  • WTF?! These violence accelerators leaving pallets of bricks need to be found and stopped. People are posting about singular pallets in non construction zones of cities. This does not look like conspiracy theory. #baitbricks

  • I’m struggling with this. I’ve cried watching the murder of George Floyd. I’ve felt helpless and scared for the black boys and men who live in fear. It is unbearable seeing a grown man calling out for his deceased mother as he is treated less than human and his life is snuffed out. I had a thoughtful talk with my eldest son this morning about what we were feeling. This last week I’ve felt the need to look hard at myself and what I am ignorant of when it comes to racism, even as an immigrant with the privilege of education and having lived in diverse communities as East Orange and Brooklyn. I am heartbroken and angry as so many of us are. I am searching for a way to talk to my boys about this. I am searching for the words and actions that rise to push against the racism and ignorance. After hours of reading and watching how we are reacting in pain and anger, I can only start with myself here and it doesn’t feel like enough. My donations don’t feel like enough. So I’ve been reflecting. My heart goes out to every person of color who is enraged and hurt right now. I am listening to Ibram X. Kendi’s book to get perspective and learn to think as an Anti-racist in every thought and action. I have experienced acts of racism, but those incidents pale in comparison. I can’t claim to understand the experience of black Americans. It has been eye opening to me as I’ve listened to this book to look hard at how my thoughts and beliefs, even as a non-white person include ideas that have been handed down from the history of racism in this country.

  • Cubing has gotten serious around here. I woke up after my kiddo around 6am and walked into the dining room to find him working on his time. He’s down to 44 seconds. I’m about 5-10 minutes with my very well written notes. 😂

  • It was 91 degrees out, but we took a walk around our house to admire the little blooms (our hydrangeas are about to bloom) and build a rock bridge across the stream behind our complex. I love this new slow life.

  • Was so excited to get out on my bike that I forgot my bag, flatted out and had to walk 5 miles in bike shoes. But at least I got this picture. Some days are like that. 🤷🏻‍♂️
