A lot of my friends are empathetic people, as am I… this is how we found, embraced & love each other.

All of my empathetic friends are struggling very hard right now.

Empathy in such a time of chaos, uncertainty, fear and anxiety is overwhelming.

Empathy is still a gift. Even when it hurts.

At red light. Had to yawn, I turn & stare out window. exact moment l start yawning, car pulls up & driver made direct eye contact & held it the entire slack jawed yawn. I bust out laughing. what did he think was happening? I knew but did he think I was imitating a dinosaur or trying to eat his soul?

Tragically hip sang “Courage…it didn’t come,it doesn’t matter. Courage…it couldn’t come at a worse time”

Tod: “Stepping up,not waiting for courage to arrive…it didn’t come,it doesn’t matter.

We are overwhelmed but not broken.
We will meet this chaos on our terms… it couldn’t come at a worse time”

Courage: It didn't come, It doesn't matter.

You’re spitting on the graves of your ancestors and making a mockery of their sacrifices. They fought fascists in WWII… you are a disgrace to them if you become the thing they fought against and many sacrificed their lives for.

Soldier Man fighting on beaches.
Conquers the fascist WWII enemy and takes a snatsie flag home.
Man is welcomed home as a hero.
Man puts the snatsie flag and his soldiers helmet away in basement with his son.

Insanity…

"A Rutgers University professor who taught a course on anti-fascism was blocked from leaving the US for Spain on Wednesday night, according to media reports, hours after Donald Trump hosted a White House roundtable highlighting the impact of antifa - or 'anti-fascist' - far-left activists.
"Mark Bray, an historian who published the 2017 book Antifa: The Anti-Fascist Handbook, and has taught courses on anti-fascism at the New Jersey university, was attempting to board a plane at Newark airport bound for Europe when he was informed at the boarding gate that the reservations for him and his family had been cancelled.
"The professor, nicknamed 'Dr Antifa' by a group of students, had said he was moving to Europe after receiving death threats. Turning Point USA activists have claimed he is a "financier" for the leftwing movement."

This reminds me of all the friends and family I have had to remove from my life recently.

We can have a difference of opinion but when their opinion is that people who are not like them shouldn’t exist… I can’t and won’t support that.

I do not have time for things that have no soul.

"Understand me.
I'm not like an ordinary world.
I have my madness, I live in another dimension and I do not have time for things that have no soul."

Shit.

Pretty sure that’s exclusively republicans.

The republican guy who lowered the age of consent law to 13 after his cousin got caught diddling a minor…

Or all the other pedos that have been caught lately that are aligned with the gop.

This post has nothing sexual about it… you brought sex in.

Right? It’s such a gross question. I’ve never in my life thought to ask someone this question… but I’m not a creepy pervert so…

I’ve also never asked another person if I can invade their space and touch their hair like some do to black women.
It’s mind boggling how gross people can be.

Creep:”What’s in your pants?!”

Me:
*put hands down pants*
Locks eyes. serious stare.
*Pull hands out of pants, throw glitter in the air like a fucking magician*

*jazz hands*

“I got passion in my pants & I ain't afraid to show it, Show it, show it, show it…

*Dance away*

“I'm sexy and I know it!”

I have never asked a stranger what was in their pants. Yet, thousands of people ask me everyday as if that makes it appropriate.

Don’t ask people what’s in their pants…

The song he produces starts st 15:20. Absolutely fascinating watching him produce this pop rock version of Defying Gravity in a day. I’ve loved Josh Ramsey from Mariana’s Trench for a long time. Fabulous Canadian band 🥰
