the society i want to see brought about is one in which adopting a child out to strangers and pronouncing them “legally and practically dead” to their families is understood as a war crime and not as a way for celebrities to advertise their compassion 🥚

Remember when some of us said the Democratic leadership would take all the wrong lessons from the blue tsunami and squander all the goodwill?

If an adoptee finding their family hurts their adoptive family imagine how much hurt the adoptee had growing up in such a manipulative controlling family. #adoptionawareness

i think it's time to note that ICE did not pioneer child taking; that it's not a new atrocity being visited upon the vulnerable; that "child welfare" agencies routinely use it to police families in crisis; that good progressive people enter the "foster-to-adopt pipeline" to benefit from it. 🥚

Defense begins, “This case, ladies and gentlemen, is about a sandwich. A sandwich that according to Agent Lairmore somehow both exploded on his chest in a spray of mustard and onions but also landed intact on the ground still in its Subway wrapper.”

They aren't afraid of Mamdani, they are worried about what he would unleash among VOTERS. That those voters would say: "actually, we're not buying this centrist bullshit you've been shoveling for decades, we want something else." That's what's being litigated in these Dem elites are worried essays.

Teen Vogue took young people seriously. It's impossible to overstate how important, how rare, and how profoundly needed that is.

🥚 In yesterday's tomfoolery (buying infants&children as a triumph over homophobia) I was told, "Sorry your adoption was horrendous". Interestingly, my adoption had best possible outcomes given an infant w/ unresolved trauma/motherloss, was raised by adoptive mother w/ unresolved infertility trauma.

Just got blocked for saying adoption is human trafficking. Troubling when the oppressed wish to emulate their oppressors in the exploitation of infants and children instead of standing up for human rights. 🥚

PSA unplug hotel alarm clocks on arrival! No one wants to be awakened earlier than necessary. Ever.
Hotel alarm clock went off at 230am. I did not set that.
There's no longer any good reason for hotel rooms to have alarm clocks.
Everyone has a phone and if you dont you can get a wake up call from the front desk.

I would encourage you to frame this differently.
Poverty is a systemic issue, not a personal failure.
What is it when we take children from people who suffer from systemic oppression and poverty? When society first creates the problem and then punishes people for not being able to overcome it?
