The road that we live on goes to an abandoned factory -- I took a walk down to the old bridge that's been blocked off due to safety.... and I got some great shots of some graffiti. Enjoy!

One of these days we're gonna have to reckon with the fact that "money that I spend which does not directly benefit me is a waste" is a popular sentiment. I think we should state plainly that this is selfish on its face. And stupid when you have awareness which extends beyond your nose.

Toxic positivity is pressuring people to look on the bright side. They have to suppress anxiety, anger, sadness, and grief. Healthy support is shielding people from the dark side. You invite them to express their pain, and show them they're not alone and won't feel it forever.

There's an old story: a boy walks along a beach that's covered w/ stranded starfish. The boy picks one up, throws it back in. Then the next. Someone says "Why bother? You can't save them all. You can't make a difference." The boy throws another back and says "It makes a difference to that one."

It’s been inspiring to see everyone come together for LA,,, but there’s one community I need to highlight. Not enough is being done for the black families after the LA fires. Ive partnered up with GoFundMe and the BMAC to create ONE main GoFundMe campaign to immediately help those in need. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

Good morning. You are still here. Do something kind for someone you love today--and if you can, for someone else in your community, even if they're a stranger. We're in this together. ❤️

The fact that commercials for generic viagra show that they come in condom-like packets that some guy can stick in his wallet is really.... gross and creepy.

If you post photos or art that isn't yours, credit it to the creator (and link to their accounts/website if you're extra cool). If someone else posts stuff that isn't theirs, ask them to credit it. Posting art without credit isn't "appreciating" it, it's just using someone else's labor for likes.
