I don't know about you guys, but I've had it with super-strong little women who aren't me.

Thrive to spite them

Hi zuisa!

Andi that's beautiful.

I keep telling myself thrive to spite the fuckers.

I stepped away because it's effecting my mental health and also.making me feel bitter and mean spirited and I don't want that.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I keep telling myself thrive to spite the fuckers.

I love this, askye. Defiance and self-care and hope and anger all in one sentence. LOVE.

I am having a lot of trouble with the news so I have really been limiting my consumption and turning it all off when I go home to be with my family. But here is a funny I had to share - two law bloggers live blogging last night's Supreme Court pick:

Elie Mystal: Is there literally any person of color in the room right now?

David Lat: Trump - orange.

Glad y'all like it.

My therapist did too, he said I should make a t shirt and asked if he could use it as a motto for the trauma groups (without the profanity) I said sure.

To me it's not just living and living well it's especially doing things you wanted but not have done for whatever self doubt/societal expectation reasons.

My friend died Monday night at age 58. Life is too damn short. Do the thing. Do all the things.

So how long until the filibuster is removed for Supreme Court nominees? I'm thinking nine weeks.

Oh man, sorry about your friend, Steph.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh god, Steph, that's so awful.

YES. Good one.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I am not sure why I am so calmed right now by engaging with people on the internet, but I am, so I guess all y'all coping has hit me at he moment. God knows this is not my normal state.

I do LOVE that someone on a Ted Cruz post said something "why don't you just take them into your home then? Didn't think so." And I got to respond that I, in fact, did have an immigrant in my home and had the sole financial responsibility for them for over a decade.

Bless.
