Today my mom is having a Christmas luncheon party for a bunch of the people on my stepfather’s family and yuck they are such Republicans. Not hardcore Trumpers, you understand, and I suppose I should be grateful for that - but definitely Republicans.

All right, new beds were purchased and scheduled for delivery, and my mother didn’t make any of the sales people cry. Victory!

Damn I might need this. I really like the BASE 🖤

Okay I’m taking my Mamma to buy new beds. This is a big purchase and she’s going to want to PROCESS this a lot. Whatever she wants is fine. But it’s important that I provide the correct amount of feedback and not just sure-Mom my way through it! Cross your fingers for me

The Dunning-Kruger Effect and the Streisand Effect, when merged, become the Bari Weiss Effect

ICE agents illegally break into a woman's bathroom in a NY nutrition bar manufacturing plant. "Pull up your pants," says a male agent. The agents only had a warrant to review employer documents. They didn't have a warrant to search for, detain, or arrest anyone there.

Why did CBS delete this promo and cancel this from airing in full?

tonight the government killed a story on cbs about the slave labor camp in a foreign country theyre illegally sending people to

The actor Michael Sheen used all his money to start a fake debt collecting business, buy 900 people in Wales's debt, and excused it. If Musk bought ALL $194 billion in medical debt in the U.S. and excused it in the same way, he'd still be the world's riches man by hundreds of billions of dollars.

Rick Steves is the hero we need

This is the energy we need. 🙌💪👏✊️🔥🔥🔥👇

I think that literally every lawyer admitted to the bar in the state of Georgia has a billboard up along the 405 freeway, promising that they will get YOU yes YOU money for your accident! Like there are whole clumps of them side by side. it’s really comical.,

Landed safely in Atlanta, to spend a couple of weeks at my mom’s house with her 💛💛💛💛

“Public Health's advice is to leave the toilet lid down and trap the rat there. First, try to flush the rat away.” Flush. The rat? ! ! ! !

It's funny how many are indoctrinated to think politicians don't owe us shit. Yes they do! Their job is to give us what we want & need. It's bad enough that the politicians don't think they owe us anything, but the fact that they've brainwashed so many to agree with them so people won't even ask?

The economy wasn’t perfect. But it felt SO DIFFERENT. Like it didn’t feel like there were a bunch of evil billionaires watching everyone and plotting ways to strip away all their rights and all their money. Landlords were not all in cahoots to raise rents. Public healthcare was sometimes accessible?

Seated on a plane and the guy next to me has been talking loudly on his cell phone since he got on, all through takeoff, and he is apparently going to just talk non-stop for the next four hours. I thought this was against the rules? But apparently it’s not any more

The White House has been caught. The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims. In reality, it’s a publicly available fundraiser photo featuring Jackson and Ross’s own children.

For the past 15 years, I have warned "legal" sex workers about getting smug about the highly-arbitrary line of "legality" remaining in its then-current position. A fair number of strippers listened; very few Nevada legal prostitutes did.

Here's an example of how useless and frustrating internet laws to "protect kids" are in practice: When I'm in Ohio, where I am during the holidays, I can't use my Bluesky DMs—unless I hand over my ID to a company owned by Epic Games. Why? To protect kids, of course! spitfirenews.com/p/why-i-have...

Breaking: The Trump administration announces that they will not be complying with today’s deadline to release the full Epstein Files. They insist the files will be released in the next “couple weeks.”

Which is bullshit, but honestly we all expected this, didn’t we? This is a lawless administration, they were never going to comply

This is also the anti-sex worker rights movement play, it’s a classic

It’s really embarrassing how much certain Democrats are trying to assist the right in enacting Project 2025’s plans to censor the internet and banish abortion access info, sex ed, LGBTQ people, and much more under the guise of “protecting the kids,” who will of course be further harmed by this

Unpopular opinion, but the outpouring of rage onto this woman was just an expression of pure misogyny. Yes, even if you are a woman too

My X has been suspended so I’m going to put more effort in here. Help me find my friends! Please share.

Reminding everyone for no particular reason that Section 230 is one of the last things standing between free speech online and Trump having control over everything you see and say on the internet

History will record this administration‘s absolute OBSESSION with people’s genitals

Yes, the Comstock Act, a 19th-century anti-obscenity law that Alliance Defending Freedom has been trying to revive and weaponize as a nationwide abortion ban since fall 2022 after the fall of Roe v. Wade More: www.jezebel.com/the-wtf-is-h... www.jezebel.com/the-telling-...

I have a LOCKED account over there, like 500 people, under a pseudonym, so I can talk to other sex workers. It was permanently suspended yesterday, because I used the word “cis”. If they want people back there, they sure have a funny way of showing it

Ken Paxton has launched a snitch line to gather reports of supposed violations of Texas' transphobic bathroom policing law. Please do not abuse this snitch line. Please do not fill it with faff and nonsense. Please do not attach huge, unwieldy and irrelevant documentation to any reports.

I'm an expert in what I'm about to say: "You can buy your own health care" is, as a policy, fucking insane

Christopher Whipple from Vanity Fair is out here throwing SHADE and doing an amazing job at distracting everyone from the whole Olivia Nuzzi situation

It’s really not fair to Catherine Rampell that I always get her mixed up with Bari Weiss.

Yeah, that wasn’t a speech, that was a SCOLDING.

jesus christ what a desperate, ridiculous man

Whew. Roll out that 25th.

I’m seeing this too, it’s kinda wild

Basically Trump is trying to harangue America into believing that everything was horrible a year ago and perfect now, which Americans, capable of observing America, have already made clear they don't find convincing.

So he’s just out here filibustering his stump speech and telling us that prices are LOW and everything‘s GREAT “No one can believe what’s going on.” Well, you’re right about THAT, asshole.

The Vanity Fair photographer from the Susie Wiles story. Holy. Shit. www.washingtonpost.com/style/power/...

Hmmm I was watching a riveting video about a bad white couple in California fighting with some restaurant staff, and getting their ass handed to them, justifiably, and then bluesky crashed, and I can’t find it again

As we come to the eve of December 17, this day of remembrance, we hold space not only for grief but also for vision. December 17 is about honoring those we have lost, but it is also about insisting on the possibility of a world where sex workers live free from violence.

NUDITY will be OBSCENITY now! we are in Afghanistan in 1977 and most people don’t realize
