It’s so interesting to see friends in STEM careers grow more and more certain in their belief in God, while myself and my liberal arts friends who study religion and philosophy have all become atheists over time.

This #BlackHistoryMonth, I need my fellow Asian Americans to recognize and reevaluate our proximity to Whiteness, acknowledge the ways in which we are complicit in the oppression of Black people, and challenge how systems award us power and privilege, not for being Asian but, for not being Black.

Never shutting up about how children are still an oppressed class and the ageism they face is more invisible and normalized than any other age group.

Today on the pod we celebrate blind American inventor Tim Cranmer, creator of the Cranmer abacus!

Please listen to disabled & marginalized people

We’ve been trying to warn you for years

We’re in an unprecedented time. History is repeating itself & fascism is back.

You may not see it because you’re not a “target”. You may not care because you think you’re safe.

No one is safe. Fight with us

Okay I am new to blue.sky - I am testing the atmosphere,

#Therapy is Political.

Waits.

I have to start paying off my student loans this summer. But with the potential EO that would shut down the DOE looming over our heads, will there be a way for me to get a guarantee that my money is going to the government and not, say, opportunistic unelected individuals attempting a coup?

I do not take your leftist politics seriously if you don’t even make the effort to mask on an as-needed basis. Preaching about harm reduction and mutual aid doesn’t mean shit if you’re willing to throw our most vulnerable, marginalized populations under the bus because you can’t be inconvenienced.

A note on a historical perspective on how those of us witnessing genocide can help #Gaza moving forward 🇵🇸🕊️ (1/2)

And more!
