I feel much safer today knowing that we deported a Babson College student back to a country where she hasn't lived since childhood.

She wasn't even flying internationally. She was flying to Texas.

We know that, for a ton of reasons, a lot of folks don't have as much to spend as they'd like this holiday season. Sooooooo, here's a thread of things you can do that will support your local indie bookstore or other business WITHOUT spending any more than you intended...

I didn’t want an even bigger phone that I need two hands to use. I didn’t want one with no home button. I didn’t want one with no headphone jack.

I cling to phones as long as possible because every time they introduce new ones, they keep removing the features I want.
If a phone still works fine, it’s not “device hoarding” to keep using it. It’s common sense.

Australia recorded ZERO cases of cervical cancer in women under 25 for the first time since they started tracking the cancer in the 80s.

This is the power of vaccines.

The HPV vaccine is extremely effective at preventing cancer.

Viruses can be oncogenic. Get your vaccines and protect yourself!
newsGP - Australia set for world-first cervical cancer elimination
Vaccination programs have played a key role, and GPs remain ‘instrumental’ in boosting screening rates to reach the 2035 target.

No. The Thing is a movie about a bunch of people who all distrust and hate each other trapped in one building as the tension between them slowly builds until it reaches a breaking point. It's a Thanksgiving movie.

Masculinity has long defined itself as the negative space surrounding the "female" and "gay" spheres and as those spheres have expanded, "men" have felt cornered. Now they've added a "left" sphere to avoid and have almost no room to enjoy anything.
So many men go through life like that. You can play poker because it's right-coded, you can't enjoy fruity alcoholic drinks because they're women-coded, you can't lick an ice cream cone because it's gay-coded. All day, every day, choosing and judging things based on coding for narrow norms.

Hey kids. I just talked to your bosses. They said you can knock off early. No don’t ask them. Close up shop. Pencils down. Hit the road. Safe travels and enjoy a piping hot cup of gravy. Also steal whatever office supplies you want on your way out. It’s cool. For real.

ICE deported a woman who owned a home in the US for 30 years. A judge banned ICE from deporting her to Sierra Leone where she had been tortured, so it deported her to Ghana, which kidnapped her and sent her back Sierra Leone anyway. ICE is part of this illegal conspiracy.

So I basically don’t drink anymore and I’m tired of having to explain how the reflux isn’t worth it. I can only imagine what it’s like for someone who’s in recovery, or trying to get pregnant.
Just a friendly reminder as we go into the holidays:

Folks don't have to explain to you why they don't drink.

If you offer them a drink and they decline, don't ask them why. It's not your business.

Just offer them something without alcohol to drink instead. And move on.

The presenter at this training suggested folks stop in at local businesses with “Immigrants Welcome” signs & offer this (or similar) more useful & forceful alternative. Something small you can do when you have a bit of time. I am.

Everyone stop acting weird and shocked about MTG. She has been systematically distancing herself from the current GOP for months and months. She has a plan reform herself under a new image ON THE RIGHT that’s not part of a sinking ship.

She’s not suddenly changing her tune! SHE’S AN OPPORTUNIST
