How about we shut down the government for this very popular and specific goal and then, hear me out, we hold out for like a month and a half and then, ok this part is important, after a watershed election where we ran the table, ONLY THEN, fold and don't get the one thing we said we wanted.

i don't think they needed to give me another reason to not go to their stores but for whatever reason they did
"Store employees are now required to smile if they are within 10 feet of a shopper.

They also must make eye contact with and wave to or greet the customer.

If they’re within four feet, the employee should ask how the customer’s day is going or if they need help."

🙄 Won't stop the boycott, y'all.

As the holiday season fast approaches, Target is urging its employees to add a little more “jolly” to their work routine.

When idiot Ron Schneider was born in 1963, the infant mortality rate was 29/1,000. It is now close to 5/1,000. So, no, children were NOT healthier when he was a kid. And he was, clearly, dropped on his head.

"I've known I've had a nazi tattoo for years. I've cutely referred to it by name to my friends. I show it off when I get drunk and shirtless at parties... but I'll lie and act innocent if it becomes a liability" is disqualifying even beyond the *massive* grace I gave him here.
I've known too many dumb young marines to care that Platner was a dumb young marine, saw a context-free tottenkopf tattoo parlor flash, and got the 'sick skull tat, bro' in Croatia.

I care that upon finding out as an adult that he had a nazi tattoo he didn't immediately, horrified, book a removal.

“In response to protests claiming the president is acting like a king, the president posted a fake AI video of him as King Trump flying a jet and dumping diarrhea on Americans,” is a real thing that happened and is so stupid it’s making blood shoot vigorously from the corners of my eyes

Fenway Health cutting off access to medical treatment for trans youth is shameful and unnecessary. There is no need for this.

Cis folks, please use these numbers below to tell Fenway and the AG what you think about abandoning trans youth.
Let them know what you think.

Gov. Healey: 617-725-4005
AG Campbell: 617-727-2200
Fenway: 617-267-0900

cis Bostonians specifically, we need you to step up. I'm already seeing my local trans circles raise hell about this, but we need you, too. I wrote a phone script. Use it and spread it:

In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists when unprovoked — what would we call it?

If federal agents marched down streets demanding papers — what would we say?

Authoritarianism — let’s not pretend it’s something else when it happens in our American cities.

If any other president in all of history said the military should use American cities as a training ground he would be removed from office that same day. The hardest thing to tolerate in all this is how relatively silent elected democrats are. It’s ridiculous.

TL;DR, the current CR doesn't have any risks to gender-affirming care. But the upcoming spending fight will and it's important to differentiate between the two, especially when it's information for a vulnerable population. Our job should be to seek truth and report it and minimize harm.

It’s not a crime to be in this country as an undocumented person. It’s a civil violation.

But you know what is a crime? Taking a bribe from undercover agents in exchange for the promise of government contracts WHEN YOU’RE THE FCKING BORDER CZAR.
