Stay free

Walk your path with kindness. Kindness towards yourself is the first step. This does not mean being selfish. It means listening to your body and your thoughts and being non judgmental to how you are. Listen to yourself and soothe. Then allow your kindness to flow out to others. 😊

Some of those that work forces

Are the same that burn crosses

all my life I was told that America had the greatest system of government ever — but all I can see is one party high-fiving itself over the state-sponsored murder of its citizens, and the other party impotently writing strongly-worded letters about it. WHAT IN THE ACTUAL FUCK

Same to you and thank you for sharing your amazing pictures. 🤩

A Battle with My Blood When I was diagnosed with leukemia, my first thought was that this couldn’t be happening to me, to my family.

Singer Kristy Lee: "When American history starts getting treated like something you can ban, erase, rename, or rebrand for somebody else's ego, I can't stand on that stage."

We might need to add a verse: Crime on Corruption.

The grasshopper gets it — divide and conquer. Today’s robber barons use the same playbook. But together, we have all the power. Watch.

Please don’t worry about me Friends,

I’m receiving an increasing number of messages from some of you who are concerned about me. Please don’t be. I’m not going to stop speaking out. Some thoughts... https://robertreich.substack.com/p/please-dont-worry-about-me

Image of a holding beach worn lump of igneous rock (andesite) which is shaped like a heart. The rock is weathered to a brownish-very dark red colour and contains holes (vesicles) that have been infilled with pale coloured calcite and quartz (amygdales). The background is an out of focus rocky pebbly beach on the Berwickshire coast. Caption is lyrics from deadspace “heart of stone”.

And so I must bear to you a heart of stone.. 🖤

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants.

Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this.

Do not.

“Let us develop respect for all living things. Let us try to replace violence and intolerance with understanding and compassion. And love.”

"Just do your best
Do everything you can
And don't you worry what their bitter hearts
Are gonna say
It just takes some time
Little girl, you're in the middle of the ride
Everything, everything'll be just fine
Everything everything'll be alright,alright" The Middle/Jimmy Eat World
