It is difficult to break free of our belief systems. In the word "belief" is the word "lie," and we should be skeptical even of our own beliefs by asking if they are grounded in love or separation?/2

If you are someone who recognizes that the world needs more compassion today, but you are struggling to find it, here's something to try saying: "I don't blame them because it is the belief system they were indoctrinated into."/1

Self care is an act of humility. Ego tells us that we must go, go, go. We must achieve to prove our worth. Self care is letting go of pride to validate that "I am already worth it. I am worthy of love. I am intrinsically valuable."

YAASSSS, QUEEN! I don't live in SC, but I think she's nailed it!

I am starting to wonder if part of the problem is that even as a billionaire, he doesn't really grasp what a billion is ...

I was very happy to see you out there with us today. Thank you for your support!

Oh thank Christ!

If you weren't already on day 6, I might suggest weaning yourself off. I went through that a few years ago, and I genuinely thought I was sick for a few days until I realized it was caffeine withdrawal.

A bunch of people from the Good Neighbors in WNY Getting it Done (a local chapter of Red Wine and Blue) went and visited his office this week. Look for the group online.

Thank you for speaking up! Those Democrats should not have censured you. I am not one of their constituents, but if I was I would be calling to give them a piece of my mind right now.

Completely. A 9 year old just died from neurological complications near where I live. There was no blood flow to her brain. It's so sad.

Honestly I tried to vote for him in the primaries. They said I couldn't. I was pretty sure that I had registered as a democrat, though in fairness, I can't say it with 100% certainty. But I had heard from a lot of people at that time who had similar experiences with me.

No taxation without representation, amiright?

Keep what you have and drive it until the wheels fall off. I read the climate book a year ago and it said it is far better environmentally to use what you have than go buy anything. I think that is especially true with the current state of affairs. But as little as you can.

I need more information. Who gave the Treasury to Musk and when did this vote to make place? I apologize if I should know this, but there is so much going on, and I am trying to keep up.

How much you wanna bet it's coming from the raw milk that people are drinking these days?

What do you mean is unfair? Lol because it's less fun?

Stuff I made this weekend:
• Strawberry syrup
• Ice cream (using the strawberry pulp)
• Door sweep (stuffed with scraps fabric)
• Turkey and veggie chili
• Homemade bread

Part of my efforts to reduce plastic waste and minimize reliance on corps.

.@anneapplebaum.bsky.social is brilliant, and this is one of her best. Long, but worth your time.

This is my favorite for sarcasm: 🙃

Braedon: I come from a nation that believed in fascist ideology for a while. And we don’t want to go to that again. We are close to it because people want to simplify complex problems. The essence of fascism is to simplify complex problems and feed people who don't have time to read some bullshit.

1/ RE Meta's decision to abandon fact-checking (and follow the lead of other platforms taking a similar hands-off approach), it's not great. But we have seen this movie before in media history and it's probably more instructive to anticipate what this moment creates. ...

Pro Tip: When you buy fresh ginger, cut it into small chunks and throw directly into freezer. Use it whenever a recipe calls for fresh ginger.

Reasons why:
1. It's EASIER to peel when it's frozen!
2. Avoids food waste.
3. Keeps way longer, which saves you money and is better for the environment.

Once you go bidet you’ll always want the spray

Thank you 😊

Every time I travel, I am reminded that the majority of Americans live without a bidet, and I just don't understand.

The devastation on its way is unimaginable - like nothing humanity has ever witnessed before - and everyone will wish they had been climate activists and ‘hysterics’ when they had the chance. We are in a moment of unprecedented stupidity
