Detroiter. Immigrant. Mom.
I called my senators and donated $50 to my local food pantry.

As an immigrant, I really just don’t believe y’all care about ICE. None of you said something about it during the inter-Trump period.

I wrote this and a couple people responded with offers to help! That’s really rad!!
I genuinely think people do what they can. They don’t know how. I want someone to let people know how terrible my local county jail is. I don’t have a clue how to do that. There isn’t an infrastructure for activism in the U.S.

A friend of mine is a state legislator and she decided not to run for re-election because the job doesn’t pay enough to cover her daycare costs and living expenses.
people hate hearing this but it's 100% true, creating a huge pay gap between political leaders, their staffs, and other elites is a recipe for corruption. of course the flip side of that is taxes on the rich should be jacked way the hell up
The Mayor of New York only makes $260k. I bet there are police that make more than that in NY with overtime.

We need to pay elected leaders more money and stop pretending it's some sort of calling. They're managing hundreds of billions of dollars in investments and millions of people's lives.

If you’re going to suggest someone do something and then get mad when that person asks how to do what you suggested, maybe don’t make the suggestion. 🤷‍♀️ This might be the most demoralizing interaction I’ve ever had with another human being.
Look, folks generally want to help, yeah? You said you wanted to do something but didn't know where to start. I offered a feasible suggestion. If you don't want suggestions, don't put it out there! You even got a nice offer from someone to help! Have a blessed day anyways.

It’s crazy that the US government, on both sides honestly, is run by deeply unserious people. Government shut downs should be a thing.

Why does melon get to be the default melon when watermelon and honeydew melon are so much better?

I don’t like August

I’m 25 weeks pregnant and my husband, @maxmilstein.bsky.social, called the paramedics because I fainted yesterday. The most depressing aspect of my trip to the ER was talking to paramedic on the ride over about Max.

Chuck Schumer, John Fetterman, Catherine Cortez Masto, Brian Schatz, Dick Durbin, Kirsten Gillibrand, Gary Peters, Maggie Hassan, Jeanne Shaheen, and Angus King need to be primaried.

The sentiment of the American public seems to be “How dare the Democrats not be in power when we voted them out of power!”

I feel like politics was less annoying when fewer people were interested.

It’s kinda crazy to me what they could put in a G rated movie in the 70’s.

3-year-old: What happened to the deep blue sea?

I thought the tradeoff withe Project 2025 was that they'd be more organized. Maybe more evil than the first term, but also more competent.

Nope! Maybe more evil, but they're still a bunch of unserious people who don't seem to care about their jobs.

Man, I knew it was going to be bad. I didn’t know it’d be this bad this fast.

My husband & I have been trying to conceive a second child for a couple years now. I’m in a couple online support groups for this. It’s common for Republican women get really upset when you acknowledge what Republicans are doing to women’s health care.

Can you imagine how much people would lose their minds if the NYT wrote a piece about Ukraine not having a right to exist or defend itself?

Trying to decide if it’s worth it to spend the $500 for a certificate of naturalization.

Pres. Trump is working diligently to destroy the economy and raise unemployment, eventually freeing us from having to use Teams.
