Target is joining a wave of US companies pulling back on diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives, as right-wing pressure leads companies to alter their commitment to hiring diverse candidates and expanding access.

Some of the biggest brands in America, including Amazon, Meta, Walmart and McDonald’s, have recently changed or ended their DEI programs. But e.l.f. Beauty, a popular cosmetics brand, is a rare company vocally touting its diversity efforts and inclusive marketing

Gaslighting is the entire GOP playbook. From ‘biggest crowd ever’ to ‘normal tourist visit,’ they’re betting you’ll ignore reality. If we allow them to keep rewriting history, they’ll keep burning the truth to the ground.

I don't really use TikTok that much, but I find it fascinating that our government is on the verge of banning an app for national security reasons that are still unclear in the same week that Meta, the largest social media company, says it's now fine to hate LGBTQ people and call us mentally ill.

It's official. I'm getting old. I injured my knee while sitting and doing absolutely nothing today. I was in an Uber and the guy slammed on the brakes unexpectedly. For some reason, when I tensed up, I also tensed my knees........and now my knee hurts.

Farewell sweet youth. 🥹

I'm just realizing that Trump's inauguration is also on Martin Luther King Day. 🤦🏽‍♀️

I left my beloved FJ Cruiser with my parents. My Dad asked me recently if he could borrow it and made his case for why it will benefit Samson (my FJ) if he goes for a ride on the open road. 😅 Hilariously, I would have never told my dad no. But I love that he respected me enough to ASK.

Reflexive verbs in Spanish are the absolute worst. Someone invented this just torture me. I'm convinced. 🥲

Providing birth control to women instead of policing their bodies is the REAL way to lessen the number of abortions.

Lessons to be learned.

I got summoned for jury duty in Georgia and obviously can't make it because I currently live in Spain. They said I have to renounce my right to residency in my county, and thus, my right to vote, in order to be excused from jury duty.

Does anyone have experience with this?

I hadn't published anything on my WordPress blog in over a year. But a comment someone left about the US Elections on one of my much older posts inspired me to blog about it. The only good outcome of the US elections for me is that I already escaped to Spain a month prior.

So let me get this straight.

If you apply for a job at a grocery store, you have to undergo a background check.

But, if you apply to be Director of National Intelligence, you don't?

Got it.

I'm so tired of seeing this ad on the @cnn.com website. I'm reading about a woman's murder and there are 3 random people grinning in the middle of the text. I know news agencies need to pay their bills, but there must be a better way or more appropriate ways to advertise.

Nah, this is the wildest thing I've read all week. This man faked his death, left his wife and three children, and moved to Eastern Europe to go be with another woman. 🥲

Netflix - please stop minimising the end credits of movies to suggest something else. Let viewers enjoy the soundtrack and see the cast and crew that worked on the film. We'll exit it ourselves when ready to.
