The thing about grief, for me, is that it takes a minute to recognize. And it's not just when someone dies. It's whenever there's change. I'm on my second step right now, and it's not linear, and it's not realistic, it's just how my mind is processing that change. /1

This. I wish this were between me and my doctor. Instead it's a hotbed for the insurance folks who try to tell me what meds I can take, whether I'm able to have any autonomy over my own body.

Only two people should weigh in on a woman's healthcare decision: the woman and her doctor. Period.

LOCK HIM UP ALREADY. He has no regard for the rules.

Not just no, HELL no. You killed four students and now don't want to be held accountable?

@thekroog I agree, it's not just about the T. Which is regulated pretty heavily regardless of what it's used for thanks to athletes overusing it.
It ain't cough syrup, folks. It's lifesaving.

The last writer’s strike I was on Heroes and we all know how that turned out. Give the writers what they deserve!

@SumiBumii This is some of the most beautiful art I've seen in a while! I can only imagine how lovely the person is who created it. You're amazing, and the details on these pieces reflect it. Hang in there!

This week has been difficult on so many levels. School shooting, caregiving for a sick husband, anxiety is a part of my daily life. I'm trying very hard to focus on what's going right, but it's difficult sometimes to not get bogged down with it all.

Disney employees must return to the office at least four days a week, CEO Bob Iger said: "Nothing can replace the ability to connect, observe, and create with peers that comes from being physically together."

Anyone else have a raging back of the eyes and into the ears headache from stress and weather changes? 'cause this girl does.

My husband gets disability. His cost of living increase just went up by 8.7%
I work, and am the only one in my family able to. I worked my way up to where I am. Please let workers get minimum wage raised by at least the 8.7% my husband does.
We could afford to pay our bills.

If you’re a politician or media figure who sets up the LGBTQ community to be hated and feared - not because any of us ever harmed you but because you find it useful - then don’t you dare act surprised when this kind of violence follows.

Don’t you dare act surprised.

[Amber the Mighty @Amberjoh425]

Yes, I read the whole thing. Women are going to die from situations like this because lawmakers are playing God.
That hospital should be lucky they're not being charged with negligent homicide.

An Ohio woman was bleeding profusely for hours after her miscarriage. The ER sent her home anyway.

Legal experts say laws like Ohio's abortion restrictions leave doctors uncertain about what is legal — and can put patients in dangerous situations.

The true hubris of humanity: deciding that what's right for you is right for all, instead of letting every person decide for themselves how they identify, how they love, how they worship (and who). And taking advantage instead of working together. I choose my life. For me.

In honor of my friend, whose ashes are now scattered between those who loved her.

We need caring professionals to help #MentalHealth. Pay them what they're worth, and you'll see a happier.... everywhere.

[Governor Gretchen Whitmer @GovWhitmer]

On #WorldMentalHealthDay, I want to remind all Michiganders that it's okay to ask for help. We know that there is no health without our mental health, and that is why our bipartisan budget is making critical investments in mental health services. I’ll always have your back. 💚

@AlluriaCandles just made my household smell better from a chance encounter with my sister at an Outlander event. Dovahkin smells AMAZING, and this artist needs to keep making these gorgeous candles! #CritterHug #NeedsomeCriticalRoleCandles #smallbusinesswomen #Seattle
