On this day in 1929, George Stinney Jr., was born. He was the youngest person executed in the US in the 20th century. He was so small they had to stack books on the electric chair. Due to no evidence, his conviction was vacated 70 years after his execution!   A THREAD!

Yesterday was #WorldMentalHealthDay and I’ve been thinking about the last two years which have been really tough on my mental health. I tried therapy, running, meditating, swimming, resting, drinking more + drinking less and in the end I also needed SSRIs. Getting help is good❤️
