Just let me have peace, man.
My mother was the one reassuring ME when she said her cancer came back. I was inconsolable. Then as her caregiver, I knew she needed me to be her safe place. She always put on a smile for others but I saw the raw and vulnerable side. It was so isolating.. Please step up for those who need you.
So often people with cancer find themselves in the position of reassuring others.
I didn’t always mind this. But I hoped that my care for them would be reciprocated. Often it was. But not always.

There is no real feminism that embraces exclusionary definitions of womanhood based on patriarchal notions of gender. I don’t care how anyone defines “woman.” I care abt the people patriarchy oppresses & those who benefit & perpetuate that oppression

Foreign Friends with Travel Plans to the U.S. for Conventions:
A bit back I said you should maybe reconsider those plans.
I would like to amend my prior statement.
Cancel them. Cancel them now. We cannot keep you safe from our own government. Take your holiday in Spain or something.

Lori Beth Denberg was my favorite part of All That and I'm delighted to see she's just as funny now as then.
Lori Beth Denberg reprised her All That librarian character to do a pro-library, anti-book banning reel and I love it so much??? www.instagram.com/reel/DIK0_bD...

Every time I see a cybertruck in the wild it's like sorry I don't believe a real person bought one of these with their own money. These are paid actors
