Oopsie - your hypocrisy is showing

5 common issues autistic people have that most people don't realize have a scientific correlation to autism... 1. Sleep apnea 2. Allergies 3. Teeth grinding 4. Stomach issues 5. Temp regulation issues

Don't ever let these things happen in secret. Raise your voices as much as you can.

I love the internet

To all those who said boycotting Target was a waste of time. It wasn't. Keep it up, y'all!

Chutzpah is lying to dodge the draft and then asking the Army to celebrate your damn birthday.

I keep catching strays from "technology is neutral" people, so let's set things straight. 1) Technology is not neutral, especially the subset of technology called "algorithms" 2) The form-factor that makes a technology into a tool is not neutral 3) How tools are productized is not neutral [rant]

People are NOT understanding what empty cargo ships from China means. It means no work for dock workers. No work for truck drivers, no work for retailers, fewer dollars circulating. The cascade effect is just mind boggling.

Politics is more clear when you remember that the "waste" in "government waste" is the profit that some rich asshole isn't making off labor in the public sector whose only purpose is the common good.

Ugh time to boycott 60 minutes. No viewers is the goal.

Your periodic reminder that one way to think about privilege is: who's allowed to make mistakes?

🚨Attention Members of the DC Bar🚨 Ballots went out today for key positions in the DC bar. Please vote for: Diane Seltzer for President Amanda Molina for Treasurer Note: Seltzer is running against Pam Bondi's brother. Get your ballot and vote ASAP.

Who else AGREES with Nina?! 🤚

A helpful guide to the current state of US trade policy:

No! Stop this, major media! That’s _not_ what just happened! DOJ at _no_ point made _any_ commitment to “bring Garcia home,” nor did it ask for “more time” to “bring Garcia home.” It said that Garcia is in the custody of El Salvador and the court has no jurisdiction there. Get it right, dammit!

If you are not registered to vote, you might want to do it right the fuck now. Because who controls access to passport?

Dr Peter Marks, "Vaccines have been studied very extensively for being potentially associated with autism" "That theory has been debunked" "One study in Denmark, over 600,000 children. It shows that if anything, children had a lower rate of autism than unvaccinated children"

Called my congressman who voted for the SAVE act. Me: What documents will I need to vote if this passes? Staffer: a DL and birth certificate. Me: The documents don’t match Staffer: Then a marriage certificate. Me: Will my husband need the marriage certificate too? Staffer: No Me: See the problem?

What's the difference between the facts of a situation and your interpretation? When your partner checks their phone mid-conversation, the FACT is they looked away for 30 seconds. Your STORY might be "I don't matter." Learn to separate these for healing. #relationships #hurtfeelings #drdarhawks

This!!!! Women are the economy.

The SAVE Act is a MAGA power grab that creates barriers to voting. It targets Black and brown voters, working families, young people, disabled voters, and new citizens. Congress must reject it and protect our freedom to vote. bit.ly/425uQ0v

Are you a woman who changed your name when you got married? Congress is considering a bill that could make it much harder for you to vote. Call your rep—this is not a drill. indivisible.org/resource/cal...

Feeling hurt by your partner but don't know how to express it? Stop bottling up or exploding! Learn to identify the facts vs. your story, and make clear requests that actually get results. Your hurt feelings are trying to tell you something important. #BetterRelationships #relationshipcoaching

Reckless cruelty isn’t strength. Capitulation isn’t courage. Cultish allegiance isn’t patriotism. We used to know the difference.

Trump can't stop grifting and lying to his supporters.

Can we stop calling these atrocities "deportations." These people sold to El Salvadorian prisons were not deported. Deportation is a process that did not take place. They were rounded up and removed with no process. They were kidnapped, not deported.

"Age verification" laws are actually "upload your ID or get your face scanned to access every website, ending anonymity and associating your identity with everything you do online" laws and if more people understood that they would not be down for this authoritarian nonsense

The many triumphed over the money in Wisconsin's Supreme Court election yesterday. Congratulations to Judge Susan Crawford, to the people of Wisconsin, and to everyone fighting for a just and free America. Let's keep going.

Wisconsin! Judge Susan Crawford will work to protect your rights and freedoms. So get out there and vote today by 8pm. You can find your polling place at wisdems.org/vote. If you have any questions about voting, call or text the Voter Assistance Hotline at 608-336-3232.

Hi, BlueSky. It's Hillary. I've joined up here to help get the word out about an important election in Wisconsin tomorrow, and other ways to defend our democracy against those who think votes can be bought.

Please pass this on far and wide.

You have to see this. PoliticsGirl and her husband teamed up with the brilliant Timothy Snyder (author of On Tyranny) and the legendary John Lithgow to create something truly powerful. It’s important, it’s urgent—and it needs to be shared far and wide.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but it doesn't matter if the person you're being abusive to is a stranger you just met. It's not like you have to have some personal connection beforehand in order for it to count as abuse. Your intent to harm them is all that's required.

Do you feel your partner is not hearing you? What if the root cause of so many misunderstandings in your relationship could be addressed by simply knowing your Dominant Primary Relationship Need? And all you have to do is take the Primary Relationship Needs Quiz. vist.ly/3mye3xz

Not getting much attention, but the Senate GOP is about to start voting - to make sure banks can charge higher overdraft fees. Seriously. Good time to let your Senators know what you think of that.
