One very strange aspect of middle class liberals developing self-awareness around privilege is that a lot of folks are OVER-estimating the protective powers of that privilege in conversations. There is a real imagination there that they are insulated right now. They aren't.

it’s a great time to remind everyone to keep your cats indoors. i don’t want to hear that shit about how your cat is desperate to go outside or is used to being out there. i had an outdoor cat i had to bring inside after 13yrs. i know how they are. she lived to 20. they’ll get over it & so will you.

The right wing woman is not insincere in her politics, but she is tactical: she believes that sexual and reproductive service to right wing men will earn her their protection, affection, and material support. She is wrong.

UPDATE: Nearly 100 migrants, recently deported by the United States to Panama where they had been locked in a hotel, were loaded onto buses Tuesday night and moved to a detention camp on the outskirts of the jungle, several of the migrants said. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/19/w...

I think most people are intuitively aware of this but something like the official White House account posting an “ASMR” video of shackled immigrants is not just cruel for its own sake, it’s intentional envelope-pushing to ramp up to desensitization over inhumane detention, camps, and deaths

This is my “daughter of a Black Panther breakfast program volunteer” coming out but anyone who tells you that you have to be public about all your resistance activity should immediately be under suspicion for being an op, or being under the influence of an op

Hey when dealing with Nazi disinformation, remember that repeating it only cements it in people’s heads, even if you actively debunk it. RFK: antivax brainworm word salad! You: RFK is pro mass death. Don’t repeat any of their messaging even to prove it wrong.

My takeaway here on what this means for abortion care? Innovative little start ups were never the answer. Our movement is not in a place to innovate with compassion to both workers and patients without being beholden to the absurd whims of random donors. It’s all a savior complex.
