Healthy love feels like freedom. It feels like two individuals consciously deciding to support each other as individuals together.

30 years ago, I turned 14 in juvie prison. I felt like the whole world was against me & I’d never make it to adulthood.
And now? I’ve been given so many beautiful chances to help people like me, & I love that life gave me a 2nd chance too.

Me to myself when I rock up to a conference with long nails, high heels, big jewelry, brightly colored suits, facial piercing, and visible tattoos:
I am a professional. Therefore, this is what a professional looks like.

Republicans used a series of procedures to remove every bill from my committees, silencing my constituents beyond what they already voted to do.
My constituents elected me to speak on their behalf—in committee & on the floor—and stopping me from doing so is anti-democratic.

“I wish I could have handled this situation privately. That was my intention, but once my attacker made it public, everything changed. By the time I identified my attacker, I was completely drained.”
Meg’s interview for Elle is so good & she touched on so many important points!

Thieves disguised as Boston Police stole $500 million worth of art at the Gardner Museum 23 years ago today.
The Museum is offering a $10 million reward for information leading to the recovery of the stolen works.
No arrests or works have been recovered.

There’s a myth that therapists are “mandatory reporters” of suicidal clients. No. In most places, we’re *not* mandated to report to authorities. We are *permitted* to break confidentiality if danger is imminent. Big difference!

Historically, suicide prevention & suicide loss support has mostly focused on the White population. I started DeeDee's Cry because of the lack of racial equity in this space. Thank you, Sponsors, for recognizing the importance of supporting the work of DeeDee's Cry.

Cost of a single dose of Humira for arthritis:
US: $3,216
Italy: $526
Germany: $420
France: $248
No. Abbvie should not have been able to jack up the price of Humira in the US by over 470% since 2003 - allowing it to make $114 billion in 6 years. We must end this corporate greed.
