If ever a day was desperately needed this year, it might be this one, Gem! Today will bring in some freaking understanding!!! Finally! If you made it this far, you’ve escaped the murder hornets and whatever else Hunger Games slash zombie apocalypse slash renaissance plague style mayhem has been thrown at us the past few years. You’ve got courage in spades, but today won’t be about courage. It’ll be about compassion. These past few years have been hella tough on all, and today will be about being able to connect and empathize with each other. Let’s call a time-out on the insanity and try to find to connect with each other like fellow human beings rather than enemies. Be kind, receive kindness, and if all else fails, we can drown our collective angst with some Thirsty Thursday cocktails or chocolate.
