can't shake the weight of living

everything right now is temporary and that thought in itself is both utterly terrifying and completely comforting

[Dr. Nicole LePera @Theholisticpsyc]

Childhood trauma comes back as a reaction, a symptom, or a core belief.

A THREAD 🧵:

This is an earthquake — for what it portends for the future not only of Roe, but of *all* implied fundamental rights, and for the stunning breach of the Court’s norms of confidentiality.

And whatever you think of the leak, the former has *everything* to do with the latter.

[Steve Vladeck @steve_vladeck]

We talk a lot about freedom in this country. We don't talk enough about how much that freedom *depends upon* ensuring that those around us with (and from) whom we differ have that very same freedom.

When we limit others' freedom ostensibly to preserve our own, we undermine both.

“This case is a disaster for the rule of law and a grave disservice to women in Texas, who have a right to control their own bodies. I will not stand by silently as a State continues to nullify this constitutional guarantee. I dissent.” — Justice Sotomayor

Hey, Bulldogs!

Hey, Bulldogs!

Hey, Bulldogs!

21 years ago I nearly died because I didn’t know if things could change.
I sometimes picture myself at that time, and try and give younger me the simplest and most accessible truth that could offer hope.

finding out about a memory you suppressed due to trauma is wild

putting your own accomplishments on your fridge just hits different. ya know, it’s okay to be proud of yourself and all the things - big or small - that you are achieving in your life. hang it on the fridge. be proud of yourself.

Reminder: Cops are not supposed to kill guilty people either. Cops are not judge, jury and executioner. That is why we have a justice system.⁠ #JusticeForDaunteWright

[Be A King @BerniceKing]

And you also don’t understand that your question should be, “How could the police have apprehended him without killing him?”

Because a badge shouldn’t be a license to kill.

[Be A King @BerniceKing]

If your response to the death of a 20 year-old Black man, who was pulled over by police for an air freshener violation, is “he should have complied,” you don’t understand the fear that Daunte was likely feeling in his encounter with police 10 miles from the Derek Chauvin trial.

update: she said we were slacking on our case briefs so she cut down the questions so today was a win

[hannah @hannah_blount]

property prof started lecture yesterday w how she’s “very unimpressed” with us so i’m excited to see how she chooses to crush the very little soul we have left this am

[hannah @hannah_blount]

she decided to end our lecture on the rule against perpetuities with “idk y’all go make sense of that haha bye oh and read the next 40 pages” so yeah what a great day

[hannah @hannah_blount]

just for another day

[hannah @hannah_blount]

it’s also unbearable living with the fact that i had to “say goodbye” through facetime. i didn’t get to hold his hand or tell him that it was going to be okay.

[hannah @hannah_blount]

thinking about how i’ll never get to talk to my dad again is so suffocating...there are so many things i wish i could tell him
