Don't abandon your values. Define and reinforce them. Let them guide your next steps. Your job is to be kind and humane. Your job is not to make political compromises or try to relive the past.

The heart wants what it wants. It wants wanting. It wants being wanted. It wants being wanted without being left wanting. I understood this.

Yes, Trump is an extraordinary pathology in American politics. But it’s run-of-the-mill GOP politicians who have empowered RFK Jr to kill innumerable children with his lunacy.
Trump has murdered at least 83 people with extrajudicial military strikes on alleged drug-trafficking boats.

He needs to face consequences for this.

His secretary of DHHS, RFK Jr., will kill several orders of magnitude more with this disinformation.
This is completely disgusting. Today, the CDC updated their vaccine safety page. It now says:

“The claim "vaccines do not cause autism" is not an evidence-based claim because studies have not ruled out the possibility that infant vaccines cause autism”.

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market.

Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today.

Four giants control 80% of meat processing.

A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry.

The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.

Another reminder that a 13-year study found that protected bike-lanes led to a drastic decline in fatalities for all road users.

ALL ROAD USERS.

And painted bike-lanes? No safety improvement at all.

For sharrows, it’s actually safer to NOT have them.

Cities that build protected lanes for cyclists end up with safer roads for people on bikes and people in cars and on foot, a new study of 12 large metropolises revealed Wednesday.

Yes, I understand that this is journalism.

The key here is that these are not public figures, and there is no compelling public interest in releasing the specific text from e.g. the possible domestic violence victim presented in one of the screenshots.

Remember: The richest 1% evade over $160 billion in taxes every year.

That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare.

Ask yourself who the real freeloaders are.

Not to mention trans kids who also get the 'you should be stoned to death' treatment while Christian parents perform heartache
I’ve learned from Christian fathers that the parable of the prodigal son is not for daughters

A prodigal son is always welcome home

A prodigal daughter is always a woman caught in adultery

She is sacrificed to please her church or her stepmom & her father speaks of heartache to justify himself

My most woke opinion is that the US is a settler slave colony and the world cannot be free until the anti-Black settler state ceases to exist

Moreover, ICE must be destroyed
"my least woke opinion is---"

That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.

Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

Does the EU want to continue to foment the kind of bigotry and exclusionism that lead to a "make America great again" movement? Seems like many in the EU do. And no velvet glove can hide the moral bankruptcy of sending asylum seekers back to the danger they are fleeing from.
