@teenvogue.com this is gross.
I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.
certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

Faces along the bar
Cling to their average day:
The lights must never go out,
The music must always play...
Lest we should see where we are,
Lost in a haunted wood,
Children afraid of the night
Who have never been happy or good.

"Let's not take the soul-sucking path of sacrificing the most persecuted for that which we deem to be most popular. I know that there are transgender children right now looking out at this world and wondering if anyone is going to stand up for them and for their simple right to exist. Well, I am."

The President of the United States is calling for the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians.
There are more than 2 million people in the Gaza Strip, nearly half of them are children.
Absolutely vile. He must be held accountable for his genocidal remarks.

It’s technically legal for Jafar to mesmerize the sultan with his cobra staff. A vizier’s job is to offer suggestions and Agrabah regulations never say they can’t be hypnotic suggestions

Elected democrats may differ from their constituents in that they enjoy total financial security and are unaffected by the kind of precarity that most americans experience but there's one thing about them that is extremely relatable which is that they'd rather post than do their jobs

Today is the feast of St Brigid. According to legend, Brigid met a nun in 7th century Ireland who had broken her vow of chastity and become pregnant. St Brigid performed a miracle when she laid hands on the woman, prayed, and induced an abortion.

Deleted my @target #target account in solidarity with protestors and told them they clearly don't value women so they don't need our money.
Without Target, Amazon and Walmart, where ya'll shopping for non-bulk items?

Trump's first two weeks back in office has been filled with chaos and dysfunction. But none of it is random.
It's part of a plot to spread cynicism and get you to check out.
Oligarchs don't want you to keep paying attention. That's how they win.
Don't tune out. Don't let them win.

Yes, but also I want in on the toxicity.
I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.
Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO
