I've Kept Succulents Alive For Over Two Months, And For That I Deserve A Gold Star, Thank You Very Much.

Good morning, my doves! I had the ultra-unfortunate experience this morning of my alarm going off and me thinking “ugh, why is my alarm going on a Saturday morning?” It was, dear reader, not Saturday morning. So yes, I’ve already been existentially let down today, so we can only go up from here.

INTERNET, AHOY!

• Kudos to Salesforce for being one of the few companies to actually do something about the insane Texas anti-abortion law: Salesforce offers to relocate employees and their families after Texas abortion law goes into effect (CNBC)

• And why does their concrete action in response to a draconian law that creates vigilantes to police women’s bodies (and those that support them)? This:Texas wanted to be the tech haven of the U.S. Its new abortion bill and other measures are causing workers to rethink their moves. (The Washington Post)

• I have so many questions: Help! I Couldn't Stop Writing Fake Dear Prudence Letters That Got Published. (Gawker)

• Just gonna put this article here for a few of us to see: Beating Burnout: Author Janice Litvin On The 5 Things You Should Do If You Are Experiencing Work Burnout. (Authority Magazine)

• And finally, WE DON’T DESERVE DOGS, THEY ARE SO GOOD. COVID-sniffing dogs now on duty at Miami International Airport (The Points Guy)

Oh, you wanted to see a photo of Orca, who arrives in my home on October 1st? Well of course, I shall oblige you since you asked so nicely (and yes, it is a screenshot of an Instagram Live video because sometimes technology is good.)

That’s it, that’s all! Be kind to yourself, get outside today if you can, and don’t forget to drink some water, mmmkay?

xoxo Amy
