“Girl with the dogs” on YouTube - thought it was just me and my partner, happy to hear we’re not the only ones coping by watching dog (and cat and occasionally duck!) grooming videos, they are surprisingly soothing!

There is still so much beauty & wonder in our world. Taking a moment to breathe & remember that, because here on the ground it’s way too easy to lose perspective ✨🌏🪐

Freddie Mercury didn't go into the studio and nail the vocals for "The Show Must Go On" in one take while dying of AIDS for you to despair and give up now. Take the time you need, but then get up and get back out there. The show must go on.

Couldn’t agree more, it’s genuinely mortifying to be an American right now, I’d never want anyone to think I agree with any of this.

GLENN: Why don't you wear a suit? You're at the highest level in this country's office & you refuse to wear a suit. A lot of Americans have problems with you not respecting the office. ZELENSKYY: I will wear a costume after this war will finish. Maybe something like yours. Maybe something better.

Sometimes this is what it’s been feeling like as a mental health provider rn, maybe less self hatred than a sort of helpless constant state of horrified emotional overload. I’m in my freeze era.

Confirmation bias - you make a bad decision. When it becomes apparent, you refute, ignore, and distort anything that suggests you were wrong. It’s exhausting to watch this from the outside, but I think we shouldn’t be surprised, this is going to happen a lot.

Dangerous levels of paranoia, easily susceptible to conspiracy theories, past history of enjoying cruelty to animals, drug addiction- I’ve seen this many times before but not often outside of locked settings.
