When your bestie and you are watching a show on Netflix and you both sing "it's vehicular homicide" at the same time. God I'm gonna miss this woman when she's gone.

Let my love be heard. My grief is so deep. youtu.be/72-X0yPc3Hs?...

How do you make sure you've said all you need to say to someone before they go? How do you listen to and hear every possible word they have to say? There's never enough words. There's never enough time.

When people talk about Social Security with DOGE you've GOT to include disabled people in that conversation. Stop leaving us out.

When a choral piece of music perfectly sums up the love you have for the beautiful friend you're losing. music.apple.com/us/album/the...

She's dying, but she'll live forever in my memories, my heart, in the objects we shared with each other, and in the thoughtful gifts we exchanged. There'll be reminders all over. Her sage advice, our gentle hugs, listening to mutually enjoyed music, and the best of all, our "adult conversations".

How about we stop calling people picky and start saying that people just have different sensory needs, tastes, and sensitivities.

For the Republicans who consider themselves the party who protect women and are all against sex trafficking, where the hell is your outrage over Andrew and Tristan tate being allowed to leave Romania to come back to the US?!

MAGA, let's MAHA. Also MAGA, let's cut every social program, including Medicaid that poor and disabled people use to GO TO THE DOCTOR in order to STAY HEALTHY.

If you're looking for something to do in Denver on March 7th and 9th my choir is having a fantastic concert with a string quartet and it's a fabulous program.

The five year old inside me is having a mad craving for Oscar Mayer cheese dogs.

Mark my words, Trump will find a way to ban PRIDE.

Well this is shit. www.brennancenter.org/our-work/ana...

When the president couldn't even pass a citizenship test you know there's a problem.

Trump took over the Kennedy Center. That's just sad. Arts are dead.

Good to know that every Republican in office hates autistic people. Robert F. Kennedy jr is pro eugenics, and this will reverse all the positive progress we've made.

The entire reason my son grew up to be an auto technician is because of IDEA and the department of education. Fuck anyone who supports getting rid of it.

If you're not watching @adammockler.bsky.social yet get on it. You're going to get fact checked information you're missing from legacy media. I'm continually impressed with Gen Z.

Every time a republic opens their mouth: You lying liar lying from from your lying liar hole!

The republican legislative branch voluntarily gave away their power.

Charge DOGE with treason.

Deport Elon Musk.

Trump is full of shit.

Over on the other site Elon Musk said that DOGE stopped $50M of condoms from being delivered to Gaza which Trump the repeated several times but it turns out that was the number for all contraceptive support from USAID everywhere on Earth, of which none went to Palestinians.

Since Trump was inaugurated my life has gone to absolute shit. I was audited by Medicaid & SNAP under a new policy, had my gender made null and void, have my housing put at risk, and was kicked out of a hospital via a two security guard escort due to severe gender and disability discrimination.

Democrats pandered to boomers instead of listening to millennials and Gen Z. Now Gen Z are planning migration to the West Coast because they see WWlll coming, and still NONE OF YOU ARE LISTENING. Kristallnacht won't look the same this time around, but it will serve the same purpose.

Oprah owes us a massive apology.

Just wait till Trump gets rid of freedom of the press. Everything I've said would happen has happened so far. WWll and the Holocaust were my special interest in high school. The Republicans *and* the Democrats are and have been standing by and letting this happen.

Bold of you to assume this will only be four years.

This is your reminder that the Jan 6 treasoners believe they're martyrs for a cause and they've now been validated by their leader. If you think they were willing to commit acts of violence before, just think of what they're willing to do now knowing they can simply get a pardon.

You can pry my gender from my cold dead hands.

I hate my new diagnosis. I wanna live in the before, where I simply knew I had a shitty set of symptoms and not actually my body betraying me and I'm severely malnourished and it's another life altering serious diagnosis. Can I opt out of this one? I'll send my punch card back. Fuck gastroparesis!

Who's going to help the small businesses who make their money through TikTok? I thought the US was pro small business.

Some good news for the visually-oriented social media people amongst us!

NEW: Meta has quietly dismantled the system that prevented misinformation from spreading in the United States. Machine-learning classifiers that once identified viral hoaxes and limited their reach have now been switched off, Platformer has learned www.platformer.news/meta-ends-mi...

If TikTok goes dark the US government will have successfully banned the mode of free speech gen Z and younger millennials use.

Republicans, every state must become Republican, follow our policies, and suck our d*cks before you get aid. Democrats, where would you like us to sign the check for your citizens to get the care they need for expanding Medicaid, subsidies for farmers, hurricane relief, ect.

So Mel Gibson thinks the Dems started the fires on purpose. What kind of nutbag fuckery will they come up with next?! The fact we let these people have a platform or voice because "both sides" is bullshit. There's no both sides. There's utter nonsensical fabricated lies, and there's facts.

Galen Buckwalter, 68, shared with me his harrowing tale of being forced to flee the Eaton fire alone on his wheelchair through dark streets and fierce winds, dodging debris as fire neared his home. “In emergencies, disabled people are the last to get services…We have no system. You’re on your own”

Me, watching this movie right now: If I'm gonna have hot dirty cheating on my husband sex it's not going to be on a nasty scratchy pile of barn hay.

At this point if you're still buying a tesla you're Elon's little bitch.

If one more doctor tells me I need to lose weight and I must be eating garbage I will absolutely lose my shit on them. I can finally say I fucking eat less than 1k/day, and have the medical proof to back me up. I can't lifestyle change severe gastroparesis away.

I wish I had the kind of tenacity my cat uses every single night she attempts to trick me into thinking I haven't given her her bedtime snack (kitty treats) yet.

Yet again another diagnosis that took till my early 40s to get. I've had symptoms since early elementary. I can't believe it took till my BFF is dying from it and me learning about the symptoms for *me* to present to my doctor to go get tested to finally get a diagnosis.

I tried having a convo with a Trump supporter yesterday and I realized there wasn't any way I could talk to them because literally everything they said was completely unfactual, some even wild conspiracy theories. You can't reason with someone who can't tell the difference between facts and lies.
