My favorite photo of Dad and Nichelle Nichols on set. The importance of Nichelle's legacy cannot be over-emphasized. She was much loved and will be missed.

BFF had 5 kids/5 years. She wanted a tubal ligation after 5th. Her request had to be signed by hubby & approved by hospital board. Denied bc she wasn’t 30. Within a week hubby had a vasectomy she didn’t have to approve. When women talk about choice it’s about more than abortions.

I share this for anyone dealing with #grief or struggling with #depression. Shit can hit you out of nowhere. Even those of us thought of as strong get knocked to our knees by seemingly innocuous things like the spice and musk of expensive cologne.

I don’t know what my first daddy smelled like - he died when I was 2, so I’ve never dealt with this kind is sensory connection to #grief before. Fuck me.

So men’s department smells just like my dad who died a month ago. Nothing like ugly crying and hyperventilating in public.

How not to write a press release: “Our entire department is thankful the officers did not sustain any life threatening injuries.”
Help us empathize with those impacted and bring comfort to them, and help us remember them when it’s time for tough choices. #VoteThemOut

Dear gods, let us not turn away from the tragedy, but open our eyes to the leaders who will not stand up for children’s lives. Give us the strength to use our voices for those who no longer can to demand change. Turn these #thoughtsandprayers into action through us.

Ladies, shit is about to turn into our worst nightmares, especially in places like Texas. 1. Do NOT discuss your plans *or* offer help to anyone specific on social media. 2. DELETE your period tracker apps, even in Apple Health. 3. No electronic records. Use encrypted messaging.

My (step)dad died a week ago today, and my heart hurts. My first daddy died when I was 2.5yo. My dad has been in my life since I was almost 5. He's all I've ever known.He was only 67. It all seems so unfair.

Watch this and look deeper into what’s happening. They’re doing it on purpose. The fucked up Covid response in 2020 for the same reason. The GOP has sold their souls, and there’s no one they won’t duck over to regain power.

There have been many meditations, studies and first hand accounts around the catalysts for acts of extraordinary moral and physical courage. In the end, it seems the single greatest cause for the overwhelming number of the most selfless acts that humans can commit is Love.

Spiders need a place to live too. If they stay on their side of the room, I don't even bother evicting them. Live and left live. This is a powerful analogy.
