I'm a very big marshmallow of a human who was born in a time when I had to adapt to mounting cruelties or be swept away by them. I mourn for the soft and fuzzy I could have been sometimes, but that's not how it went, so Bitch Face it is.

it's my 33rd birthday today and all I can think about is how much humanity has lost itself... I don't know how anyone has survived entire lifetimes... is that an achievement or normalized suffering

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

Murphy: "Let's not pull any punches about why this is happening. Elon Musk makes billions off of his business with China. And China is cheering at this action today. There is no question that the billionaire class trying to take over our govt right now is doing it based on self-interest."

Trump and Musk are tanking the American economy -- so they can create chaos, and seize more control. THEY will be the only winners. WE will be the ones paying more, suffering more, and losing our money, our jobs, and our freedoms.

When there's no more immigrants they'll go after other religions. When there's no other religion they'll go after women. When there's no more women they'll go after each other. Their hate is within themselves. Men refuse to see it. They'll eat each other before this is all over.

But keep blaming immigrants and the most vulnerable. Anyone who is ok with this but acts like they care about our debt/deficits is gaslighting you. truthout.org/articles/tes...

A gay guy, a Black man, and a woman walk into a flight deck— that’s not the beginning of a joke, but just a regular day at work! There was so much DEI on this plane that we could hardly get in the air. Luckily my limp wrists were able to wrestle the heavy jet back to the ground 💅🏼
