good afternoon.

I’d like to say that it is 100% okay to unplug for a little while.

The news topics as of late... all of them... have been very heavy... very time-changing... very sad... very scary.

it’s GREAT to be informed. but it’s also good to maintain mental health. —
I, for one, feel emotions very heavily & it consumes my entire thoughts thinking about everything going on right now. It makes me feel very.. heavy.

And it’s just been back to back to back and it can be a bit traumatic and quite triggering.

Basically—
If current events are triggering you, please know and understand you are not less of an activist or less ‘caring’ if you need to take a bit just to collect yourself.

This is a VERY heavy time!
Please take care of yourselves!❤️
This thread was not a free pass for white people and non-Blacks to have an excuse to turn a blind eye & ignore today’s climate. Lmao.

This thread was for Black people who have seen/experienced this hate against our people too much, too often, in too short of a time.
