Not “underaged” girls!

Girls
Teenagers
Children
Minors
Middle Schoolers and High Schoolers

No such thing as an “ underage” girl. That’s the language of propaganda and apologists.

Epstein and Trump sexually abused and raped CHILDREN.

On this Veteran's Day, I am thinking of the Over 1.2 million U.S. veterans who currently rely on SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) benefits to afford food. And of the approximately 20,000 military families using SNAP benefits, along with 213,000 National Guard and Reserve members.

Ok! Something to truly celebrate on this confusing and frustrating day!

Heritage Foundation’s ongoing (and so far successful) effort to take over NH by recruiting young, conservative “libertarians” and getting to move to NH and run for office. They vote against school funding and social programs etc. Why isn’t this more in the news?

Re : Melissa.
30 years ago author John Barnes gave me nightmares with the novel “Mother of Storms” The causes were a bit different and the solution is unattainable but the impact on the population is similarly devastating. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mother_...

Ok @cnn.com You are really ok with posting a story that includes this line: "Barack Obama engaged in the “big dig” that retrofitted the Situation Room and dug out space under the West Wing for who knows whatever else."

This reads like a 4th grader's C- essay. DO BETTER.

Note that I especially love that Randy fully committed to the principle of "Tactical Frivolity" that has been gracing protests from Portland Oregon to Portland Maine.

My favorite thing about the #FrogResistance is that we’ve reclaimed amphibians from that ugly incel-groyper-pepe thing. Hurray Portland and the world of tactical frivolity!

“It is fashionable among elites now to frame the majority of people as “NPCs,” or non-player characters, in the parlance of video games: unthinking, sheeplike, atomized automatons. “

A gut punch because it is true in all aspects of our lives now, not just jobs.

This is what retirement looks like! Betsy and I are spending our first week of NOT-teaching standing up for the constitution and our neighbors. Also ran into my friend @suzbrockmann.bsky.social and her husband, Ed.

Given that Class III obesity (formerly morbid obesity) is a medical condition, how is this not an ADA violation?

I need help if anyone is techy- good at sourcing video. A fb acquaintance is sharing the following video from a group called Lexit. I am positive it’s altered- certainly the sound has been added. He’s riling up anti-Arab sentiment. I want to counter. Thx

Feeling melancholy. Vet told us today that our Elton is in the “ end stage “ and we’ll be saying goodbye soon. He’s just an old man now. But he’s always a love.

Even a stopped clock….

Coke currently uses high fructose corn syrup which is way worse than sugar for your body.

Fast food restaurants exist and people will eat there. This is the kind of change we talk about when comparing our food here to European food.

Trump says Coca-Cola will swap corn syrup for cane sugar in US - 'It's just better!' - BBC News
Coca-Cola said they "appreciate President Trump's enthusiasm", without confirming they plan to make the tweak.

Retired last month after 42 years teaching. Still care enough about my working colleagues to lobby and stand out for a fair fix to the messed up Retirement Plus program that creates inequity, and burdens our most dedicated educators in Massachusetts.

It’s always more complicated than a sound bite.

Facts for when you’re arguing with 0AN watchers: yes Trump HAD to destroy 500 tons of food aid- it’s expiring.

Why? Because he fired all of the USAID employees who would have made sure it was distributed!
