Heard there was a man shot in the street, a girl assaulted at a frat house, an execution being live streamed. Just a quick list of things we have to keep explaining are unacceptable:

Racial discrimination.
Sexual assault and the protection of perpetrators.
Family separation and cruel immigration enforcement.
Dehumanizing immigrants.
Attacks on LGBTQ+ people.
Censoring educators and restricting what people can learn.
Dismantling environmental protections.
Attacking journalists for doing their jobs.
Treating empathy like a character flaw.
Treating accountability like political persecution.
Confusing cruelty with strength.
Calling corruption leadership.
Calling division patriotism.
Calling any criticism an attack on the country.

All while insisting we’re making it great again.

Everything on this list is part of the mental health crisis, and we will continue to stand up for humanity, decency, and care.

Pain doesn’t mean you’re grieving wrong. It’s just attachment. Love leaves a mark. #grief #scatterjoy by @thescatterjoyproject

Unfortunately, there are a lot of boys & men that have created different versions of themselves to fit in and be accepted. And their fear robs them of true masculinity, of standing up for what’s is right, fighting for others, and calling out hurtful behavior and language.

“Be a man” means to be better in this way. To find courage is the face of this kind of fear.

It’ll probably be good for your mental health too. And everyone else’s... by @thescatterjoyproject

Did you know the five stages of grief weren’t created for all types of grief. They were created for people who were processes their own death.

Even the woman who wrote them, Kübler-Ross, said they were never meant to “help tuck messy emotions into neat packages.”

She’s brilliant, we just collectively messed it up and misused it.

She also said this though… “The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths.” by @thescatterjoyproject

If you visit the storefront in Columbus you’ll find a new hoodie to wrap up our “these roses” suicide prevention month campaign. You’ll also find a vintage laundry cart filled with random designs from past collections all for $20. That’s all hats, shirts, sweatshirts, anything you find in the cart is on sale at $20. Happy digging. See you soon. by @thescatterjoyproject
