Attended No Kings in Holland, MI. with my mom today. We had a huge turnout for what is still a largely conservative part of the state!

There are plenty of books at your local libraries and bookstores to read and learn about autism that do not focus on Tylenol. Best of all, more and more books are being written and illustrated. More and are being published! 📚

My heart needed to read this today. I’ve been putting together photos for my dad’s memorial service this weekend and found this pic of he,my mom and I at one of Scherzer’s no hitters. I remember feeling so lucky to have been there that day and feel even luckier now ❤️⚾️

@mlb.com @sfgiants.com My dad recently lost his battle against Alzheimer’s and I found this while gathering photos for his memorial service. This stub is from my first MLB game he brought me to at 3 months old. He loved baseball and passed his love of the game to me. Thank you, dad ❤️⚾️

I’m an mental health clinician and I see this a lot in my job. It’s not easy and many people won’t or can’t do it. Sending you strength, patience and thanks for what you do for your sister.

Where were white people on Election Day?! If we didn’t march to the polls on November 5 to elect a black woman as president, we can’t clutch our pearls when black and brown people don’t march in protests against the unfortunate result of that election.

As a Michigander, let me tell you pissing off Yoopers isn’t a great idea.

The world on March 2, 2025 is a better place because you didn’t leave it on March 2, 2024. I hope you’re here for many more March 2nd’s to come! 🩷📚

Same here but with my dad. It’s beyond heartbreaking and this is like a gut punch on top of it all. Sending you love and strength Wendy.

How about we allow them to decide? If a kid is interested in a trade and is pushed to go to college, they might do horribly because it’s not of interest to them. We need skilled trades people and people learn how to learn when in trade school too. Coming from someone who spent 7 years in college.
