“Grab ‘em by the pussy” should have been the end
Taking away women’s rights should have been the end
The insurrection should have been the end
Deportations without due process should have been the end
Will tariffs be the end?

Risk can decrease slowly after ceasing consumption.

THREAD: In 2023, I received an envelope with no return address. Inside was a flash drive containing tens of 1000s of secret files.
It came from a vigilante with a tumultuous past, who'd conducted a years-long undercover operation. He didn’t tell the FBI or his family. He only told me.

Pregnancy is considered a pre-existing medical condition if you're already pregnant when you sign up for health insurance.

As I argue in that piece, you can read entire articles about Trump/Mexico mess that don't tell you this basic fact.
