“When a good person dies there should be an impact on the world. Somebody should notice. Somebody should be upset.” -Dr. Cameron, House (2.1)


You do realize that she dedicated it to him right?

Thoughts and prayers for Donald J Trump



I appreciate that she said “I dedicate this prize…to President Trump for his decisive support of our cause!” Let’s try not to diminish her accomplishments by only referencing it in relationship to him losing.

This recognition of the struggle of all Venezuelans is a boost to conclude our task: to conquer Freedom. We are on the threshold of victory and today, more than ever, we count on President Trump, the people of the United States, the peoples of Latin America, and the democratic…



“I can't STAND the word empathy, actually. I think empathy is a made-up, new-age term, & it does a lot of damage. I much prefer the word compassion, & I much prefer the word sympathy. Empathy is where you try to feel someone's pain and sorrows as if they're your own. compassion…


Exactly. #CharlieKirk was good precisely because he was unwavering about having open dialogue with people. It did not matter whether you agreed or disagreed (& I often disagreed). To me, this is a tragedy of cowardice vs courage. Be courageous.

Caregiving is one of the most rewarding, challenging, and intense things I’ve ever done, but I knew it wasn’t everything I wanted from my love of memory care. I wanted to do more. As a caregiver, I spent a lot of time training new people, coaching coworkers, and even arguing…

That first cold email is insanely stressful!


I had a business a long time ago. 11 months face first into Bankruptcy & 1.5 years living in my car (voluntarily). I didn't think I would ever try again. It was too humiliating. Now... well, surprisingly, I learned things I didn't appreciate until now. Better late than never...
