I thought chicken n dumplins was the only kind of dumpling until college… A friend took me to a dumpling food place and I was beyond confused to enter an Asian restaurant serving a very different, though equally delicious, type of dumpling.

Sure, going out on a Friday is nice, but have you ever eaten comfort food in bed while indulging in the wholesomeness of the Great British Baking Show?

Finally found a therapist I love in SWVA, and even if I have to drive an hour each way to go in person, DAMN is it worth it.

Started with a new therapist today and he said, “How do you feel about unpacking trauma with me as a male? Because if I’m not the right person, I will not be offended at all.” I felt SO comfortable after he said that. The awareness was everything.

Missing @hunterlyons7 so much today. Can’t believe it’s been 5 years since you left us. What I would do for another hike or Cuz’s trip with you. 💙 Underscores the importance of @TrevorProject’s work, especially in rural places like Appalachia. 🏳️🌈

My hard thing is making myself listen to @GlennonDoyle’s We Can Do Hard Things podcast every week because I know I need to hear it, but it takes so much to just turn the damn thing on.

Being Appalachian and being progressive aren’t mutually exclusive. We can be both.

Pass the bipartisan #VAWA bill because prevention education is the only way we can change the statistics around unhealthy and abusive relationships like we do @Join1Love! @RepMGriffith, please co-sponsor and vote for H.R.1620. #VAWA21

So is Kaepernick taking a knee still an inappropriate way to protest?
