She/Her. 28. Still hasn't learned how to use social media after nearly 20 years.

For everyone saying that SCOTUS can’t constitutionally end birthright citizenship… look, they’re not going to come outright and say “we overrule the 14th amendment of the United States.”

I don't know who needs to hear this, but you don't need to justify your reading preferences and choices to anyone. Audiobooks count as reading. Also, you don't have to finish books you don't enjoy. Don't read to impress, read for yourself. Life's too short, love yourself, ok?

Sednaya prison outside of Damascus is called the human slaughterhouse. The things that I read happened there will never leave me. Just the absolute most twisted things a human can come up with.

The fact that we’re counting down the minutes to it being obliterated is beyond. Just incredible.

Korea's preeminent *conservative* paper of record exclusively reports that President Yoon ordered someone at the National Intelligence Service (Korean CIA) to arrest the head of his own party (who would later vote against martial law) and when the NIS man refused, ordered his dismissal.

US Border Patrol agents are denying asylum access to families fleeing violence in Mexico, treating them abusively and dismissively, and returning them to the country they fled in fear.

Current practices violate US and international human rights law.
