Here's an #adhd and #anxiety hack. I have a bird feeder right outside my office window-- like three feet from my desk chair. Having something joyfully distracting so easily accessible makes my day SO much easier. Birdwatching is the best stim. 😍
If y'all, like me, have better things to do than read the entire indictment, I believe this is The Best summary on the internet. (read the whole thread!)
I LITERALLY stopped working on my memo so I could read this indictment.
I am on page 24 and JESUS LUPITA NYONG'O CHRIST.
HOW this man still has the capacity to shock me after everything that's happened, i'll never know.
