Hoping to have normal conversations with decent people. I love a good RESPECTFUL debate on many different topics & believe listening to different opinions is a good thing. Proud, responsible mom of trans son and would love the opportunity to share actual information with anyone interested in facts.

Ok people, let's slip a little common sense into the everlasting 'bathroom battle.' Are we really going to allow our elected officials to waste time attempting to get legislation through the House, Senate and Presidency that denies people the right to pee in a convenient location? 1/4

Woke up this morning thinking we should start a 'this is not normal list' so we can at least stop ourselves from moving our lines in the sand so far back that we paint OURSELVES into a corner. Turns out, that's #15 on this list. I'll go first. /1
NEW: The great Trump-Musk crackdown is coming. And it will hit hard & fast. Journalists will be first. But everyone else is next.

This is how we can make a difference. With all the commentary about Matt Gaetz, we are again failing to hit the target on messaging. Using 'exploited minor', 'sex worker', etc. REALLY misses the target on the disgusting truth.
Matt Gaetz paid to have sex with a child. Full Stop. Say it that way.

I took a week away from the news, podcasts and toxic twitter to REALLY focus on the important things...my health, family, pets. It gave me time to re-center myself on my solid foundation of moral decency and belief that 90% of people are good - or at least worth an effort to understand.
