As a survivor of child abuse and sexual assault, knowing that adults weren’t going to believe me over my perpetrators kept me quiet for years. Children should not be required to gather evidence to prove abuse is happening to them. We need to #believechildren and #believesurvivors
Police didn’t believe a 12-year-old who said she'd been raped. Then she hit record.
“If I didn’t find the evidence for them, I wasn’t too sure they would find it.”

How has the Republican Party continued to let this man speak and they all just nod along?! Now they want to take over (colonize) Gaza Strip and displace (forceably remove) the very people who have been fighting for their homeland by saying “they are only there because they don’t have a choice”?!

With the state of our world as it is, moving towards unity and peace will only come once we have less toxic masculinity at the head of our governments. We need to decolonize our thoughts, our actions, and our government.

We envision a world where all transgender people can live freely and openly as ourselves.
We will keep fighting for that vision in and out of the courts.

Growing up in Florida, February was the only time Black culture was talked about. We need to remember Black history, support Black businesses, and support our Black friends and family today and every day. #Blackhistorymonth
Black History Month is a month to celebrate. A month to remember. A month to reflect on. A month we must remember.

With so many retail places putting shareholders and federal pressure over consumers who drive the business, I’m becoming a Costco member. Knowing they’re paying their staff decently and refuse to roll back DEI Initiatives means I’m willing to spend my money there.
Costco is raising pay for most workers as Friday night deadline looms on a new contract with its unionized employees.

Looks like I’m adding Target to the #boycott list

Witnessed around 2 dozen lights flying across the Portland sky tonite. They came from the West and disappeared E/SE. 2 video I took shows the last of them in tight formation. Any one know what’s up?
