Being a person with deadly, incurable cancer who is nonetheless still alive for an indefinite timeframe gives me an interesting metaphor that helps me deal with things like large-scale corruption in government or commerce. Bear with me for a second while I try to explain.

SHARE WIDELY. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS. With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights. You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one. (1/3)

By describing a fetus as a person from conception, Trump has legitimized fetal personhood. The legal language employed by fetal personhood also effectively categorizes any person receiving an abortion at any stage as a murderer.

👏👏👏 It’s refreshing to see this courage after silence and capitulation from the majority of our Dem electeds. If you can’t use your platform, however briefly you may have it, to stand up to fascism and speak truth to power, you don’t deserve it.

I’m so serious about this. Do not increase your time on meta platforms. In fact, over the next 48 hours, give your attention to somewhere else. Don’t reward Zuckerberg for this. 1/

Michigan folks: our Democratic senators, Gary Peters and Elissa Slotkin, intend to vote with Republicans for the “Laken Riley Act”—legislation that would do absolutely nothing to address the immigration crisis but would eliminate the right to due process for undocumented people. /1

I know it's a lot to ask of Dem House members but can we promote the young member who talks good and people like? As cool as it is to always replace people with people just like the people they replaced so nothing ever changes, I'd like to win elections and get stuff done at some point.

It is really quite something to hear Justice Alito talk about leaving decisions to people and their doctors and how bereft of expertise the court is.

I don’t give a shit about Hunter or precedent (honestly, consider the times in which we live and this is laughable) but there are far more deserving people who should be pardoned but sadly won’t

Some people still believe precedent will mean something in the smash and grab circus era of politics we’re about to enter. That’s just fucking adorable.

Since when are deviled eggs a Thanksgiving food? My husband has apparently fallen down the deviled egg tok worm hole and as a result just finished making a batch at midnight. I guess being radicalized on eggs isn’t as bad as other things but what the hell

This is why I'm on a personal mission to abolish the focus group. PO research is useful but it's one leg of a table, and if you let your messaging be guided by what makes the most people in a focus group smile you'll quickly find yourself saying and believing in nothing at all.

Were whites only fountains "distractions?" Or were they explicitly a way to say that Black people had no right to free movement and were inherently second class? Come on. If some Black people said it was a distraction, that's an opinion. But STRUCTURALLY it was NOT a distraction.
