For those of you not on twitter-- Twitter decided to turn off the ability to see anyone's likes that were not your own. A lot of people took issue with that-- including David as you can tell.

The one and only Rosie Carnahan-Darby has asked for some help regarding getting a petition signed to save the natural wonder of Pupu Springs from mining! Wanna help our Captain's wonderful wife out? Please sign the petition if you are able/willing-- warning it does require a name, email and your "location" but you can choose international, it doesn't have to be in NZ. It's for a good cause!

== June 12 Pulse Nightclub Remembrance ==
I realize this isn't OFMD related, but it's pride month, and it is queer related and I know it's affecting a lot of you. Just wanted to take a moment to remember those lives lost at Pulse on this day in 2016. Rest In Power Friends.

Hey there lovelies. We've made it half way through another week. I know it's been a rough one, but you all are doing great, you're persevering.
Tonight I wanted to share some graphics I found from this particular account that really helped me feel a bit stronger today...they're simple, but they make a big impact. Remember that you are doing the best you can in everything you're dealing with, and even if progress is slow, even if you have to take a step back. it's still happening.
Don't give up on yourselves lovelies. You're doing everything you can, and that's what matters. Sending so much love, and hugs your way. Reach out if you need support <3
Tonight's theme is Goofy Men with Hats. Two days of Taika as Hemi from Space Waltz in a row, you ask? Yes. What of it? I love the oblivious goober.

Miss you lovelies, sending so many good vibes your way.
This poll 👆 brings me back to when Ryan says the thing about the TVGuide poll being about the “Best relationships that are happening or should happen?” (From 2020) and this is what he says… and now look at us…. 4 Years later.. still on the “TOP FLOOR” as Ryan tells us.

== Love Notes ==
Happy Taika Tuesday Lovelies. I gotta be honest, I'm not sure what to say tonight. I'm feeling very raw about a lot of different things, fandom related and home related.
So tonight, what I'd like to do is share with you a mindfulness poem by Thich Nhat Hahn called "The River of Feelings".
" There is a river of feelings within us, and every drop of water in that river is a feeling.
To observe our feelings, we sit on the bank of the river and identify each feeling as it flows by.
It may be pleasant, unpleasant, or neutral.
One feeling lasts for a while, and then another comes.
Meditation is to be aware of each feeling.
Recognize it, smile to it, look deeply into it, and embrace it with all our heart.
If we continue to look deeply, we discover the true nature of that feeling, and we are no longer afraid, even of a painful feeling.
We know we are more than our feelings, and we are able to embrace each feeling and take good care of it.
- Thich Nhat Hanh"
Our feelings are very important lovelies. Bad feelings are just as important as good ones. The more we understand them, the more we understand ourselves and others as well.
Please be kind to yourself tonight crew. Tomorrow is a new day.
