#Jokesters Good Wednesday🐫Morning all☀️☕️☕️🥔 Wishing everyone a great day🤗💙💪🏼🗳️💪🏼💙 Come on broccoli🥦 You can do it🤭😂

I've had a couple of conversations recently that have surprised me in a good way. They have given me hope that there is still kindness, compassion, empathy and understanding out there, despite our troubles. In every interaction there is a chance for intervention. Have hope, be kind, smile it helps.

I know, you've heard it before. Battles being fought that you can't see, be kind etc. There are battles being fought where the person doesn't know what they are fighting, how or if they will win. Moments of kindness can make a huge difference. Make a moment for someone, it will make a difference. 🙏

A city that once held over 15,000 residents collapsed as businesses closed and population fled over the following decades. It is said that racism is expensive, my friends. It's true. What was once a vibrant place to live is now a ghost town. (cont) allthatsinteresting.com/cairo-illinois

Imagine waking up after Election Day and the biggest story is historic voter participation. Millions showed up, stood in line, mailed ballots, voted early, and made themselves impossible to overlook. Be part of that story. #Pinks 📰

@rjtinman.bsky.social Morning my friend! In Brenda's absence I decided to do a cafe on the corner and serve breakfast and regular coffee tomorrow. Could you help pass the word to members? 😊

Lovely traditional beach huts… such a shame that they have to be padlocked with a bar, not just a lock and key. People will take from others and ruin their property just because. Lovely day out though!

Women can be raped in rooms full of witnesses or behind fraternity doors, report it, name the men, and still watch the institutions with the power to act do nothing. I was drugged and raped for hours on a college campus while people watched. I reported it. /1

⚠️Great explanation on the history of lynching. She’s right, many people do not know the full story of what happened. These were literally terrorizing events where the town was entertained. #Pinks

A couple weeks ago I noticed a sign on the road that said "Republican puppies for sale” and then today the sign said "Democrat puppies for sale. I stopped and asked the breeder why the puppies changed parties and he said, “Well, ma’am now they have their eyes open."

I know this won’t happen, but the entire WH press corps should walk out. Trump craves attention and is obsessed with his coverage. Not covering his Oval Office Lie Sessions would hurt him more than just about anything.

Finding some time to relax and let go of the daily grind isn’t easy, but it is important. Prioritise yourself sometimes and make time to recharge. #bekind #bekindtoyourself

What if the moments you barely notice are the ones making your life beautiful? The familiar voice. The dog at your feet. A favorite song. We get so busy waiting for something big, we miss the little life happening beautifully right now. Don’t wait for extraordinary. Notice it. #JayesMorningLight
