i need you to hold some fucking solidarity and intersectionality in your heart because by god you are not surviving this hellscape otherwise. "none of us are free until all of us free" means you too asshole, so build coalitions with other marginalized people now

Fun fact: recording police in the public performance of their duties is protected conduct under the First Amendment in North Carolina!

The 4th Circuit even said so (www.ca4.uscourts.gov/opinions/211...)

I have 3 prescriptions that were sent in yesterday, and Walgreens has changed their app so it no longer tells you when they will be ready. I spent over TWO HOURS on hold today trying to get estimated readiness info.

Every time I fix eggs for breakfast, I think about the description of Holtzman shields (force fields) in Dune and wonder if Herbert came up with them after struggling to get pieces of shell out of a bowl of cracked eggs.

Listening to this, thinking about how many people don't know about jury nullification - aka voting your conscience - when you're on a jury and don't agree with the letter of the law. If someone ever tells you that you "must" return a verdict, send them this: www.aclu.org/news/free-sp...

Politicians are nothing more than admin staff. We all throw in for taxes to group fund good things for our community. The purpose of gov is to do the will of the people, making sure everyone has equal access to all of the benefits.
"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.
