Nearby fireworks last night gave me a jump scare and I'd be lying if I said the possibility of immediate violence didn't flash through my mind...

I don't know who needs to hear this, but cops are not allowed to shoot people just because you didn't do what they said.
That is called murder when they do that.
Some cops are working hard to convince people otherwise.

I've also done a fair amount of not pushing myself this week, giving how burnt out I've been. But I'll be there today! I have an afternoon talk that still needs to be uploaded 😬

What's kind of neat from a disability standpoint is that for her and other characters with assistive devices, it's normalized.

If you need someone to tell you: you are safe tonight. It’s OK to put down your phone and sleep. The world will still be consuming itself tomorrow. Right now you need rest. Close your eyes and imagine you’re a bird, that you can see the electromagnetic current of the earth.

It’s Tapir Time
Ume is officially 11 months old and already weighs 483 pounds! 💗 That’s more than halfway to mom Yuna’s impressive 800 pounds. This adorable Malayan tapir is gaining size, confidence, and curiosity by the day, still keeping close to mom while steadily growing into her almost-teen tapir era.

This is why I will now be referring to exercise as "maintenance for the meatsack"
