting power from the presidency and building real guardrails and passing laws like, “the president is not immune” etc.
Oh and get the money out of politics

i think the hardest part about healing is realizing there’s no finish line. no big dramatic moment where everything feels suddenly better. it’s slower than that. it’s quieter. it’s choosing not to text them back. it’s making your bed on a heavy day. it’s being kind to yourself when your mind is cruel. healing is a thousand tiny victories no one else sees.

My gosh…we passed 2,000 subscribers overnight. Either you’re all extremely loyal, or you’ve fully lost it. Either way—I’m honored.
Thank you for showing up. Thank you for following me here. Thank you for reminding The Woman that a formerly stray cancer-killing machine with strong opinions and questionable table manners still has pull.
Now if you’ll excuse me, I have to get spiffed up for my checkup with Dr. Kenny—the only human I willingly allow to poke, prod, and praise me.
I’ll report back later…
I might get slightly bashed for this one—but just my personal intake;
Can we please stop giving the “universe” credit for what GOD is doing?
It’s not the stars aligning — it’s the Savior making a way.
Doors don’t just open on their own. That’s GOD.
Let’s start calling it what it is and giving honor where it’s due.

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!
Why didn't Trump do this in his first term?
Oh right, he accidentally filled the swamp.
I'm glad people told him #NoPompeo, but what prevents him from picking another deep state scumbag?
Trump is the system trying to quell the discord.
I hope he gets to do a few things like not sideline Kennedy who can easily expose the vaccine issue, which Trump denied last time cause supposedly Bill Gates told him it's not a good idea (really tard?).
Sigh, hope for the best, prepare for the worst.
Why exactly is Pompeo a “scumbag”?
He set up a CIA Ops office in the West Wing. He installed an enthusiastic torturer, his chief protege Haspel, as CIA director. He followed behind President Trump wherever Mr Trump tried to make peace (notably in person in North Korea) and destroyed and rapprochement by levelling threats. Need I go on?
I call bs on your reasons, which are debatable and don't change the fact that Pompeo served well under Trump and helped accomplish the President's policy objectives. You're not much different than the deranged leftists who call Trump a "dictator" and "Hitler."
Served what and whom? That is the question. Answer? The CIA and its war monger international "clients". He served the interests and ambitions of foreign powers while pretending to serve his country. What is the word for someone who does that?
Now you've really exposed yourself as a slanderer taking a page out of the leftist smear playbook. In their case we know they're deflecting from their own crimes, so what criminal enterprise are you shilling for or protecting?
Yes, it can be debated, but the unfettered and vicious attacks on a public servant who basically worked well and did a lot of good (the swamp State Department opposed, not welcomed him, and celebrated his ouster with Trump's) is reminiscent of the bloodthirst of the French revolutionaries of yesteryear and the hypocritical intolerance of current leftists who gaslit and tyrannized the rest of us for the past several years. This needs to get strong pushback or it will lead to dangerous places.
In 2020, nearly every institution that you trusted went full N@zi in an instant and tried to kill you and the only reason the Republic is still standing is because a bunch of anti-vaxxers who already knew the Pharma playbook from the autism wars fought back with all their might.
The entire field of psychiatry saw "antidepressants" destroy their patients and said, yep, sounds good.
The entire field of pediatrics saw vaccines maim the kids in their care and said, yep, sounds good.
The entire field of cardiology saw statins cause dementia & falls and said, yep, sounds good.
Hundreds of thousands of medical professionals are engaged in organized crime.
I just looked it up and I’m shook. I don’t know why I didn’t look it up years ago because it’s such an obvious question to ask. The CHARGE Study and MARBLES Study at UC Davis are the two best studies of autism causation in the world. Multi-million dollar, decades-long, led by the finest environmental epidemiologists in the world, following and testing hundreds of families for environmental factors that may cause autism. But today I learned that the studies do NOT control for vaccination status.…
