There is literally nobody worth defending over something like this.
"What if one of YOUR favorite politicians/celebrities/etc is on the list?" Did you all not notice how quickly we dropped Neil Gaiman when we found out about the things he did? Do you know how beloved that guy used to be and how loathed he is now? I think that right there should answer your question.

if you are food insecure for both the humans and pets in your household there is a tool called Pet Help Finder that can help locate pet food banks nearby and other free or reduced price assistance and supplies for pets.
no one, ABSOLUTELY NO ONE, should have to give up their pet bc of this.

So tomorrow we're going to get a bunch of think pieces about how this election was a referendum on MAGA politics and the Right needs to reach across the aisle and understand and accommodate the values of the Left if they want to win elections, right?
..... Right?

Teen Vogue's political reporting has actually been really good throughout all of this so this is really fucked.
I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.
certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.
