If you breathe in for 4 seconds, hold for 7, and exhale for 8, it tells your body you’re safe. This slows your heart rate, relaxes your nervous system, and helps shift you out of fight-or-flight mode. Now do it.

There have never been kings in America. The monarchy doesn't start now.

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance.

Democracy requires your courage.

I wish I could remember where this paper came from. I think it was originally gift wrap.

football, beer and above all, gambling filled up the horizon of their minds. To keep them in control was not difficult.

The cognitive dissonance of getting up every morning and making coffee and walking the dog and going to meetings and answering emails and wondering what to make for dinner while there is a real live actual coup d’etat happening is BONKERS

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Opportunities are everywhere.

Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are πŸ“‰

No foreign power has ever posed as massive and immediate a threat to the United States as the current administration.

Next time you have a job interview, do one of the following and see how it goes:

1. Display an emphatic "Roman salute."

2. Promise them that you will stop your binge drinking if they give you the job.

Pin this, save it, we’ll need it.
