I'm a flight attendant and today while I was picking up trash an older woman was reading a book called "How to be a Trans Ally" and I got to thinking about how she probably has a grandchild or child who is trans and she's showing so much love by reading that book. 🥰🏳️🌈 It made me so emotional.

What an absolutely stellar book. Funny, informative and interesting look into the history and culture of hot dogs in America. The author is hilarious and does an excellent job laying out her thoughts on hot dogs, capitalism and American society! Definitely recommend! #rawdog #booksky #read

Saw someone say, "End your friendships with people who are going about life like nothing is wrong." I will never understand people who think that further isolating ourselves from everyday people who don't get it is going to save us. It's not. Your judgment and disdain will not save us.

Voter suppression is getting ramped up. Millions of people will not be able to register or vote if this goes into effect. #getout #speakup #uspolitics
The SAVE Act Would Disenfranchise Millions of Citizens
The SAVE Act would require all Americans to prove their citizenship with documentation unavailable to millions and upend the way every American citizen registers to vote.

The actual reason Trump wants to gut the Dept of Education? Greed.
His billionaire donor pals want tax breaks. They all want to go back to when education was unavailable to working people, a privilege of the rich.

Starting this today during my walk! I love when authors read their own audiobooks. I feel like it enhances the listening experience for me to hear the message direct from the author. Remember to read black books and celebrate black stories all year long! #booksky #blackhistorymonth #werefuse

“I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.
"No shit," said Gandalf, "It isn't as if most people wish for this kinda of fuckshit to rain down on them. It sucks. It totally sucks. Why do you think I have so much 'pipeweed' on me at all times? C'mon now."
