May every single human being on this planet be safe.
May every single person be protected from harm.
May we bring into being a time in which we are all free from those who do evil— together, speedily and in our days.
We live in a rogue and dangerous country.
Do what you need to do to maintain your internal peace. Hold the core of your spirit. Pray for peace. Commit yourself to justice. And just rest.
An absolute legend.
It should not be lost on anyone that Minnesota Rep Melissa Hortman, who was shot to death in her home last night by an assassin, was a gun safety advocate who worked tirelessly to protect her constituents from gun violence.

If we have to deal with this level of unhinged, could we at least get a lil sprinkle of George Santos?
Not taking anything away from Senator Padilla because he was treated atrociously
But I JUST want to remind everyone that the Congresswoman LaMonica McIver, a Black woman, was just indicted for just asking questions at an ICE detention center in her state

10. Our relationships and community are the things that will carry and sustain us. When we are hurting, when others need support, when the world feels dark, when we need a reminder of what justice will look like, to celebrate the goodness that exists now.

8. Nature heals. When in doubt, go outside.
7. It’s also a gift to be surrounded by people who are smarter than you, and nothing to be afraid of.
