Our individualistic culture tells you that you need to do everything in your life on your own, all by yourself, and if you can’t, then you are broken, flawed, and unworthy.
The mindset is a recipe for both personal and collective pain. Break it today by asking someone for help.

Why read books? Because books are still the most powerful, reliable, transportive & magical storytelling technology we've invented - and all they need to work is YOUR OWN IMAGINATION! #booksky

Another one to be careful of, it's possible that they just had their account stolen so don't send hate to the person but remember every time someone sends you something like this
IT IS A SCAM
it's either to take over your account or possibly some crypto bs.

Instead I’ve been using “anti-vax influencers” which distinguishes them from normal folk and focuses not on what they do to vaccines, but what they do to people.

I’ve more recently started using “vaccine alarmists” and “vaccine alarmism.”

Do with this what you will.

The Texas state board of Pharmacy can see the controlled substance prescription records of 37 other states. All that's needed for Ken Paxton to access those records is an administrative subpoena.

So, we have elected representatives who meet in the middle of the night to hide their deeds from the people they supposedly represent,

and we have "law enforcement officials" who hide their faces from the people they are supposed to protect.

I am beginning to sense a theme.

Great write up on a very effective scam that uses a second scammer to call your bank while you speak to the scammer. Don't trust unsolicited calls/texts/emails claiming to be from your bank.
The scammer is on the phone to you.
Their accomplice is on the phone to your bank, pretending to be you.
Your bank sends you the notification.
You accept, and scammers proceed to drain your account.

A deafening amount of noise needs to be made about this. DEAFENING.
This is big: House Republicans tucked language into the budget res “rule” that bans the House from voting to terminate Trump’s emergency declaration used to impose tariffs. TL;DR lawmakers who vote for this are officially giving up their power to revoke his tariffs until October.

Did you know Bob Marley has a Tolkien quote in a song?

“*It's not all that glitters is gold*
Half the story has never been told
So now you see the light,
You stand up for your right

Get up, stand up
Stand up for your right
Get up, stand up
Don't give up the fight”
