So because it’s Galentine’s Day, here is a small assortment of ladies out there that I’m thankful for:

Michelle Obama

She is my forever First Lady, and how cool is it that she showed up to the Grammys?

A big part of friendship is showing up for your girls—that’s why I was thrilled to be there for the one and only @aliciakeys at the #GRAMMYs. She is one of the most genuine and thoughtful people I know—there’s no one better to help us all celebrate the unifying power of music! pic.twitter.com/8cMhTmsClA

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

She’s rad, what can I say? She fights the good fight on everyone’s behalf

Don’t mess with our future.

When it comes to climate, it’s all our lives at stake. The younger you are, the more consequences you’ll see.

It’s life and death for us.
And we will fight like it. https://t.co/jlyFGkzCUW

Viola Davis

This isn’t just because I loved Widows, but you guys I loved Widows. Viola’s Twitter account is such a positive, fun account to follow, and every time she pops up I smile.

Special shout-out to my amazing glam squad! #Kimmel #HTGAWM

Roxane Gay

The below tweet speaks for itself why she is such a delight. And also she live-tweeted some of the Twilight saga movies, and I never felt more kinship to a famous person before.

LOLOL. On this episode of RHOBH a chyron for some random guy reads “charcuterie expert.” Reality TV is the greatest human endeavor. Don’t @ me.

Brie Larson
Can I be honest here? I don’t really care about Marvel movies (plot twist!) That all changes with Captain Marvel, largely in part because Brie seems like she talks the talk and walks the walk.

Look who I found!!! The super beauty inside and out @gemma_chan 👯‍♀️Thank you for showing me around Singapore 💖💪🥰 pic.twitter.com/OtZK0SlVfF

Ellen Page
Duh.

If lgbtq+ people are expressing their pain, their trauma, their experiences…maybe just try and listen? Open your heart, stop being defensive and have compassion. It’s a beautiful and life changing feeling, empathy.
Much love truly to all.

The Lady Overlords

Awww, no, I’m not just trying to gain brownie points in case I ever need to transport a heavy, rolled up carpet in the middle of the night. They’re a really rad group of women that I’m lucky to be associated with, so Happy Galentine’s Day, ladies! (Not the men. They know what they did.)
