Good old Loopy Star here to remind us all that you actually don't need AI to make shitty art people love! #middleschoolpoetaesthetic
The only people I know who speed read poetry have also recommended the poetry of a certain person I won’t mention but whose name rhymes with Loopy Star. And also The 4 Hour Work Week.
Every so often I remember a poet who lightheartedly made fun of me for taking such a long time to read a book of poetry. I think of it whenever I take my sweet ass time reading anything. I do read poetry more slowly than I read prose, and I like it that way.

And a reminder the "ceasefire" has not stopped the IOF from continually bombing Palestinians. Israel has always had more hostages and we should be demanding THEY release their hostages.
More than 300 Palestinian children remain in Israeli prisons, according to Defense for Children International–Palestine. Nearly half are being held without charges. interc.pt/3Lvwd2t

Just give people money to buy food. Every people. Every people can have food money. Yay, farmers have money and people have food and nobody's baby goes to bed hungry. Food is not something you should have to be worthy of. What a concept.
Both times I've been on SNAP, I was recently laid off from Tech jobs in the Bay Area. Nothing in my life looked different, but I knew my cupboards were bare.
It annoys me when people say “they’re on SNAP but their hair and nails are done and they’ve got tattoos”. It’s extremely normal to do your own hair and buy press on nails, and tattoos literally last forever. What do tattoos someone got 10 years ago have to do with them needing to eat now

Rather than ranting about how annoying I find this post, I would like to just point out that Biden has beady eyes like a haunted doll and that fact speaks for itself.

While this is hopeful, I HIGHLY doubt they'll follow through. They'll find a really good reason to demonize the protestors for being "unreasonably violent"
I just watched the video of the Portland Cop threatening to arrest an ICE agent if they drive their truck through a crowd. Now I see this where the General of the Oregon National Guard says if they get called up they will protect the protesters. People are fed up.

Brigadier General Alan R. Gronewold made the comments to state lawmakers Sept. 30, and they drew notice on social media this week.

A group of 53 people with #LongCOVID joined a clinical trial for Vyvgart. For many of them, the treatment changed everything.

Then, without warning, Argenx canceled the trial.

Most of them have now relapsed.

So reminder this is why we're ACAB. This is what our cops DO. It's Breonna Taylor all over again and the countless people whose lives are taken on the daily by our pigs. Fucking cowards not owning up to their own mistakes.
Police raided the wrong home, killed an innocent woman, then planted marijuana in her basement to cover up their mistake.

Honestly Taylor just needs to stop writing about herself and go back to Folklore mode, you cannot write confessional poetry about being rich and beefing unless you’re a rapper

My chronic illness curse is I overcompensate because I feel guilty for not “doing enough” which makes people think I’m *way* more capable of doing stuff than I actually am, so they ask for more, so I feel more guilty, so I overcompensate more. It’s a real mystery why I keep crashing!

Hot take: if you're capable of impregnating somebody, and you're anti-abortion, you don't deserve to be dating anyone who can become pregnant. At all. Imagine willingly coexisting alongside someone who sees more value in a cluster of cells than in your own life. And then we MARRY these men? Wtf

God the way older generations will write articles on us being "puritans" and "sexless" and in reality we just have more + safer contraceptive/abortion access and our teen pregnancy rates have dropped significantly. Y'all gave us the tools, now you're mad you can't tell your kid is active? Or what? 💀
