I just subscribed to 5 Calls Newsletter! buttondown.com/5calls

My goal this year is to bring back the block party. Every neighborhood needs to plan one for this summer. If we see each others faces, it will do more good then sharing clips into the void.

#SOTD👩‍🍳😚. “I turned you into tradition. The tradition devoured its children.”- Leaonard Cohen. We create traditions to keep our children safe, yet this limits the progress that will keep them free. Be careful of what you hold fast to. #perfumesky #fragrancesky

I’m not at all surprised. 💙

#sotd. Or really scent of the week. Recently purchased “Francis Black” from @filigreeandshadow.co and it’s giving me life in these bizarre times. The world may be turning to a hellscape, but I can can go down smelling fantastic! #perfumesky #fragrancesky

@dustmcmillan.bsky.social Yay! Nice to see you!

Daily to do: 1) Focus on the things you can control 2) check your finances and work on reducing what you can 3) do something productive such as a load of laundry, cleaning your desk off, taking clothes to charity drop off. Just something to remember you are still here. 4) limit the scroll.

We were signed up to help at Crossroads of Michigan, providing meals for those in need. It helped to relieve some of the anxiety for Monday. People persist. We need each other. Let’s do more of that.

I have been wondering why US leftists and liberals alike are so terrible at long term strategy lately. Then I remembered that we’re in this predicament because neither camp listens to Black people or respects our history in this country beyond lip service. Abolition & civil rights took *centuries.*

I have the same feeling that many of you do. A feeling of unease, of uncertainty, of fear. I read this quote from Nelson Mandela and it gave me solace. Hopefully it gives you the same. Let’s triumph over it by conquering fear and organize for our journey ahead. 🙏🏽💙
