== Love Notes ==

Hey there lovelies. We're coming up on a new week here soon. I know the past few have been doozies. Something I wanted to remind you of tonight... is just how fucking powerful you are.

You continue to get through every goddamn day like a fucking champ. Whether you are crying or sleeping or busting ass, you are still here and I am so damn proud of you.

You mean something. You matter, and you would be surprised how much you can survive when you have to.

So no matter what, you keep going, okay? If you need to take some time off, if you need to rest, or reach out for help-- do it, do what you need to do. If you feel unsafe, reach out, there are a lot of groups out there who can help.

We love you, we want you to be happy, and be yourself, and most of all we want you to be safe.

You are made of love, and kindness, and that is so much stronger than any hate thrown your way.

You are beautiful. Don't forget that.

Hey crew. I'm so very sorry. I have not been in a good headspace these past two weeks. Between my home life, and work, and everything going on here in the US, I have had to limit what I do in a day because I've been burning the candle at both ends and there hasn't been much left of me. Thank you to everyone who was sweet and sent me love, I promise i'll respond soon. I've had the next 3 recaps half done for days but just haven't been able to get up the strength to finish them, and I do apologize for that.

== Love Notes ==

Hey lovelies, I have been constantly thinking of you all the past two weeks. I am trying to keep my spirits up and share things when I can. I hope you know that no matter what, you are perfect the way you are, and that the actions of a certain US president don't define you. AT ALL. Please remember that what's going on in the US is a dying breed trying desperately to gain back the control they lost with progress, and so many of you are doing so much to prevent it. You're doing all you can. Remember to rest, people are still fighting even when you rest. I know it feels so hard right now, but please don't give up okay? Love you crew, since I'm so behind I'll be doing some shorter love notes til I catch up again.
