I finally made the meme I've had in my head for over a year

CHAPPELL ROAN "The Giver" (Apple Music Promo)

I had this caption all ready to go, but then I remembered something.  The model in the photo was an Instagram model who recently took her own life.  One thing I don’t really emphasize enough is that unrealistic goals are just that: unrealistic. A positive mindset is important, and if you don’t shoot for the impossible, you’ll never find out if it really is impossible.  But never feel bad if you fall short.  You can always try again, or try a different approach.  Trying and failing is as much a part of the human condition as breathing and the desire to be comfortable with yourself.  Your chances are never zero, no matter how things look or feel.

But in the event that you are feeling that suicide is the answer, please don’t.  Call one of these crisis hotlines, depending on your country.  We all want you safe and happy, and these people are trained to help you out of the place you find yourself in.

People love you.  People would miss you.  Stay safe, girls.

WASHINGTON — An Internal Revenue Service employee who is affiliated with the Department of Government Efficiency has accessed an IRS system that houses sensitive taxpayer information, according to an administration official.

The employee was granted access to the Integrated Data Retrieval System, which allows IRS employees to access taxpayer accounts.

The IDRS allows employees to have “instantaneous visual access to certain taxpayer accounts,” according to the IRS website. The system can be used for “researching account information and requesting returns” and “automatically generating notices, collection documents and other outputs.”

IDRS users “are authorized to access only those accounts required to accomplish their official duties,” according to the IRS website.

The person with access to the IDRS is an IRS employee who started during the second Trump administration and is affiliated with DOGE, the official confirmed. The official said that the employee was carrying out the "DOGE mission" and acting “legally and with the appropriate security clearances.”
