You know when you have a thing in your house, and you KNOW you have that thing, and you need that thing, but it is nowhere to be found, and you *could* go and just buy another of that thing, but that seems ridiculous when YOU KNOW YOU HAVE THE THING

Friend: "Hey, miss you, do you have some time off this week to grab coffee and catch up?"
Me: "Hi!! I love you, and I would love that! I've also cried three times today thinking about how busy I am, so if I add one more thing I may collapse into dust!"

Many of us spend years circling the story we’re afraid to tell. The moment we finally speak it, we discover the room is safer than we imagined. Being witnessed without judgment becomes its own kind of sanctuary. Something sacred rises in that gentleness.

It's almost like someone who is not a journalist shouldn't be put in charge of journalism.
“I’ve been hearing that standards will be eliminated or severely cut back. Bari has told people that she wants to get rid of standards and is shocked that they have so much power. She also asked openly, ‘What’s the point of standards?’” one CBS source said.

This picture showed up as a "memory" on my phone. Things aren't perfect, and life is filled with a lot of uncertainties. But let this be a reminder (to myself, mostly) that it *can* get better.

Get ya ears off the charger and listen:
“I don’t know what I want” doesn’t mean I’m not hungry. It means I’m about two inhales from being violently hangry & lack the executive function to navigate a menu. Know what I like to eat and FEED ME so no one gets hurt.

I don't talk about my dad's death much because sitting in your living room for two weeks while your dad's organs slowly shut down is a horrifyingly traumatic experience.
We would have paid any amount of money to end his suffering humanely, and I hope Pritzker signs this bill.

I like to pride myself on being a smart person who enjoys learning, reading, and broadening her horizons, but also? *these times* seem to call for finding an old, crappy TLC reality show with 20 seasons and just rotting to it.
