The urge to confront my mother on if she regrets her vote yet gets stronger every day

I feel like I’m losing my mind with the lack of wall to wall coverage on disappearing *children with cancer* i keep saying this, but it’s not 5% of the uproar that came from Biden’s debate. “kids peeing in litter boxes”, a thing that never happened, got orders of magnitude more coverage.

This is horrifying and devastating news. Virginia was hounded and harassed by tabloids, a prominent Substack writer, and lawyers who sought to undermine her allegations. Others ignored her in their jokes and conspiracies about her abusers. www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn...

Who agrees? Art Candee shared this.

Happy Easter, EVERYONE!! 👇 Seemed. Appropriate. Today. 😎✨

@alexhirsh.bsky.social One of my kids at work (I work at an elementary school) is a HUGE fan of yours. Well...mostly a fan of Bill lol. Hope this brightens your day in these troublesome times

Tammy Duckworth’s Sentiments

Anyone upset by a lot of the black community "sitting this one out" is privileged. Truly. Obviously not everyone will be sitting out, but those who are are doing it because they're TIRED. Tired of carrying the weight. We (yt folks) need to step it up. Do whatever you can and GIVE THEM A BREAK

I never EVER imagined i'd turn out to be a lover girl. Like fr. The pipeline from being a tomboy hating pink kinda girl to wearing skirts and loving hello kitty is crazy. I told my boyfriend yesterday: "I don't wanna be showered in your affection. I want to be drowned in it" fiucking SIMP istg

Anyone who crochets: what's the best thing you've ever made? (needing inspiration)

In grim contrast to the red carpet, Soheila Golestani faces 74 lashes for her Oscar-nominated film, The Seed of the Sacred Fig. Watch this film to understand the repression of Iran’s theocratic regime &why the #WomenLifeFreedom movement is so important: www.thetimes.com/culture/film...

Well said!

Fadwa Tuqan passed away in 2003. She was a poet known for her representations of resistance to Israeli oppression and occupation in contemporary Arab poetry. Known as the Poet of Palestine, today is her birthday. She was born March 1, 1917. (Women’s History Month)

So, wait. For basically ever, men were earning way more than their female counterparts, and the messaging was that women were "too emotional" or whatever. And the second women start earning more than men, men completely lose their shit and it's a "crisis" "gripping" them? What a bunch of losers.

Don’t buy today. Give the greedheads a taste of their own medicine.

Just going to leave this here should it become useful to anyone…

I DON'T NEED TO SEE THE TOE SUCKING VIDEO ANY MORE THANK YOU

This is the way.

So irrationally irritated by everything today. Being treated like a dumb child by someone who IS GENUINELY DUMB is really really annoying.

The world’s strongest voice for Democracy

I love when I'm treated like I don't know anything, simply because I'm a woman, even though IM the one who does the research on the thing so I'm not going into it completely blind. Love when I feel like I have to repeat myself over and over because I'm getting NO response from the person "helping".

Elon’s mass harassment email to all federal employees underscores the importance of having unions to represent workers against abusive management.

Also if you feel strongly about Eric Adams, you should call your city councilmember to express that and ask for their position. You’d be surprised. Hochul’s stance is highly disappointing but it doesn’t come from nowhere. Press all your electeds. City elections are in 5 months. Ask candidates too.

another great example along with Wired and Teen Vogue of how real journalism these days can be a lot braver at outlets where no one is trying to get in good with the White House press secretary they’re out here with us, reporting on what’s happening to us all, instead of trying to get inside access

the fact that my trump supporting mother is the main reason I am unable to have reliable transportation to get to go to any marches or protests pisses me off. (I have a car, she does not. If I don't let her borrow my car she'd be jobless and because I live with her atm that wouldn't be good for me)

Trump supporter coworkers: Did you guys see that eggs are $7!?!? Me, heating up my food and facing away from them:

taking black kids away from their parents and putting them on farms seems really familiar to me! what could it be?

Dismantling the death penalty is a responsibility that belongs to all of us. Inspiring to see how a group of nuns are trying to save women on death row in Texas: www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...

Encyclopædia Britannica will continue to use ‘Gulf of Mexico’ for a few reasons: -We serve an international audience, a majority of which is outside the U.S. -The Gulf of Mexico is an international body of water, and the U.S.’s authority to rename it is ambiguous. 🧵⬇️

Saw someone say, "End your friendships with people who are going about life like nothing is wrong." I will never understand people who think that further isolating ourselves from everyday people who don't get it is going to save us. It's not. Your judgment and disdain will not save us.

Drinking Chinese medicinal tea I learned from Xiaohongshu because I'm sick and endemic af and it's the best thing ever. I love people

Disgusting

Therapy isn't free, but a peaking into the void is. You don't like a post? Report it if it's harmful. Ignore it if it's not. Block them if you never wanna see it again. Simple.

Why do we hold saying "please" and "thank you" as the standard for being polite and not actually teaching people how to CARE for one another

I didn't watch but it is my understanding that Drake lost the Super Bowl

Anyway like I've said over and over again, there's so much to be done and that can be done. We're only three weeks in.
