The adultification of girls really begins with Black girls.

Calling a Black girl grown or fast or whatever as quickly evolves into "underage women" for white girls. This is #TheDoubleTax.

In an attempt to absolve themselves of responsibility, those involved are trying to introduce consent where consent could simply not be present.

These girls were not adults. They were girls. Words mean things.

Also, "underage women" isn't a thing. If they're under age, they're not women. That's what under age literally means.

There isn't a “depth and extent” of the relationship with Epstein that should ever have been tolerable and the equivocation by Labour MP after Labour MP is an insult to every victim.

I feel like I have known Sama'a & her family so long that we've always been friends, I sometimes forget that there may be those who may not know her because they haven't been given the chance. Sama'a is a wonderful person & a caring mother please help her my friends.

To everyone who transitioned later in life:

Thank you for reminding us that life doesn’t run out of chances.

You’ve shown that new beginnings can happen at any age.

And that happiness can still find you, no matter when you start.

This is civic action.

Surprise, Arizona. Pop. 167,000. Huge crowd shows up to the City Council meeting to oppose DHS recent purchase of ginormous warehouse. Meeting + overflow room filled and hundreds more gathered outside.

130 people sign up to speak. 128 opposed to ICE warehouse.
The overflow room at the Surprise City Council meeting has also filled up (it has a 500 person capacity). I can’t tell how many are still outside but we can hear them chanting “ICE out” in here so it seems like quite a lot.

Poem For Women Wednesday
~ Andrea Gibson

Before I die, I want to be somebody's favorite hiding place, the place they can put everything they know they need to survive, every secret, every solitude, every nervous prayer, and be absolutely certain I will keep it safe.

I will —keep it safe.

No. No one is buying this. Stop the constant lying to excuse yourselves for turning a blind eye.

You are pale but unqualified.You will never be a ghost or spectre. You can pretend to haunt forests, glide through fog as if you can disappear but you will always shine too brightly. You will never scare. Things will approach cautiously but will never be afraid.

Pleased to see the jury make this decision.

We need to have eyes wide open this is exactly why the Government wants to abolish juries.

People protesting against a genocide are not the criminals here - it's the politicians who continue to provide cover.

I’ve always argued that that the desire to be a billionaire is a sign of malfunction. The desire to hoard more resources than you can consume in a single lifetime is a sign that something is broken in someone’s wiring.
