I was born on an island off the coast of America. I live in the midwest, and I'm staying to fight for Democracy. In the US & around the world.
Vote like your life depends on it. Because it does.
And keep fighting for your rights!

So, pregnant women should make healthcare decisions with the advise of their doctors? Got it. So, they can make decisions regarding termination of pregnancy or even a DNC in the event of miscarriage.

Same with me. I was confused by the process until I did it a few times. I still carry it with me in my paintings today.

He learns words, but not their definitions. They mean nothing to him. Just like his "word" is just a sound. He will never keep his word.

The nib was used to apply the wax & later melted away (by the candle) to show what was beneath. The final product shows the layers of color when the wax was removed.

You put the wax on where you don't want the color (the dye doesn't get that area) & then melt all the wax away to reveal the layers of color.

I remember making those when I was a kid. Mine were never near as beautiful but I loved the process.

I was abt 40 & had to go to the dr, I joked w/ the nurse that "maybe it's shingles"
The dr came in & examined the rash. Dr: you have shingles.
Me: wow, really? Can I get the vax?
Dr: you can but insurance won't cover until your 60. It'll be 600$. (It has changed since then, but..holy fork!)

Yes. This is a normal human response. It doesn't have to be Plath. Your community will be there. Hold them tight while you move on to rage. Together, we can burn the problem to the ground.
Then we will celebrate & feel joy. Keep being a poet. 🫂

I've been considering this movie. I'm fine w/ horror flicks but I don't generally seek them out. Your description has made me add this to my list. I'll report back after the weekend.

I've heard it said, "I wish I knew it was the good old days while I was living in them."
I say, "Make the best of the days you're living, and they are the good days"
The days may be difficult, but we can make the moments beautiful. ❤️

Don't wait for "the perfect time" to say I love you. The perfect time is now.
Don't wait for "the best time" to fight for freedom. The only time is now.
Tomorrow isn't promised, but today is here. Say it (do it) NOW!

I work at a book manufacturer and I meet so many people picking up their own books. I am always so happy to be there to see the joy & excitement when they see their work as a finished product.
I am so happy for you!

They took notes and are trying to repeat it.
As it has been said: why didn't the "good Germans" do something?
The answer is: what are you doing today?
I'm not going to comply. I'm going to be so loud, they can't help but hear me.

Best "investment" I ever made. They are in the laundry right now, so I have to use the pathetic "no pocket" sheets. I have no idea where my remote is.

Thank you, Donut. I was having a rough day, but showing me your lovely flowers made me feel a little better. You can (&will) keep the flowers, but I appreciate you sharing the photo.
I'll try to return the kindness.❤️ 💐

Of course, they have to supplement their salaries. How else are they expected to get by on (checks notes) more money in 1 year than the average American makes in 5 years.

This is such difficult news. I try to remain hopeful for an end to this "SMO" the ruska scum have done.
I will continue to keep a light for you, your family, and all of Ukraine 🕯

That dumb mother fucker doesn't even know that the federal holiday is for Dr. King and not him. He would probably declare his inauguration is so great they closed the post offices & banks.

The same people that say "don't send aid to foreign nations. America 1st. take care of us."
Out of the other side of their necks, they say, "we can't afford to feed children. No debt relief for students. Cut social security b/c blah blah, but also, cut taxes for the rich."
