Shadow Work #3: I sure have been consuming a lot of marijuana lately
Do I have a problem? Should I feel bad? Am I just an AuDHD person trying to compensate for my brain's lack of dopamine? Or are we looking at this problem the wrong way?

I’m the Canadian who was detained by ICE for two weeks. It felt like I had been kidnapped.
I was stuck in a freezing cell without explanation despite eventually having lawyers and media attention. Yet, compared with others, I was lucky.

Yeah no because I’m looking for more opportunities to limp my broken ass around government buildings
A new proposal would force millions to file Social Security claims in person. The agency acknowledges the change could cause particular hardship for elderly and disabled Americans who have limited mobility.

Trump’s Pentagon is erasing Navajo Code Talkers—Indigenous warriors who helped win WWII—from military websites. This isn’t about “efficiency.” It’s about whitewashing history and erasing those who don’t fit his MAGA narrative.

This is what our Transportation Secretary was doing yesterday as planes are crashing on a near-daily basis. I cannot remember a more dangerous time to fly and yet this reality TV actor-turned-Cabinet Secretary is busy watching cars drive laps at the Daytona 500.

Autistic people will be on the verge of cracking on the spot from exhaustion and overstimulation but the moment we dare to even show a bit of unhappiness about the current circumstances there will be at least one neurotypical person upset at us for making a scene

Blaming an aviation accident on autistic people is like blaming LeBron for missing a game-winning shot. Like who tf else do you want flying the plane? Someone who DOESN’T have the ability to focus on difficult tasks for long periods of time???

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.
Opportunities are everywhere.
Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

Donold is blaming a plane crash that killed 67 people on “DEI” with zero evidence.
He is attempting to use racism to deflect from the fact it is HIS fault. He had just removed 100 FAA senior officials.
It’s been 11 days and there are 67 bodies in the Potomac in Washington DC because of him.
