I saw my first #whale in the #SFbay!!! If you’re local jump on a ferry and go see the pod that’s hanging out. The captains are gentle and will move slowly when in their vicinity. 🐋

Got to witness the swearing in of Congresswoman Lateefah Simon, District 12! When I tell you that this woman gives me sustained hope I mean it. She is the full and complete vessel of people power, wisdom, and deep intellect here to serve the country. And she has a seat on the oversight committee! ✊🏾

“The best way to protect #democracy is to teach it.” Fantastic resource designed for High School students but good for anyone! Includes techniques for nervous system regulation because the world is heavy. Be well. ❤️

Did you know that the value of sharing a #GoFundMe is 100$? Please keep sharing even if you give $1 it increases collectively! Here’s my friend Amber’s story. Her whole community lost everything. One house still stands where 50 family members are huddled for the moment. #LAFires ❤️ gofund.me/953f0aee

Doing what we can to send supplies to #La. Grateful for the ICA team in SF for organizing. ❤️

We definitely just had another earthquake.

This literally just ruined my morning coffee for me. Thanks Debbie Downer Stephen.

Elon is worth 426 Billion. The estimated cost of the LA fires thus far is around 135 Billion. Can we do some quick math here? I’m looking at a Google doc of Go Fund Me’s because insurance policies have been cancelled. Why can’t the richest man divert his funding to these people in crisis right now?!

3.5 #earthquake in Daly City this morning. Lil’ SF wake up jolt.

Anyone else feeling that the word “empower” is egregiously overused??Power is not external to be granted to others. People inherently possess their own agency, wisdom, and strength. It’s not your job to empower someone but help them create conditions where existing #power can be realized. 💫

The #GoldenGlobes really have a way of sneaking up, don’t they? It’s like a sudden cultural checkpoint—“Wait, what have I been paying attention to this year?” Honestly, not knowing half the movies or shows mentioned is pretty common right? (Adding The Brutalist to the list now as well..)

Guess I’ll start watching Shogun!

The big question in California is whose #lemons are you picking? Your own? The neighbors? Or the neighborhood’s designated #lemon tree that you just snag a few from as you pass by? 🍋

Did we pull over and just buy 12 avocados? Mmhmm.

See’s Chocolates and Danish Kringle from Traders Joe’s over here…

Overheard at the bookstore. 7yr old talking to its guardian: “I know but like I told you, kids HATE when adults buy them books!!” 😱😂🙃 Buy the books anyways guardians!! Buy the books!! #booksky #read

Jeremiah Brent is slaying his role on Queer Eye. 😭🤩🙌🏾

This is so moving, especially after listening to The Telepathy Tapes about nonverbal children (see previous post so worth the listen!!!) Absolutely here for this in the art world. 🙌🏾❤️

Who else is knee deep in this podcast? Can we meet on the hill? 💫

I’ve been a fan of Rochele’s community work in the arts, particularly the Doll Walls where she facilitates students to make dolls for children who have suffered gun violence. It’s a stunning citywide piece of work that began in Chicago. ❤️

We need Jaime Lee Curtis to make another Christmas movie, y’all. 🎄🎄🎄

How many folks got through #connections today? I lost all my guesses and all my chill. 😆🤷🏾‍♀️

Wish upon a thousand shooting stars… www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/h...

Amos Paul Kennedy, Jr. Black printmaker who is a force in his unwavering work as one and insistence that printmaking not become an art for the elite but remains an art form for all. #gardens #libraries 🙌🏾❤️🙌🏾

Okay, sure!

The Amos Paul Kennedy, Jr exhibition is gorgeous, exact, and inspiring. I’m a fan. ❤️

What I learned from my first #taunami evacuation: 1. I entirely forgot that I own an emergency bag for times like this. 2. I remembered my medication!! 3. Snacks are also important. I packed snacks!! 4. I grabbed a book because #books. 5. I choose my foam Birkenstocks??? Really??

I told you I was hear for the earthquake warnings but apparently also the #Tsunami warnings!
