The Art of the Re-Come Out: Siren Thick on Labels, Liberation, and the “Rabid” Joy of the Job

Since I keep telling everyone to keep fun in their lives…
Here’s some of mine. 💚
Also, I’m realizing now that I spent a surprising amount of May upside down. 😂🤸♀️
10/10. Would recommend.

Taking a moment away from politics to just say how much I enjoyed watching Alysa Liu when her gold medal last night. Such a pleasure to watch someone taking so much joy in just being. What a wonderful example for all of us, but particularly for girls & women everywhere.

Joy is not betrayal.
You don't have to prove that you care by suffering continuously.
A ridiculous joke doesn't make climate change less real.
There is room for concern and delight in the same life.

Your job doesn’t define your right to feel good.
Tip: Schedule one small joy into your day—walk, doodle, dance.
What brings you joy? Go do it for 5 mins.

Today’s self-care goal:
Have fun without trying to make it productive.
Not every hobby needs to become a side hustle.
Not every walk needs to count as exercise.
Not every book needs to teach you something.
Sometimes joy is enough.
In fact, I’d argue it’s essential.

🎉 Feel Good Friday
Today’s self-care goal:
Laugh.
Watch something funny.
Call a friend who makes you laugh.
Share a ridiculous meme.
Laughter won’t solve every problem.
But it can give your nervous system a much-needed break.
