The case of Adriana Smith seemed like a test to see if women could be just as useful to the far right while dead. I imagine they're now wondering if they can puppet a dead body into cooking and cleaning.

So when Christians said they were oppressed, what they actually meant was... they didn't have full authoritarian power to propel all of humanity into the fabled end times?

IMHO, we're in this mess because democrats treated an insurrectionist traitor like a valid political party.

Watching Charlie Kirk talk about women, he sounds like a wannabe slave owner arguing that being a slave is a God-given natural state. Isn't the whole point here that when women have a choice, they don't all want the same thing? He just wants women to have no choice. youtu.be/jmkx5dRoqTk?...

we weren't meant to live this fast. that's why our bodies push back, with anxiety, stress, exhaustion & illness. we were made for slowness, connection, care, nature, laughter & deep presence. that's where we belong & that's where we can return

Imagine a fictional machine that let's you take joy from your future self when you want to feel better now. Eventually it would stop working because you would reach the future you stole from. Like withdrawal from a drug, you'd reach a day of pure agony. What if the machine would let you...🧵

While the army was marching out of step for Trump's pathetic parade, they played Fortunate Son on the loud speakers... an anti-war song about rich people avoiding war.

When my chronic illness is flaring up and all I can do is lie here waiting for my body to resurrect itself, I think about stuff like this... Husky + Rat = Possom Right?

I once went on a short trip and left my car parked in a legal spot near my dorm. While I was gone, city officials created a temporary no parking zone around my car (and my car only) then proceeded to tow it away. This is basically what the Trump regime is doing to some legal, documented immigrants.

This is what fear and weakness looks like. The reporter, on the other hand, showed strength and wisdom.

Something MAGA anti-protesters can't cope with... substack.com/@resistmaga/...

I'm in Brevard and I voted for the other guy. They made him a write-in candidate. Brevard is not all red. I don't think he would be sheriff if it weren't for corruption.

Jewish space lasers, do your worst! Rain on his parade!

I know of at least one person who decided not to protest here in Florida (Brevard no less) because she's afraid she'll be seriously injured or killed. She's 21 and under 5 feet tall. Afraid to PEACEFULLY PROTEST! The governor, sheriff, etc... they know what they're doing. 😡

_Brain on Fire_ (2016): Dramatised true story of a woman who suffered, along with her family and friends, when her brain stopped working. End credits have pictures of the people in the movie and describe her efforts to help others with the same disease. Passes the Bechdel Test. I liked this movie.

I'm in Brevard where the sheriff threatened to kill Americans who throw rocks. This is what scared people sound like. Truly, deeply scared... not of anyone in particular but of life itself, of anything they can't personally control. Pity them. Their inner life is probably hell.

I keep seeing videos of MAGA nitwits talking about liberals "meeting Jesus." Their Jesus said "whatsoever you do to the least of these, you do to me." Dudes, you're meeting Jesus every day, and you're wishing him dead!

My oldest son, Erik, graduated from CalTech today! That is all. #proudmommy

My husband seriously injured his leg this week then bashed it again and developed a huge external hematoma. It looks like a fake alien eye made for a cheesy horror movie. He calls it The Eye of Shin.
