I’m seeing lots of people on here misunderstand the purpose of ICE watch. It’s de-escalation. And it’s grounded in the social science of violence. 🧵

Good morning! I am having a phoenix oolong from enthea teahouse that I got at northwest tea fest! I am almost out of this tea--2nd to last dose of it currently in the gaiwan--and it's been a great standby to have, bridging a roasty oolong feel and lighter rounder tones of the honeyed aspect

I did something weird to my lower back or hips so they have been increasingly hurting and now I am resting horizontally in between work tasks, ugh. At least I don’t have any more sitting up that needs to happen once I finish work.
