Knives out: the upper middle class are squabbling vicious children who do not deserve their inheritance Glass onion: the new elite are the stupidest murderous cunts alive and deserve your scorn Wake up dead man: those preaching anger as salvation are leading you to death, hope and kindness matter

Grew up in rural Florida in the 80s/90s. We had lots of HS parties that involved alcohol weed etc. You know what we didn’t do? As a rule no one would get behind a wheel if they were partaking. Sober kids gave rides but mostly ppl crashed where they were. Even the outdoors. 🤷‍♀️

Not for nothing, but men using tampons as a joke to dismiss a program as "not serious" is a really classic misogynist trope. We can all see what's happening here.

Some Dems have told themselves only ~1% of the population is trans so they can dip their toe in the anti-trans filth and come out clean. I don't have any trans family members—but it still makes me irate. I see it as a huge red flag, a sign you are unprincipled and untrustworthy. And I'm not alone.

the good that you do persists in this world

O, horrible, O, horrible, most horrible!

Twenty million Americans have a completely new chronic illness from a pandemic our government said was over in mid 2022, before the two highest waves even happened. And now they are ending the subsidies that allowed millions to afford healthcare. The rage I feel could birth a new galaxy.

This is great. I think the whole idea of accommodation should rightly be an invitation to reject an ableist, eugenicist approach to the world and instead ask "What if we want to give *everyone* the chance to do their best?"

An article that wasn't focused on elite colleges might be capable of considering that disability accommodations are about a student getting a good education for themselves rather than framing things in terms of a hunger games competition for who gets to be elite in society

This is me but with Biscoff cookie crust. Nom nom

Saw the trailer for Maggie Gyllenhal’s The Bride, starring the incredibly talented Jessie Buckley, and wow am I going to get insufferable for my IRL people next year. Sorry not Sorry

My friend just fuckin showed up with a corncob pipe & that’s when it hit me that we are all in our 40s which means we get one new accessory slot

Love when people in charge of public education and overseeing aspects of child welfare show such open contempt for certain children’s well-being. The folks obsessed over children falling behind with covid school closures sure are quiet when it comes to kids actively being terrorized by the state.

Just msgd a friend about how I attended the warped tour in South FL multiple years including 1997 and now I wish I knew where all the photos I took might be. Wild world ☠️😬 Band dorks + skanking 🥰

It’s how we pay our rent. Landlord too cheap to have an online system & the new mgmt hired by them this year tried to tell us to pay via Zelle. Lol no way. That paper check is my proof I paid my rent. Plus government payments like passport renewals etc 🤷‍♀️ but no I don’t carry the book around

The president of the united states is a pedophile rapist who was best buddies with Jeffrey Epstein and spent hours with an underage victim at Epstein's home. Now he's currently huddled in the situation room directing a cover up about it like it's a seal team 6 operation. Do I have that right?

I mean, I'm gonna admit... sometimes I don't make a joke that requires media literacy to understand if I think folks are gonna take it as a threat because we are in a context free hell zone, but also lol sigh

WITH A KNOWN VICTIM. It is so much worse than what we already know-- not that we need any more evidence. It is time for the WH press corps to start asking about this TO HIS FACE, to Leavitt's face, to Bondi's face. ASK THEM: are the videos/photos of Trump assaulting children in the files?

Listen, folks, I hate to keep reminding everyone of this, but among the materials seized from Epstein's residences were 11,000+ videos and photographs classified as CSAM (child s*xual abuse material). He had video cams in every room. Now we have an email saying Trump spent "hours" at his home

Today I lift up survivors of sexual violence. I am centering your pain, your need to see justice, your healing. I am so sorry for what happened and I am so sorry this country and world protect wealthy men who rape and abuse children and women. May they start to fear the truth.

my brain can't process how horrifying all these powerful people are because if I let it sink in I will probably scream for the rest of the week, so it keeps tripping over the fact that they're all borderline illiterate weirdos talking about doing crimes on gmail

This is so heartbreaking. I’m in my own hell with LC but my issues don’t hold a candle to what is happening to Jessica. You Do Not Want This It isn’t worth the risk. Read her whole thread and imagine yourself in her shoes. Its terrifying. PLEASE for the love of all that’s good: Mask. Up.

