The crowd tonight in Norfolk, Virginia for Abigail Spanberger and Barack Obama. LET’S GO!!!

Life will humble you if you're paying attention.
But if you can learn to meet your own mess with grace, you start to move through it differently.

Sometimes you just let people do what they do and you stay steady in who you are.
It's not pride, it's peace.

I have been charged in a federal indictment sought by the Department of Justice.

This political prosecution is an attack on all of our First Amendment rights. I’m not backing down, and we’re going to win.

Hurting Donnie’s feelings is now treason.

Never in the history of the US has any president openly and repeatedly called for the investigation, arrest & prosecution of his political opponents. While many continue to shrug these things off and normalize them, I will never stop pointing out that this is what autocrats do.

Tens of Thousands of White-Collar Jobs Are Disappearing as AI Starts to Bite Companies ranging from Amazon to Target are sending workers into an unwelcoming market.

We cannot allow AI and robotics to simply wipe out millions of decent-paying jobs.

This new technology must benefit workers — not just Elon Musk, Sam Altman, and the other tech billionaires and CEOs of large corporations.

the cruelty is the point

Amazon just announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year.

UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year.

Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M.

This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

You’re gorgeous! Fb

Cost to fund SNAP and keep 42 million people from starving:

$100 billion

Cost of lost revenue due to tax cuts for the richest Americans in the top 1%:

$100 billion

One is decried as "welfare." One is not.

Why?

Every day is a choice. A choice in how we show up, how we love, and how we forgive ourselves for the times we didn't. I've learned that self-compassion isn't weakness, it's how we rebuild when life humbles us. Some days I get it right, some days I don't, but I keep choosing to grow.

I choose love over judgment
Love asks why, not who is wrong
More compassion, fewer conclusions
Let love lead, let ego rest
See the human, soften the story
Love first, boundary next
Love is my lens today
Drop the verdict, keep the heart
Speak gently, listen fully

I burn my life to make a sunrise I know I'll never see. - Luthen Rael in Andor

We say we want people to rise yet keep them chained to who they were. We call for change yet drag the past into every moment. I’ve done it to others and to myself. Love is the only thing wide enough to hold it all. This doesn’t let anyone off the hook, it asks if the hook was ever real.

Peace isn't found in the silence, it's found in the moment you finally stop needing to fill it

That's terrible! What's the country turning into? OMG 🤦‍♂️
