Illustrated grid titled “Self-Care for September” by @positivelypresent. Twenty colourful icons with self-care prompts such as: drive away from self-doubt (red car), write a letter you don’t send (letter), reward your small wins (trophy), plan time for fun and play (football), indulge in daydreams (apple and cloud), let plans fall into place (autumn leaves), appreciate this fleeting moment (mushrooms), find beauty in nature (moon over water), speak up for yourself (megaphone), make time for self-discovery (book), bake up new ideas (cookies), nourish your inner child (lunchbox), and be grateful for what you know (homework sheet). A warm and encouraging reminder to prioritise small acts of self-care.

Self-care is giving the world the best of you, instead of what’s left of you.” Louise Reid

Gentle reminders for when you need to come back to yourself… even just for a little while.

🧡

Illustration with three cute characters: a teapot, a cookie, and a cup of tea. The message reads: “In case no one told you today – you are enough just as you are, and the world is a better place with you in it. Your kindness and resilience are noticed and deeply appreciated. Your efforts, no matter how small they seem, truly matter and make a difference.” Picture by @the_splintered_mind_

“You alone are enough. You have nothing to prove to anybody.” Maya Angelou

For the moments that feel too much.
For the times you second-guess yourself.
This is your reminder… keep going gently.

“Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.” Dalai Lama

A moment of kindness can stay with us.
Passed on. Carried forward. Remembered.
It doesn’t take much… to mean a lot.

Johnny English was supposed to be entertainment, not a lesson plan.

Colourful cartoon-style drawing of a green caterpillar with huge rainbow wings, standing proudly in pink boots on a bright yellow background. Text above reads: “An accurate representation of me becoming ‘even more’ in response to being told that I am ‘too much’.” Picture by katieabey

“You will always be too much of something for someone. Be you anyway.” Dr. Thema Bryant

When someone says you’re ‘too much’…
Maybe it’s because you’re bright. Honest. Full of ideas. Maybe it’s because you care deeply.
Be you-you don’t need to be less.

“We rise by lifting others.” Robert Ingersoll

Supporting someone else’s shine never takes away from your own.
Kindness grows brighter when it’s shared.

While I cannot heart this, I agree fully with this post.

Welcome

Wisconsin residents are receiving text messages from a (202) D.C. area code, falsely urging them not to vote in the upcoming election. These messages are not legitimate.

Is the K for King? Please, no.

Gentle blessings.

This quote has been frequently on my heart lately.

There's also the component that many people with disabilities have trouble navigating phone menus and SSDI is their only income source.
SSA and HHS should have live people answering the phones, both at the federal and at state levels.

Be the reason someone feels Heard seen valued and loved. Black writing on a pink heart pink heart ripples out darker and darker picture by joyfulsmolthings

I love this video so much. Dis-ability is less about our physical differences &more about the ways we incorporate inclusive design, structural&behavioral, to allow different-abilities to function &thrive together.

I believe ASL (or your country’s SL) should be a required language class in school.

“Be an encourager. The world has plenty of critics already.” Dave Willis

The world doesn’t need more people pointing out what’s wrong - it wants even more people lifting others up.
Use your own light to brighten other’s path!

Is it terrorism to have removed all the charging stations from federal properties while you promote your friend's business on the same stage?

Interesting how only one EV brand is getting all of the attention, isn't it?

I see you. I hear you. I share the same concerns for our children.

I added some color to one of them.

This is great!

Postcards addressed to any federal worker are laid out over the table they say. #HoldTheLine.

Hey everyone, loosely based on postcardstovoters.com it’s my own thing. Use Google maps & find a fed office in a state. Mail them a postcard that says you support them & you’re thinking about them. I do this every night. Use #HoldTheLine for its defense, communication, & lifeline connotations

Today's sunshine inspired chalk art with the grandies.

I literally want my tax dollars to support national parks, science, education, conservation, mental health, and helping marginalized people in case that wasn’t clear.
