Waking up with this feeling today that reminds me all too much of the feeling I woke up with on November 9, 2016.

For #women who are also #POC. I feel your anger. I feel your outrage, and I am angered by all those speaking out about their rights being taken while they stood silently for years, comfortable in their power where we were not. I see you. I hear you. I understand. #abortionrights #humanrights #BLM

I’m seeing breaking news about the Supreme Court’s upcoming ruling about #abortion. PLEASE use the hashtag #abortion going forward for those of us who (1) may want to read more about it or (2) filter it out. It’s a hot topic but we all process differently, whether dipping a tie or doing a cannonball. Using a good hashtag is efficient, respectful, caring, and loving.
I would also respectfully request the same for #MAGA, #MAGAt, #GQP, and #Trump.
Thanks ever so much.🌸

newbies:

you've been wondering when the old guard would lose their shit about something, right? it can'ttttt be all sunshine and roses.

here we go.

remember:
be civil
be kind
be trustworthy

everyone you interact with here is a human. everyone has had a rough couple years. breathe before responding.

Solidarity to anyone who is struggling with the news. You are not alone in your outrage. 💚

They will not stop abortion. its just about to get more deadly for women.

Out there, you get a lot of engagement venting about what you oppose, and over time, it trains you. Their algorithms are designed to keep you mad, because when you're mad, you click more, and when you click more, you see more ads.

CoSo isn't like that.

In here, you get a lot more engagement commiserating over what you support. #CoSoTips

Quannah Chasinghorse is breathtaking again, I think she’s so beautiful #MetGala

To those who are new to the CoSo Experience, welcome and thank you for joining us! I am eager for the opportunities to interact with you.

What is here is only what you've brought with you.

Your weapons? You will not need them. ♥️

First, +1 to those of you who dig fashion and are covering the #MetGala. That's awesome!

For those of you who'd rather skip it though, did you know that you can set up TEMPORARY filters in your settings? It's true! #CoSoTips

New Nauts, let me 'splain a little.

CoSo has folks of all stripes. We don't always agree.

We do have an occasionally spoken, but usually unspoken agreement that when we disagree with someone, we keep some things in mind.

My understanding and implementation of it is:

Be civil.
Be honest.
Be trustworthy.
Be empathetic.
Be true to yourself.
Pick your battles.
Remember others are watching and listening.

If someone specific gets your goat constantly, block/mute them, don't lash out.

Love,
🍬
