Huh: TikTok took down my 8-second video featuring this image of Debbie Brockman — the news producer just detained by Trump’s CBP agents — saying it violates the “joy of TikTok”

Conservatives have built their own social media platforms, Trump has his own Twitter alternative, his allies are buying major social media platforms to weaponize for their propaganda and influence and we’re still arguing if having a left-leaning social media platform is a bad thing

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”
It costs a lot less to house people.

The masks ICE agents wear aren’t masks. They’re face coverings designed to hide their identity.
The masks disabled people have been pleading to normalize are KN95s, N95s and other respirators. Which will help protect you from COVID & other airborne threats!
Normalize masking for public health.

It feels so weird being someone who still masks regularly. Currently on the ferry and in the last hour and a half, I have only seen one other passenger wearing a mask. I know I cannot possibly encounter every person on this boat to see if they’re masked or not…but it still gives me pause.

There’s so much I want in life, especially as it relates to my creativity, and yet I’m always minimizing myself and standing in my way still… I really want to know how to turn mindfulness into action.

It would be so great to get a single major social platform that isn't run by or doesn't cater to right wing extremists

Why is jogging like THE activity for a protagonist in a drama film? It’s a weirdly common character point that always sets a scene as either “running is my reflective time in the face of stress (aka the story arc)!” or, as filler scenes

Forced to constantly think my very existence is a nuisance at best and that even the slightest misstep could make the people around me uncomfortable.
