"I shut my eyes and I am seeing what no one else sees. I am feeling the flex and rhythm of reality, the contractions of possibility." (p. 17) I just started @nkjemisin.bsky.social's "The City We Became", only a chapter in, but loving it so much. the language, the imagery, the ideas, the NYC.

Reminder: When you feel overwhelmed, you will choose a healthy way to cope. Its healthy to take a break to rest or have fun. You will not feel guilty when you do. You can lean on others for support. You're not alone in this. You choose to be optimistic. I'm proud of you

i'm not acting in a way q actively contrary to how i want, just not intentionally. incredibly hard for me to act/exist in the "real world" moment to moment & also apply / integrate my "big picture" to/with this moment. i can do big picture or deep details but struggle to keep both in mind at once 2/

challenge: when i take time and space to journal, and think big, i get inspired, and have lots of ideas about how to live in more alignment with my values and desires, and projects i want to make space for, but in the day to day, i get kind of lost / disconnected from that (1/?)

Sometimes I post on social about my feelings or journey and think “why here and not my journal”? Why publicly? Because we don’t talk about the hard middle parts. We don’t have a lot of examples that say, candidly- I’m human and I am a work in progress. So just be that and hope it becomes the norm.

Container is being held up to the light by a light-skinned hand in the upper left corner of the photo. they are arranged in mostly chromatic order (going clockwise around the circle) clear, purple, pink, red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and then opaque colors (so harder to decipher in this picture) black, grey, white

Tylenol posted an official statement as well as a detailed reply to Trump’s unfounded claims that their product shouldn’t be taken by pregnant women as it can cause autism in babies. www.tylenol.com/frequently-a...
TYLENOL
We stand with science, and we stand with you.
For generations, families have trusted TYLENOL® when it matters most.
Tylenol is one of the most studied medications in history-and is safe when used as directed by expecting mothers, infants and children.
The facts remain unchanged: over a decade of rigorous research, endorsed by leading medical professionals, confirm there is no credible evidence linking acetaminophen to autism.
Acetaminophen is used worldwide as a first line of defense for pain relief and fever reduction, at the recommendation of independent public health and leading medical professionals and in accordance with the product label.
High fevers and pain are widely recognized as potential risks to a pregnancy if left untreated, especially in the first trimester. Remember to talk to your doctor.
We prioritize science as the core of how we provide care, and that will never change.
Have questions about recent media coverage of TYLENOL®? Click hereShould I be concerned about acetaminophen and autism?
We understand the recent media coverage you're reading may cause concern or lead to questions. We want to make sure you have the answers.
Here is what we can tell you:
Credible, independent scientific data continues to show no proven link between taking acetaminophen and autism.
Medical and public health organizations agree.
This includes:
• American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists
• Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine
• Autism Science Foundation
• American Academy of Pediatrics
Our best advice? Talk to your healthcare professional before taking or administering acetaminophen.
As our label says, 'If pregnant or breast-feeding, talk to your healthcare professional before use.
Your health provider is best positioned to advise whether taking this medication is appropriate based on your unique medical condition.
If you are treating your little one with acetaminophen, please know that there is no credible science that shows taking acetaminophen causes autism. When searching what medicine may be suitable for infants and children, the best thing you can do is to speak with your healthcare provider - they will guide you on what is best for your child's pain and fever. Be sure to always follow the dosage guidelines provided on the product label or by your healthcare provider. 1.2) For Infants' TYLENOL® in particular, you will need to ask a doctor for dosing information if your child is under 2 years of age.
You can also find important safety information and resources on treating fever on our website.
