Goodgawd. Thank you for the link. I just finished the chapter in Grant Wahl’s posthumous collection about him and thought, “Maybe Suarez is just misunderstood.” But nope. Garbage human.

I try hard not to delve in conspiracy theories, so I will just ask: Has there been any deep reporting on the overlap of Epstein clients, corrupt FIFA officials, and Russian oligarch money. (My theory is Putin knows the connections and is using it as leverage over the President.)

I know you haven’t solicited advice, so this isn’t that, just maybe some inspiration: When I get like this, I just start ranting about how and why I’m out of ideas, and most of the time, this leads me someplace productive.

Yes. And it's why it's so disappointing to see elected officials cower to the administration. If you're in a position where you're gonna suffer less harsh consequences than someone else, that's one big way you can use your privilege to step up and help others in times like these.

An eloquent image: Setting aside the content under the tarp for a moment, teens were asked to make art expressing what it is like to be a teen, and the end result was a mural wrapped in a tarp by adults. I bet a lot of teens would find this expressive of their experience.

I go through this when school gets out/starts back up. My coping mechanism is checklists. I capture my potential anxieties at the time they arise, and can then relax in the moment when I need to implement the new routine as a check off the steps on my list. Also, congratulations and good luck!
