There are 3 St Joe's where I live. Gone to the wrong ct so many times. 😂

I get it!

The Dems should be working nonstop to educate the public about Elon's hijacking of the treasury (most people don't know this is happening or what it means), and they should be advancing plans to intervene. Instead, they have retreated into irrelevance.

Yup. None of them will provide me any information. Only 2 even communicated with me. Clearly, they have some feelings.

Mom has dementia. Dad is frail. Kids are 20/21. Had to reinvent Christmas this yr. Spent the last 3 months crocheting snowballs. Had an epic indoor snowball fight. Time and fun does erase some wounds. #adoptee 🥚

I have a strong allegiance to my adoptive parents and have always felt that it was my responsibility to fill a void in their lives. This burden generates feelings of grief, rage, and fear of abandonment. #adoptee

20 yrs ago, I was given 1 week off from school. Made to take all exams with no accommodations 3 weeks later. No student outcry. I'm really thrilled to see these students cares about their colleagues wellness. Atty wellness needs to be normalized.
