Pretty on the money quote at the bottom of my cheesecake slice

I catch this on the regular. Decided to share this one here as maybe a kickoff to using this platform more 😊 #444onthe4th #angelnumber #makeawish

I spent Easter Sunday hanging out in the woods. I didn’t have the energy for people plus time in nature is always good for my soul. Lovely way to start the week.

He has to be trying to tank the economy on purpose, right? He can’t really be doing all this without a bigger picture at play, right? I know nothing about economics, so I dont know for sure but I’m assuming he’s doing this on purpose to further take absolute power of the country. Am I right?

Sitting at my desk with the window open while it is pouring rain outside. The sound of rain is one of my favorite sounds in the world. Finding pleasure where I can in these days when it feels like the world is burning. #simplejoys

“Because in this brand of Evangelicalism, a man’s faith is measured by how often he sits in a pew. A woman’s faith? By how much of herself she’s willing to sacrifice.” <= #facts open.substack.com/pub/marykath...

This is a very real, valid, and accurate take on our current situation.

JUST A REMINDER ... ... of how close we are today ...

Guiding folks through creating a Vision Board is one of my favorite things to do. I lead a year-long leadership development program and at the end participants create a vision board for how they want to be as a leader. Loved what emerged as this year's boards were done.

This is truly spectacular

I really need this to be a thing ☺️🤭😅

I love puzzles. One of my favorite things to do. This one has been in the works for a bit. Combines my love of #musicaltheater and puzzle making. Oh and my new puzzle board was a game changer. It swivels AND has drawers. So fun!!

Did not know this was a thing. I have now added it to my browser. I use my library all the time. I love that I can find out if it has a book I might want so easily.

Anyone else participating in the economic blackout today? I am and just wondering who else on here was doing the same.

Full on fat snowflakes falling here in North Carolina. It likely won’t stick but sure is pretty to look at 🥰

I second this! Also, every single one of these books is amazing.

I really need #hillmanfiles to come to BlueSky 😊💚

They are working overtime to literally erase and rewrite history. This will not end. A country unwilling to learn from its past will ultimately destroy itself. clarksvillenow.com/local/books-...

but this is good.

Me too. Me toooooo!!!!

Let's normalize not asking people if they're okay when it's obvious they are not 🤦🏽‍♀️ Maybe instead we can practice asking, "it looks like you're not doing okay. How can I help?" #makedasmusings

This clip is currently running on repeat in my mind including the movie's larger message about patriarchy. youtu.be/CBqlDWHkdHk?...
