Hi all, We’re still here at OPM. We have a situation where we MIGHT, and I do mean, MIGHT have four of Elon’s people blocked from the building. Can we get press or a member of Congress down here? We’ve blocked them for two hours and they keep coming back and trying to go in.

Anti-abortion politicians will stop at nothing to deny people essential health care, including threatening to lock up doctors and those who help people get abortions. No one should face prosecution for helping someone end their pregnancy.

I’m at that age where my body is still strong enough to do a thing, but if I choose to do the thing, I may need days of physical recovery. For example, sleeping wrong, sneezing, walking up the stairs with all the groceries in one trip (this last one especially). #middleaged #onetrip #myback #owowow

Faeries in folklore are known for their trickery. If they could talk openly, would they explain their mischief or ask why humans keep leaving out milk instead of something stronger? #WyrdWednesday Art: Robertas Kasperovicius

My least favorite people are the progressives who jump to say “it won’t matter” every time someone makes a suggestion. “They won’t care.” Maybe that’s considered a good contribution to progress where you’re from but I actually think you’re more damaging than anything else.
