There's no rule that says we have to do everything perfectly on this trauma recovery journey-- or that we have to pretend in front of everyone or anyone else that we've got our sh*t together. No one who matters will think less of us for struggling-- & those who do, don't matter.

They’re using American tax dollars to fund infrastructure in Argentina because that’s where they’re all going to flee when we kick them out of office

I went onto a podcast to talk about Julian!

If you are uncritically reporting on a new event, comedy festival, app, or virtual museum that notes that “Funding for the project was provided by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia”—then you are not doing it right. They are laundering their reputation for killing journalists.

Anyone who quotes and uses Shakespeare in their stuff is ok by me ijs re Taylor Swift 🤣

Egypt foreign minister urges Hamas to accept Trump Gaza plan and disarm

Trauma Brain tries to convince us that basic self-care, like feeding ourselves, hydrating, cleaning & organizing our space, & managing our money, is "pointless"-- as if they have nothing to do w/ our safety, stability, or cognitive/emotional load. Don't bite. Just do your best.
