Getting after it.

Brad Montague, the creative genius behind Kid President (2014), sketched these pieces as part of a broader article titled Goodness is Not Powerless. The article discusses how do everyday people influence change despite rampant societal messaging.

This is the most Wednesday, Wednesday, in the history of Wednesdays.

There's a day of hope

May I live to see,

When our hearts are happy

And our souls are free. 🎶

Not a coincidence that the President mentioned Stacey Abrams.

New level of work efficiency unlocked: when people ask me questions these days I just say “what is your base case scenario here?” and I’m often able to execute it! 🩷 #GetToThePoint 🕊️#WithLove

Yo dj, play that back.

I didn’t say I was questioning life.

I didn’t say I look to politicians.

It’s statements like this that I have to opt out from. 🧗🏾‍♀️

Progress toward #OptingOut:

In 2016, after a term appointment in Florida for national politics, I put my foot through a bookcase of that I owned, because I had so much anger at how the rest of my life would be affected by a Trump Administration.

No truer way to realize “you’re harming self while others are fine” than to literally harm your own things. I met the moment by becoming a business owner and stayed in politics so have a first hand pulse on it all.

It’s 9 years later. If anything, civility has gotten worse in the west, and many people are where I was 9 years ago. My world heroes have all died. And while I can always live now in a way that allows those close to be to know they are loved and protected, and while I can work to do the same for myself, it’s so hard not to glib statements re: the state of things in America.

I’m getting there, grace with it all/speaking in a way that eases rather than contributes to suffering, but damn if it’s not hard along the way.

Staring at the ceiling with the lyrics to Pop Smoke in my head. At 1:30am. Cool, cool.
