You do not have to love your past decisions. I don't love mine. But punishing ourselves for them can't un-make them. Shame & harsh self-punishment only increase the chances we'll say "f*ck it" & go all in on more not great decisions.
Just do the next right thing.

Hey Jon Stewart, jokes about wearing masks aren't funny
Critics of the Daily Show host say he's a hypocrite.

Two things are usually happening when we're being gaslit: our reality is being questioned, & we're being blamed.
Pay attention to when you're feeling "crazy" & blamed, & get in the habit of pushing pause, breathing, reorienting, & reality testing.

When someone dies of the flu and you say “what pre existing conditions did they have?”….you’re saying the chronically ill are expendable.
When you say “only the sick & elderly die of the flu”… you’re saying they’re expendable.
We are not expendable.

Victim blaming helps the privileged keep their power.
Got raped? You were asking for it.
Disabled? You didn’t take care of yourself.
Getting deported? Should have followed the process.
Don’t make enough money? Should have made better choices.
Stop blaming the oppressed.

Everyone is talking about how bad the flu is.
Media & healthcare facilities are pleading with people to get their flu shot.
To stay home when sick.
To wash their hands.
Very few are recommending masks. When we had mask mandates we eliminated an entire flu strain.
Mask up!

When it would endanger all those around you, the difference between ineptitude and malicious intent is indistinguishable, and unimportant - and the consequences should be likewise.

Not for Covid.

Stop worrying about terraforming Mars and start preventing the venusification of Earth.
Humans will NEVER colonize another planet. Never.
If we can’t even agree to do the minimum to keep Earth habitable, there’s no way in hell we’ll cooperate to make another planet habitable.

It’s crazy to think about the crimes we’re going to learn about after this regime ends.
We’re already hearing about Watergate level crimes every week. Imagine what will come out after it’s over.
We’re going to need a full accounting of all that’s been done in violation of the constitution.

Do you know why girls used to get married at 15?
Because they were forced to
They were “property”
They had no rights
They couldn’t vote, own a home or have a credit card
Just because we used to do it that way doesn’t make it right.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.
Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.
Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.
It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.
It’s about priorities.

SNAP does not drive up grocery prices.
That would be inflation, tariffs & corporate greed.
For every $1 spent on SNAP there’s a $1.50 going back into the economy.
While you’re blaming the poor, the rich are robbing everyone.
