Much love to you and everyone else who this resonates with.

May we all find more peace and safety 💛💛💛

I’m the same way. Thankful to have a partner who doesn’t think I’m overreacting. I still remember how he sat me down to share when Ruth died… he knew I was going to loose my shit, and he was right.

My love to you. From my perspective, you’re a completely sane empathetic as reacting as such.

This is exactly how I feel. Really thankful to have the privilege to work with an EMDR therapist during this time. It’s helped me so much, everyone who needs it should have access.

Sending you and everyone else in this thread my love, support, and wishes for a more peaceful tomorrow 💛

I used to love this place as it has a really interesting outdoor seating area great coffee, and interesting vibe but the owner of this place I have watched verbally abuse her employees and it's disgusting. I remember going in one day and watching one of the baristas look like she was noticeably afraid of her employer like she was walking on eggshells and it was very odd and noticeable. I thought this lady might've been stressed out to work there. A few weeks later, I was going by this place as I live nearby and I saw this owner of this coffee shop, screaming at the top of her lungs in the face of this same barista.
Just verbally ripping into her verbally, abusing her something is wrong with that lady. Anytime I'm around that owner of this shop. I get the icky feeling. I've watched her scream at the top of her lungs in the face of someone who was just trying to do their best working for her. Everyone is stressed lady, some of us more than others, you don't take your stuff people.... I felt incredibly bad for that barista who appeared to be a middle-age mom type of person. I will never return to this place even though it was so close by and had an interesting unique vibe, loving small business. I will never go here again lady you need therapy to apologize to that chick..

It’s funny how he has time to have an opinion on the Super Bowl halftime show but not the President calling to arrest political enemies or Epstein or anything else worth a damn.

emily moonlight @threnody.bsky.social · 1d

he also has a phone: (916) 445-2841

want to know what to say? next post! 🧵

Where is the smoking gun? This all seems really run of the mill resume and education stuff, which the majority of folks fudge at some point in their careers. Nothing even rising the to level of a full lie, more like embellishment.

This case wouldn't exist if he was white.

Trump is now calling up National Guard troops from states to send them into other states.

He’s trying to send California troops into Oregon & Texas troops into Illinois.

This is illegal & threatens to tear apart our country even further.

He is trying to provoke a civil war.

Watching the new (old) Solaris and something about the ambient background sound makes me wanna sleep. It’s so good, as it turns out this used to be my go to nap movie for a reason.

While eyes are on the goofy ass plan to terrorize citizens across the country with federal troops, the house of a South Carolina circuit court judge caught fire yesterday.

Diane Goodstein blocked the DOJ’s attempt to get voter data last month.

Brought my Yes on Prop 50 post card project to a co-creating session at a friends house. So glad I did! 1/3rd of the folks had no idea what I was talking about, another 1/3rd had questions. Hoping this event turns a few of them into YES voters on Nov 4th

#SpecialElection

Post cards with colorful text urging voters to vote YES on prop 50 in the November 4th special election in California. They are spread out on a wooden table with purple, red, and blue pens scattered around them.

It's testament to Swift's power as a songwriter, though, that I hear her melodies and phrasing in songs by Lady Gaga, Sabrina Carpenter, etc. Similar to how Diet Pepsi is a better Lana Del Rey song than Lana Del Rey is currently making

Nomples wanted me to share this for Caturday

Tabby cat in a pink cat bed, backlit with morning sunshine. Her paw is gripping the side of the bed. She is snarling and you can see one little fang showing in the bottom of the mouth. She is squinting and the black handled of a cat toy is sticking out of the bed, she is laying on the end of the cat toy.
