How old were you when you learned that just expressing an emotion could be "too much" for the people around you? Because it's that version of you, that "part," who you still carry around w/ you in your head & heart, that needs your presence & acceptance right now.

The use of the word “eliminate” in this context should really freak out more than just those of us he’s seeking to remove, to be honest. This should be a red flag so big that it’s visible from space.

After 27 years, SpongeBob’s iconic real estate agent has officially been revealed to be named Janet.

Some of you are a little too worried about a RED card in soccer and not worried enough about the ORANGE man in the White House!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i'm in the third act of a 21 hour long binge (over several days) of a review of the Lightlark series and i'm yelling at the tv like yall watching soccer

People with visible abs talking about not having their summer/beach body makes me want to kill someone.

If I see one more faggot with abs mention pizza and literally anything about their body in a caption I’m going to implode and go homophobic

Very thankful for this letter to Becky Pepper-Jackson (the 16 year-old trans girl SCOTUS ruled against yesterday) from James Dale, a gay man whose expulsion from the Boy Scouts was upheld by the Supreme Court in 2000.

Big peaks in ComEd this week

Why is it so unusually expensive to replace lead pipes in Chicago?

dead internet theory has hit goose

i don't want to speak too soon but i think this stuff actually works for me ????

The youngest Americans who voted in an election where the USSR existed are now 56.

it's gonna be SO funny if they retracted this bc they published it too early

I think it’s horrifying there’s actual people that aren’t communists these days 10 men in the US have the wealth of half the planet, 2 billion people live in slums, and we are setting the planet on fire and you will still sit here and defend class based exploitation and private wealth

i'm considering selling my place and renting for a year to free up the equity and make the search for my next place a bit easier, but... yikes... these rentals, sis

The Supreme Court on December 12, 2000:

All of these cases are basically litmus tests for any Dem nominee. Are immigrants Americans? Do trans Americans deserve human rights? Are corporations superhumans who get to spend endlessly on elections to put whoever they want into power? These are simple questions with simple answers.

"but what about next time when we lose miserably for not actually doing anything when we had some modicum of power"

What a year the last five minutes were.

great piece from incarcerated writer ian valencia about how prison rape jokes help obscure and normalize violence behind bars. the latest from the @chicagoreader.com's inside voices series:

i thought it would be less close but still fucked up

Justice Alito has died on the bench

By a 5-4 vote, SCOTUS agrees that the Constitution is constitutional

This is what the moderates got us.

This country was one person's vote away this morning from putting any birthright citizen in danger of being deported tomorrow. We are so much closer to the abyss than we think. Man oh man.

there's no saving this government imo

People say America can't accomplish anything, that we've stopped dreaming big. Well, today, after *years* of work, the combined resources of the Executive, Legislative, and Judicial branches (as well as the media) came together to prevent some girls in Idaho from playing high school softball.

every woman should buy a gun, especially every trans woman

constitutional birthright citizenship survives by 1 vote. and to think people were worried about this beautiful institution.
