i think a major roadblock for (USA) conservatives is their inability to see connections between things.
individual bias & systemic discrimination.
communal good & individual flourishing.
rights of marginalized groups & liberty for all.
consumerism & climate change.
just to name a few.

"why stand in unity with black folks and celebrate BHM when you're not black?"
1st of all because I'm a decent human being? Like, bare minimum stuff here.
Secondly, because these mofos think of us as less than dogs. And we stand together because we shall not be divided, ever.

LISTEN: There are a lot of folks out here working tirelessly to get the truth out there. Replying to us that nothing matters because there'll be no consequences is not only incorrect, but it belittles the work we do. It's insulting and shortsighted. Stop following us if you don't want the info.

Yeah, I didn't watch the Half Time show.
I also didn't watch the first half.
And I definitely skipped the last half.
This has been your annual "I don't watch football" post. Looking forward to making another one next year.

the joys of being in your 30s
My husband thinks I’m trying to seduce him by doing a sexy dance in the hallway, but I’m really just using a tennis ball to work a knot out of my shoulder.

Is there some sort of award for perfectly missing the point?

SO, she is calling her caseworker this morning to tell her what's going on and that she has half the money they say she owes.
SHE ONLY NEEDS $104 to keep her housing. 2-3 people could fix this today, please do!

If you're around, please do some #MutualAid for a DC grandmom who has taken in 5 grandchildren and suddenly owes the DC Housing Authority money. She's been struggling as she waits for various benefits. Please help her if you can! #DC #PayItForward

People ask me "why kelp is important". There's not enough space for all the reasons here but big reasons are that kelp can grow faster than any other any species fixing CO2, providing shelter and food. Urchins eat kelp plus they're "messy" eaters so they feed other species nearby.

1/ ProPublica collected handwritten letters in mid-January from children held at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, the same facility where 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was taken.
Hundreds of kids are still detained.
We’ll let the children’s words speak for themselves. 🧵

my mom wants me to ask you for flower commissions for $15 each (even one would make her so happy). you’ll get a scanned in digital version of a painting. She’ll be doing watercolors. If you want her flower art, all you have to do is drop a reference photo of a flower that you like in the comments.