Oh ffs

and yours shouldn't either. That doesn't mean we shouldn't pressure them - DO IT - but we don't have to rely on these losers.

This is my favorite part of this cycle we've been repeating for my entire adult life: when they sit backwards on the chair for some real talk and explain that you're a fucking peasant who doesn't understand how things work.

Update: I'm still mad about it

It really does seem like there's a decent chance that these senators screwed us because they don't want their personal Thanksgiving plans to be disrupted.

These same bums will be asking us for cash at the next deadline; looking forward to sending this back to every Senate fundraising text

Shutting down the government is a big deal. People have been hurt in big ways as a result of the decision. To have that suffering be for nothing—to re-open the government without actually having protected people’s health insurance and economic well-being—is unconscionable.

For any moots suffering from LC like me, know that this is a remote study. So don’t worry about being local to the hospital.

Y'all, the hospital where I had my surgery is running trials to see if GLP-1 medications can help people suffering from long COVID. It's open to any person with documented long COVID who lives in the US. Please pass it on!

KBJ threaded the needle thanks to CA1’s unfinished business. -if she denied the admin stay, the full SCOTUS woulda stepped in to override her. -if she immediately referred the case to the full Court, they coulda dragged feet. -instead she boxed them in to act quickly once she does refer the case.

I actually do understand the legal reasoning behind Justice Jackson's stay order. My point is that when people have no food, unless they can eat your legal reasoning, it's irrelevant. Feed. Them.

Ya know what I’m not interested in legalese The admin and the courts are all operating on a scale of: Acceptable —> GREAT! When it comes to starving children THIS SHOULDNT BE HAPPENING I’m incandescent. Like I can’t think between the fever I’m fighting and my anger.

Diapers, especially larger sizes, are EXTREMELY in demand at all times and move in a flash. Donations of larger diapers are *gold*.

Missing my dad this 5th of Nov. He took me to my first bonfire night on a cold evening in Scotland when I was 12. It was brilliant and I’ve never forgotten it. I still have my wee Guy Fawkes figurine 🥰

Accountability update: In the last month 1. Fell hurt my leg + clapped my jaw so hard, it broke a molar 2. RC on that molar about 10 days ago 3. Fri night my right eye went haywire and I found out yesterday it was due to TWO tears and a bleed in my retina This isn’t my kind of chaos fwiw 🫩

I’m so damn proud of my adopted home state. Turnout was spectacular and for a bit my hope will swell. Thanks California 🥹 Which is good because my corporeal being is honestly teetering on the brink right now LolSob

Oh my nerd brain loves this! Got today’s in 9 guesses. Tangentially: When I was deep in grad school doing phylogenic sorting of ancient hominids based on a few skulls & some text characteristics was one of the most illuminating experiences I had in that program. This is way more fun!

Happy Halloween

Enough engaging with people who will never be whole decent people and more cutting and piecing fabric for my own quilt design. Making a test quilt because I can’t write the pattern out w/o making one first. It’s how my brain flows. #quilting #quiltsky

Note to self don’t engage before caffeinating. Because I wasted minutes of my precious life engaging with what turned out to be a TERF because I didn’t read fully. Don’t be like me kids 🤦‍♀️

I’ve lived in CA for 25+ years. Idk how people are falling for Newsom’s bullshit but y’all need to wake up. That man is bad news. I will not vote for him. He’s repugnant and cruel. So we best do better if we get the opportunity. Good thing any prez election is 3 years away.

🎃🎃🎃

Not here for the bigots going after @parkermolloy.com and some others in my feed. No one willing to throw trans people/hungry kids/BIPOC/disabled folks/women’s bodily autonomy - to the wolves - should be in the coalition. Your whiteness? being cis? It won’t save you in the end my guys and gals.
