Francesca Albanese is a hero. Plain and simple.

The Supreme Court case tomorrow is fundamentally not about gender affirming care, it's about whether or not trans people have any protections under the 14th amendment. A loss in this case would greenlight a torrent of explicitly discriminatory legislation without much, if any judicial recourse.

Breaking | Israeli occupation drones drop grenades on Kamal Adwan Hospital in northern Gaza Strip.

YES!!! Word choice matters. This is a genocide. It is ethnic cleansing. It is apartheid. Israel is a colonizer. Hamas is a resistance organization. It is legal to resist occupation. #FreePalestine 🍉

This is a great primer on how to write Alt text.

This @washingtonpost.com article is interesting. But, WTF?!?! In 7 months I’ll be considered an “Older Woman”. Nah….😂😂😂 wapo.st/4iiTKQ6

i doom post so you can doomscroll.

The Hunter Biden story is a perfect encapsulation of what’s wrong with American media: Is it a story? Sure. But every newspaper in America devoting front page headlines to Hunter fucking Biden while Trump appoints a cabal of rapists, racists and con-men to positions of enormous power is MADNESS.

It’s pretty amazing the levels of indoctrination that have been digested - people actually believe The US is powerless to stop Netenyahu ‘s killing spree. This is not a catastrophic natural disaster - This is a policy choice . Biden can end it now - one phone call Dont drink the koolaid

I was searching for podcast episodes that cover the potential changes to Dutch higher ed. But, I ran across this total gem! These two have such good chemistry and clearly like working together. Super funny! #Podcasts #DutchCulture open.spotify.com/episode/5iHK...

Do you like 1) a color-coordinated tree or 2) one with all different ornaments? My daughter is in camp #1 and currently controls the tree decorating. I’m firmly in camp #2 and prefer to hang a hodgepodge of ornaments that I’ve collected over the years. I love the memories they evoke. How about you?

My daughter lives in Middelburg, Zeeland in the Netherlands. She gets to witness gorgeous sunrises on a regular basis. I am envious. ❤️

Winter is here. The cats are too cold to stay out on the patio and I actually have to use the hot water since the “cold” water is no longer sufficiently warmed by the sun. I’ve also broken out my long-sleeved shirts. 😂 #Qatar #ColdWeatherWhimps

I have one kid in uni in the NL and another to follow next year. The talk about cuts to the budget are concerning. This article makes it seem like there isn’t enough support to make it happen. But, I have a very limited understanding of the Dutch government, so 🤷‍♀️ nltimes.nl/2024/11/27/c...

Well played. And frighteningly accurate.

I’m not really into holidays. They’re ok. But I absolutely love the end-of-year, best-of book lists. #BookSky

Judgmental opinion: you should be following @aljazeera.com

“Raccoons are trying to break into #CyberTrucks , and there's some speculation that this is happening because the raccoons are literally confusing them with dumpsters.” 😂🤣😂🤣

If it still seems absolutely insane to you that trump, an adjudicated rapist and convicted felon who tried to overturn the result of the previous election, is going back to the White House, that's a good sign. It means your brain is still working, and you haven't normalized it. IT IS NOT NORMAL.
