Every effort matters, no matter how small.

Is there a neglected sidewalk island near your home? Plant rosemary and thyme plants.

Is there any water near your home? If not, find a shallow bowl at Goodwill, put some stones in it, and start a watering hole for insects, birds, and critters.

Volunteer to help plant trees and remove invasive species, pick up garbage from streams, maintain trails and green areas

These are all things we can do today or in small increments as time allows.

This is the Republican modus operandi:

"This is the fantasy we want to believe. And if the facts do not support our fantasy, we will accuse you of lying to us and call for your death."

1. Boycott and talk to others around you as to why you are boycotting.

2. Create fake amazing resumes, apply for high-level jobs at Starbucks, Amazon, etc.

3. Waste their time with interviews, then bail out. Tell them you changed your mind because they have a toxic reputation.

4. If you already work for one of these corporations, sabotage their operations. There's manuals out there on how to conduct sabotage, but it can be as simple as relaying the wrong day or time for meetings to waste everyone's time, or finding things that are not exactly according to policy and making a big deal about the importance of following policy to the letter, etc.

I'm so sorry. I hate playing therapist at work.

I feel like they just weren't prepared to answer my question, so they just said whatever came to mind.

This person is not stupid-- rather, always a huge hypocrite.

If they come to Seattle we're going to go fucking insane. His Tacoma rally back in 2016 was completely packed.

I had a chat with someone recently who said "I'm right-leaning, but I'm starting to miss Biden..." and I asked:

"Why are you right-leaning?"

And it's like they short-circuited right in front of me.

Normally, they hit me back with misguided claims that Republicans are good for the economy, or that they are fiscal conservatives, or something about Russia or China-- but we are both tax accountants and we understand very intimately how fucked the US economy really is, while coping with the reality that our retirement savings are pretty much gone and unlikely to recover.

Sometimes, they'll say something about immigration. However, some of our best team members self-deported due to the threat of forceful deportation on their families, so things are really bad at our public accounting firm and getting worse as people burn out from the increased work loads.

Or on occasion, they'll spout some platitudes about the US Constitution, Veterans, or All-American values, but obviously Republicans do not give a fuck about any of that.

So finally they splutter:

".. traditions are important to me."

And I'm like, "What kind of traditions?"

And they say:

"... Easter and Christmas."

In my opinion, people that consider themselves right-leaning simply like to complain and complain and complain about things they do not bother to educate themselves about, while fully expecting everyone else to look out for them when they are actively sabotaging every effort made to improve our nation.

Bro, Republicans ain't sending NOBODY to study.

These athletes got in through their own hard work. Even if isn't entirely academic, they are still learning about macros, nutrition, and the human body.

Republicans want people to be uneducated and stupid, because those are the type people who vote against their own best interests.

This is a great example of why immigrants bringing their customs and food to another country can lead to great things.

Best tacos ever.

This guy is a satire poster mocking the type of posts you see on LinkedIn all the time loudly bragging about being sociopaths and workaholics.

It's so infuriating.

The reward for doing your job efficiently is more more fucking work.

Learned that the hard way.

I was just talking with my sister recently about our life-long strong feelings of rejection.

We both have ADHD and we're medicated, but we didn't start treatment until late into our lives (I was 33 when I first got diagnosed).

We speculate that because we struggle with executive dysfunction, we end up trapped in cycles of shame with the people in our lives. It's really hard to love someone with severe ADHD or depression because any little thing can set back progress.

My sister and I both get easily overwhelmed by choices, options, priorities, tasking-- even just thinking is exhausting.

Because each brain is unique, the way that ADHD impacts you is different from one person to another, but for me it manifests into all of my emotions hitting me all at the same time, no matter what emotion makes the most sense. It's horrible!

Just being awake exhausted me until I started taking medication and going to cognitive behavioral therapy-- and it ain't cheap, let me tell you.

Before treatment, my family and friends would try their best but one bad interaction could easily send me into a spiral of rejection and self-neglect. I feel more in control nowadays but it's always a work in progress.

I just tell myself to try to do a little bit better every day, because you have to have a lot of compassion for yourself and others around you.

It's hard to ask others to love you when you don't have a mental disability, it's even harder when you do have one.

Please try to be compassionate towards any people you know who may be trapped in this cycle.

And if you are trapped in it, please know that healing begins with you loving and taking care of yourself, even if you can only manage a tiny little bit each day.

I would say that is unlikely.

I work with a lot of really really old CPAs and lawyers, and they are just completely delusional about how hard things really are for younger generations.

"Have you tried working harder?"

"How come you haven't bought a house? We pay you [not] well!"

"My children are struggling too, I had to buy each of them their homes. Maybe ask your [destitute] parents for help?"

"Back in my day, we worked so much harder. You guys have it so easy! By the way, I cannot open this PDF and I need you to work 70hrs this week."

"There is a right way to doing things-- even if that way completely fucks you over because you have no labor protections."

I love people from Finland.

You are all like seals, letting the bad vibes roll off your back.

Also, always nibbling on fish.
