My husband just expressed that me buying a car without him was completely emasculating and I’m now trying to dissect that… Is that emasculating? I feel pretty capable of doing that on my own?

"Sugar, Spice, & Equal Fucking Rights"

Absolute chaos.

They're going after the accreditation of universities and threatening to revoke the ability of accreditors if they don't crack down on DEI and LGBTQ people in academia. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

This has to be the most brazenly corrupt act in the history of the American presidency. Trump is holding a contest to see who can pay him the most money and the prize is direct access to the president It is literal pay-to-play

What could go wrong? 🙄

sure what the hell. Announce thirteen billion percent tariffs next. 73 quintillion percent. eleventy gabillion percent. 29 brazillian percent. 35 dodecagorillion percent. who cares.

When 2 careers are often needed to make ends meet, and pregnancy carries its own risks, it isn't irrational for women to limit the number of children they have. Maybe focus on family friendly policies--paid leave, incentives for better maternal health outcomes.... Just spitballing here.

That oughta do it.

this is going to kill people.

a lesson for every college, law firm, business, etc. — if these chodes demand you do something, your first response should be some form of "make me"

Nothing to see here, just an inept & willfully ignorant government fundamentally misunderstanding Title IX until they are blue in the face.

UPDATE: It happened. In an 11:15 meeting, employees were told that the office has been eliminated and their positions will be terminated.

The quality of food in the USA in 2025 is so depressing… I am literally eating around an unknown cube of black material in my side dish potatoes. Is it mold? Is it dead cubed rat? I don’t know.

this man should read cards

Pretty sure the majority of the middle class is making w-4 adjustments for the first time in their lives this week.

I just want to tip my hat to the crack team of White House economists who were able to discover--in just a few short days--that the U.S. is dependent on China for smartphones, computers and semiconductors.

Mortgage rates surge over 7% as tariffs hit bond market www.cnbc.com/2025/04/11/m...

I married this person. Meanwhile, if my phone is over 38% at any given moment, I’m delighted.

Thoughts on how higher education can and should oppose Trump. daniels-newsletter-42563f.beehiiv.com/p/higher-edu...

"this chick who's new for me, i don't her before, but i like her." 😂

He literally tweeted: This is a great time to BUY! Just hours ago. And then he paused tariffs. He’s literally committing crimes in front of the entire world. 😳

These EOs are getting wild.

anyone else exhausted from all the constant trauma

The failure isn’t the insane President. The failure is all the supposedly sane people pretending he’s not.

Yeah, the feds are going to be the iphone screwers. 🤣

These tariffs are going to change your life in fundamental ways.

men will literally impose tariffs on islands entirely inhabited by penguins instead of going to therapy

Elder millennials watching traders freak out about a global economic collapse that will wreck tens of millions of lives and livelihoods, possibly irreparably

An underrated factor in how we got ourselves into this mess is that Americans are increasingly relying on computers and the internet instead of their own critical thinking faculties (AI is making this even worse), and as a result are uninformed and easy to manipulate.

Was the youngest adult at a family gathering today & the questions hit hard: “Are you guys buying a new house?” “Your mother was saying you need a new car, what are you getting?” Meanwhile I am over here debating if I should stock up on face wash and toothpaste right now.

13 is apparently too cool for the Minecraft movie I want to see. So I reminded him of the time he started screaming & inconsolably crying when he accidentally blew up his entire Minecraft world bc he inexplicably thought keeping dynamite around his houses would keep the them safe. Moms remember.

I am from the future guys.

Enjoying the Nextdoor notifications today w/ all my elderly & aggrieved neighbors with homes decorated in maga gear blaming grocery prices on tariffs implemented a day earlier.

Congratulations, boss, you've done it: You're bigger than covid.

Ok, the hype is real. The Cherry Chai at Starbucks is amazeballs.

Yikes

“Do you think this will lead to job losses in Rochester Hills?” …AND DETROIT …AND DEARBORN… AND WARREN… AND KALAMAZOO… THIS IS A WHOLE MI STATE DISASTER!

More than 21 million Americans lack ready access to a birth certificate or passport, which could be required to register to vote if Congress passes the SAVE Act. Many more, such as women who changed their name when they got married, don’t have one of these documents with their current name on it.

For the record, the original Beetlejuice is way less terrifying when you are not 7.

The U.S. beekeeping industry is in crisis over the shocking and unexplained deaths of hundreds of millions of bees over the last eight months. https://cbsn.ws/429PUSq

Best protest sign of 2025: NOPE Efficient, effective, & environmentally responsible since we will apparently be doing this shit for the next 4 years.
