+ Being outdoors and with nature
+ Spending time by the sea
+ Finally visiting restaurant @offbeet_southsea that we've wanted to go to for a while and the kiddos loved it!
+ Celebrating the Black cultural festival in Southampton with my blended family
+ Visiting @johnhansardgallery
+ Spending quality time with @danjamesagain and watching films
+ Reconnecting with family and sharing memories

Happy Anniversary to my best friend, soul mate, zombie apocalypse wingman, incredible husband @danjamesagain

Together, we walked down the aisle to this song, after tying our forever.

Thank you to @yanny_tokyo for capturing our love so beautifully

$Great question. Also, it’s one thing to personally not choose to vote for whatever reason (whether presidential or otherwise/midterms/local ballot measures), and it’s another thing when people normalize voter intimidation/voter suppression/violence/destruction of peoples casted ballots. Especially when ur also talking about races including house ones where candidates win/lose even down to half of 1 percent of a vote etc. Next thing u know some ppl out here r going to be praising firebombing filled ballot boxes as a form of liberation/resistance. And then complain about fascism. People will rightfully criticize institutional abandonment/failures, yet will symbolically and physically abandon others (in their own communities) just the same. If our “culture of care” faultlines/humanity wasn’t already evident to people during the first waves of pre-vaccine covid when ex: “New York City is still using refrigerated trucks to store bodies of coronavirus victims, more than a year after they were first set up as temporary morgues as deaths surged at at the height of the pandemic. The Federal Emergency Management Agency sent 85 refrigerated trucks to serve as temporary morgues last year as COVID-19 deaths overwhelmed the city’s permanent morgues and filled storage spaces in many hospitals to capacity.” And then still wonder why we live in a society where showing up for others/engaging in custodial governance has become fractured/polarizing. And then become really comfortable vilifying how people show up. If they show up at all. Here is some surface information about what happens if you’re worried about tracking your ballot and or curious about the hundreds of mail in/absentee ballots damaged yesterday. As always do ur own research.$
