Thanks for joining me! It was so much fun talking about the power of flawed heroes without special superpowers. We can all be those kinds of heroes when dealing with alien invasions and other scary monsters. :-)

When you jam your bill through overnight…

When you are forced to cancel town halls…

When you need to wear masks to hide your actions…

You know the people aren’t on your side—and now, you’ve lost us forever.

We will remember this day. We will remember your names. We will remember you as traitors.

Play builds empathy and collaboration, as well as the ability to work through conflicts, imagine possibilities, and deal with disappointments. Children's museums create opportunities for families to learn through play. Links below. (1/2)

(3/3) However you choose to resist, may you be safe. May you be protected. May you know that you are not alone. We are in this together.

Dr. Diane Jackson Schnoor @drdianeadventures.com · Jun 11

(2/3) What is resistance? Standing together. Protesting. Boycotting. Amplifying voices. Writing. Speaking up. Having hard conversations. Loving our neighbor. Volunteering. Reading. Embracing Joy. Seeking Connection. Protecting Nature. Protecting those who cannot speak. Voting. Keeping pressure up.

#NOKINGS Had an interesting call with my dad about protests and his concerns that the regime will use this weekend as an excuse to crack down with martial law. After assuring him I will be careful, I reminded him that he raised me to speak up and do the right thing. Resistance takes many forms.(1/2)

Probably the most dangerous thing in politics is when a leader needs conflict – depends on it for his political power… He drives up fears of others, launches provocations to incite violence … And so, a country seems on the edge of something disastrous.
