I am struggling with the knowledge that one of the other victims in the case back in Utah has taken his own life.

I plan to ask the detective about providing my information to that victim's family. And now, to do what I do and ... agitate for change.

I am struggling with the knowledge that one of the other victims in the case back in Utah has taken his own life. I do not know when it happened, only that it did. I have spent all day thinking about the reports and wondering which victim ... I only know limited information from the detective.

ah yes, all workers should have the right to hurl racial slurs at black customers
“Those of us on the left should be fighting to improve protections for workers of all races, and thereby for the betterment of people’s material conditions regardless of their views,” Arash Azizi argues:
Why the Cinnabon Story Doesn’t Make Me Happy
The left should be promoting working-class solidarity, not delighting in seeing workers summarily dismissed.

It’s been two weeks since ICE took Yuanxin Zheng from his father. He is six years old. He’s still not home. This has to end.

Ossoff: "This is so much deeper than the politics. What does it say about the moral condition of this Congress that the thing that has them all tied up in knots is a very simple question: Should people's health insurance premiums go up double or triple? This is a policy choice."

There's a post over on Twitter that I've been laughing to myself about. Some right-wing guy is celebrating that a school took down "All-Gender" bathroom signs and replaced them with "Single Occupancy Restroom" signs. And like... it's the same thing, man. You're celebrating a pointless relabeling.

Once again, I need people to stop confusing the order of your awareness with the order of oppression.

Ableism is not new. The popularity of ableist beliefs, including those about ADHD, is not new, and it’s pretty insulting to watch you “discover” it like a European guy tripping over a continent.

This is not the news I wanted for christmas.

Sadly my mom’s lung cancer has begun to spread to her right lung. We are still processing this information, just when we thought she was getting better of it.

This is sadly the worst news we have received of her cancer.

According to a new study, members of Congressional leadership perform 47% better in stock market trades than their rank-and-file peers, thanks to access to nonpublic information.

Today would be a great day to ban ALL elected officials from trading stock, don't you think?

My spouse urged me to do that appointment. I am sure many couples are having these back & forths about one appt or another and can we do this one or not? It's incredibly stressful. I feel the countdown to the higher premium coming due.

Please keep contacting your reps about ACA subsidies, too!

The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service
