To Do: Tah Dah!

[stresskitten]

Because once again today the internet is showing the world to be a despicable place, I am going to institute a social media moratorium. I feel a little bad about that, as I have the privilege of being able to turn off my exposure to the ick... but as I have said before, there's little I can do but to keep on doing as I have done. Educate the young in empathy, diversity, and tolerance. Apply kindness and consideration to all I pass, which includes making a special effort to smile at those who are of different skin tones or whose clothes denote a different culture, and to call out racist language, assumptions, and media tropes when I see them, as well as try and identify those illiberal feelings and responses in myself.

So, in response to a feeling of despair, I am going to put productivity on my list today. I haven't done a to do: tah dah! list in a while, so hopefully this will be cathartic.
