Hi posting pals,

With the recent Supreme Court rulings in addition to everything else going on, we know it can be a stressful time to be online. There's a real fear among many people this is going to be 2020 v.3.0, and turning into another Summer of Rage. With that in mind, we encourage you all to do the following:
  • Make sure you're checking up on yourself and your loved ones
  • Step back from the internet for a while every day, if possible
  • Take mental health breaks from the news/social media
  • Stay hydrated! Drink water as much as possible. Here's what the Mayo Clinic recommends: https://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/nutrition-and-healthy-eating/in-depth/water/art-20044256
  • Get some exercise in, even if it's just a walk around the block each day.
  • Go outside, take a walk, be with yourself or your loved ones/pets. Try to get some sunshine on your body. We recommend looking up at the sky when you do. When humans are depressed or feeling down, we tend to look at the ground. Looking at the sky may help lift your mood a bit.
  • If you can afford to, take some time off work to decompress
  • Get as much rest as possible
  • If you want to commit to activism, do so safely. Check in with your local non-profits to see if there's ways you can help vulnerable communities

If you want to donate to abortion providers, we have found this link that lists them state by state: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1T-aDTsZXnKhMcrDmtcD35aWs00gw5piocDhaFy5LKDY/

Please note that we found this list from a reputed provider and can't make any sort of guarantees on the quality of it.

Most of all, and we can't stress this enough, be safe and take care of yourselves.

I give your invention the worst grade imaginable: An A-minus-minus!

Seriously, go outside and touch some grass. Go lay out under the stars and just look at space for a while (Leave the cellphone off, so your eyes will adjust to the dark. The stars can be amazing.)

Breathe deep and enjoy the quiet darkness.
