Great chess quote! Pins are my favorite chess tactic since they can be on the board the entire game; making a piece powerless. #chess

#HealingHearts Abuse survivors believe they've done something to deserve the treatment they received. That's a lie they were likely told repeatedly. Please remember: "Your story isn't shameful. Their behavior is." #CSASurvivor #Pinks 💛💚💜
You're not "trauma dumping"  when you tell someone what you survived. You're TRUTH DUMPING after years of carrying their secrets to protect their reputation. Your story isn't shameful. Their behavior is.

In October, I’ll have been a chess coach for four years. I spent my childhood competing in chess tournaments, so it’s incredibly special watching kids discover the same excitement, challenge, creativity, and joy I felt at the board all those years ago. ♟️ #Chess #YouthChess

Years ago I taught teens how to write resumes and today I discovered my own resume was score 50% match for a job which I am overqualified by an AI job site. So I guess I need to learn how to write resumes for AI instead of employers now.

Arizona, when the DOJ demanded Arizona’s full voter rolls and Social Security numbers, Fontes stood his ground to protect you. He chose a jail cell over compliance and told them to pound sand. ✊ And the judge tossed the case. Arizona WON! We vote #BlueWaveIn60Days — for Adrian Fontes!

@vōx - The wellness industry loves the idea that every illness has a hidden lesson.

But sometimes the lesson is simply that human bodies are fragile

and society is cruel to people when they become inconvenient.
