The fruit bowl on the counter contains a banana flanked by two peaches, and that’s why I giggle when I enter the kitchen.

The GOAL OF THE PATRIARCHY IS TO DRIVE WOMEN FROM PUBLIC LIFE. That's why every woman should be a trans ally. Eliminating trans/nonbinary people is a necessary first step to the gendered inequality they intend.

In 1970, students in a fifth-grade class at Hawthorne School in Beverly Hills were assigned to write a letter to someone they admired, asking them “What makes a good citizen?" So 10yr old Joel Lipton wrote to Peanuts cartoonist Charles M. Schulz. Joel got a reply.

I am convinced that we could head off 90% of this looksmaxxing/manosphere nonsense if we made GIRL SHY (1924) required viewing in the 4th or 5th grade (approx. ages 9-11)

Its why this meme is so great imo

I know you’re on vacation @kenwhite.bsky.social but would love your thoughts when you get back on the owner of the Serpent’s Key shop in PA, who faces huge fines and prison for tarot reading under a 1861 anti-witchcraft law. Bizarre situation.

Hawaiʻi families shouldn’t have to pay a premium simply because they live on an island. It’s time for real solutions that work for our communities—not just the mainland.

This paragraph is MAHA-speak for "we don't want teens taking birth control." That term doesn't appear in this grant notice once, by the way simpler.grants.gov/opportunity/... files.simpler.grants.gov/opportunitie...

Oh that’s me!

Wake up babe, new schism just dropped

Again, need to say it - if Biden, Obama or any other Democratic President publicly endorsed Iran having ballistic missiles after launching an ill advised war to essentially eliminate Iran's missile launching capabilities - Congress (even a Dem led one) would launch impeachment proceedings next day.

People laughed when Trump said the war would only end with unconditional surrender but he's a man of his word and he has now surrendered unconditionally

Two – GTFO with the liver and ranch dressing. Everything else I’m down for.

I made this Pride flag using only NASA images and our team thought it would be cool to share on social (I work on the NASA heliophysics communications team), but it's getting all sorts of hate on the bird app and Fbook. Thought y'all might be more appreciative of it here. ☺️🏳️‍🌈💖

“The Al is not just telling you what you want to hear. It is training you, one conversation at a time, to need less friction, expect more agreement, and become slightly less capable of handling a situation where someone pushes back on you”

Trump on Iran War: Reporter: What extent are Americans’ financial situation motivating you to make a deal? Trump: Not even a little bit. I don't think about Americans’ financial situation

"One study found that increasing the number of people who receive SNAP benefits by 5 percent could have prevented nearly 32,000 suicides over 15 years. And a $1 increase in minimum wage has been linked to roughly 8,000 fewer suicide deaths over a decade."

Roe V. Wade

Hawaii's legislature has passed S.B. 2471 with overwhelming bipartisan support. The bill would no longer grant corporations the power to spend money in Hawaiian politics. It will face legal challenges, but stranger things have happened. Full story⬇️⬇️⬇️ www.courthousenews.com/hawaii-legis...

New headcanon accepted.

Hawai‘i could be the first state to legislatively fight the scummy SCOTUS Citizens United travesty. Hopefully, Governor Green will sign SB2471 and start the flood of reform against the flood of dark money in politics!

Gas is $5.63 on average (for regular). I haven’t seen the inside of a restaurant in months. People have credit card debt just for groceries. Random people keep coming to my house, asking to trim trees or power-wash the driveway – that’s new. Everyone’s broke and hustling. And no sign of hope.

My son has had a book for years called "Sharks For Kids." Every time I see the cover, I get the original jingle stuck in my head. 🦈 🎶 1-877 Sharks For Kids, S-H-A-R-K-S Sharks For Kids, Donate your shark today 🎶 🦈

A woman can’t be mailed the pill that terminates her ties to an abuser, but he can be mailed the gun that terminates her life.

The Sargent at Arms blocks Representative Justin Pearson from Memphis from entering a committee meeting about redrawing the map specifically for the district he represents.

@hallierubenhold.bsky.social I just finished reading The Five, thank you for this book! I learned so much. Off to read everything else you’ve ever written (also, Harlots is one of my favorite shows). Finally, a historian who sees the humanity of women and SW!!

I love the idea of this movie but I feel like the main character would simply drop from smallpox in the first few minutes and The End.

Comparing people’s living conditions in 1901 to now is already silly & serves no meaningful purpose so let’s talk about numbers that matter to Alive People In 2016 Elon Musk’s wealth was 11 billion dollars. Today it is 800 billion dollars. Federal minimum wage in 2009 was 7.25. Today it is 7.25.

I’m trying a diet that recommends berries as the only fruit since they’re lower in carbs, so I got Costco berries and was reminded why I do not ever eat berries in Hawai’i. 🤢 I love fresh berries but this ain’t it. I will be sticking with local bananas and papaya for my fruits, thx. Taste > carbs.

I am a lifelong restaurant business person. You 86 eggs Benedict when you run out of hollandaise sauce. It’s quite different than saying you will end a civilization if you run out of hollandaise sauce.

When I am dictator of the world, the first thing I will eliminate is those stupid removable bra cutlets in women’s clothing. The ones that always get twisted up weird and out of position. Banned. Either sew the bra pads in or just don’t have them!

Some 25 years ago I walked in on my ex watching porn. For some reason (I'm pro-porn, it was fine!) he panicked and stammered, "Oh I was just um watching um just y'know watching – watching the internet." To this day I still use the phrase "watching the internet" to mean fapping to porn. It's gold.

Ok but the king looks like a 4yo playing dress-up. There is a way to make that regalia look regal but this ain’t it. Paging @dieworkwear.bsky.social for a proper shaming.
