He does not plan to leave. He is changing the rule book and he has the weight of the oligarchy behind him.

Trump’s team has really got me on my toes. I feel like I’ve been reading non stop, calling senators, informing others and planning my part in local marches thanks to the flurry of bullshit he’s flinging all at once. All while he’s taking away my personal freedoms. I fucking hate this timeline.

“We will need to undergo a similar national education campaign to help people understand why gender affirming care and social acceptance are so important to the basic humanity of trans people.”

Not me searching for mobility aids that I can’t afford. #ushealthcare sucks

Erasing history is not the way. Growing up in Alabama, the Tuskegee Airmen were a staple of our education. I couldn’t imagine a world where I didn’t know about their accomplishments.

thrift stores shouldn't know the value of what they have. when a thrift store prices the good shit better than the rest of the junk that's insulting to me. that's a violation of the social contract

I keep thinking about this. If you define "masculine virtues" as "integrity, honesty, honor and generosity" (to use the example I keep seeing reposted), then what are the "feminine virtues"? What about being an honest honorable person is inherently masculine?

when I was a kid the worst thing you could possibly be was something called a fart knocker. we didn't know if it was someone who farted or someone who was knocked by farts. all we knew is we didn't want to be one

The Supreme Court ruled corporations were allowed to donate unlimited amounts to politicians in 2010.

It only took them 6 years to take complete control of the government and 15 years to mark sure their voices are the only ones the masses ever hear again.
