I hear you. Make sure you take that time when they are in bed to feel all the things you need to feel. It’s vital you look after yourself as well. Sending you love and light to get through this.

How I'm dealing with my stress: I bought a 3d printer and am producing 100 whistles at a time. 1000 heading to Minneapolis tomorrow.

Graphic with a blue background and large white text reading β€œDEAR AMERICAN FRIENDS.” Below is a screenshot of a post explaining that Canada does not have CBS, that a β€œ60 Minutes” episode aired normally in Canada, and stating that Canadian networks are not subject to U.S. government interference. The post ends with β€œWe’re not under a dictatorship. You are.”

Update on the Somerville Dog Mayor race. My dog’s boyfriend, Wally Pascal, placed 5th… thanks to everyone who rallied and barked the vote to get him there. The mayoral seat was won by Jake, a 10-yr old mix of all the goodest boys … and lifelong resident of Somerville.

If you live in Boston area - Somerville, Cambridge, Medford, etc. and you need a little joy… this pawlitical pawty at Remnant Brewery in Somerville’s Bow Market (Union Square) this coming Tuesday will provide a nice little distraction for a couple hours. Free ice cream for the pups, raffles, & more!

Disney Stock Takes a Devastating Nosedive as Major Stars Call For Boycott Major Disney+ stars and iconic ABC creators have called for a boycott of Disney, pushing fans to cancel subscriptions, leading to a stock nosedive.

🚨UPDATE: In response to the boycott that erupted over the weekend, Disney decided to update the cancellation process on their website, making it MORE DIFFICULT FOR THEIR SUBSCRIBERS TO STOP GIVING THEM MONEY.

This underhanded strategy hasn’t retained customers as they hoped.

Little Wally is only 18 votes away from the top 5 for local Somerville Dog Mayor election. His mum needs some joy after TWO rounds of layoffs (2 companies) in 12 months. Voters don’t have to live here. Could you help Wally get those 18 votes by voting & sharing? docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Yeah, no one knows when/if the other is flirting so they end up in this endless loop of friend zoning each other unless one is forward enough to say it out loud. I see it more in my autistic community but also a bit in my ADHD community. Friendly to many ND seems to read as flirty to many NT πŸ«£πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

Nope, still not H1B visas. Crew uses either 0-2 or P visas. In rare cases an H2B is used, but it’s a more complicated application and doesn’t make the most sense for touring acts.

They use a 0-1B visa which isn’t part of this. They’ll be fine.
