“The most common way people give up their power is by thinking they don't have any.”
Alice Walker

Misogyny is not the elevation of masculinity but its collapse, both as morality and as politics.

People not elected to government should not have the power to reshape the government, especially people whose obscene wealth depends on the government functioning a certain way.

This is not a hot take.

It's just plain common sense.

I think it’s pretty clear to Trump
does it?

"Christian Reconstructionism is now at the edge of power in the United States, and the attitude of the relevant people towards the female body and indeed towards rape is an essential element of what is happening and what is likely to happen."

There is some comedy around men explaining the plot of The Handmaid's Tale to its author, in response to her tweet. But this also reveals the tragedy beneath – of misunderstandings that point to the moral and therefore political vulnerability of the U.S.

There is a difference between covering or warning about (or even preparing to respond to) Trump's statements and preemptively giving into them.

I think it will be essential that we maintain that distinction going forward.

Trump saying something, especially right now, does not make it so.

Two decades of social media have taught some folks nothing and others everything.

I’m finding the coolest starter packs full of folks I didn’t see on other platforms and it’s amazing.

There are so many cool lists pin… it’s awesome.

I feel like I’ve been released from a curse.

Every single Republican will fall in line and every person Donald Trump nominates will be confirmed. No GOP Senator will stand in the gap because they’re all afraid Elon Musk will finance a primary against them. Let’s stop pretending otherwise.
