Stupid job for not letting me use sick leave for my dog's vet appointments because according to HR dogs aren't family 😑

Do you ever just need a good thunderstorm? Like the energy is all heavy and stagnant, but you know the second the clouds roll in and you see that first flash of lightning and feel the thunder quake through your body the energy will suddenly shift to something powerfully magical.

Yesterday we posted about the Trump administration shutting down the LGBTQ+ youth crisis line, the “press 3” option on 988 is officially gone. The Trevor Project is stepping up to help fill the gap, and they could really use some support right now. If you’re able, please consider donating! 🏳️‍🌈 💛

I think I might start posting my poetry here rather than trying to do hottakes. Maybe some tarot pulls, too. I'm tired of hottakes and feeling forced to have/express an opinion on everything. I wanna be creative, dammit!

Senator Chris Van Hollen is traveling to El Salvador to advocate for the release of Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia—a Maryland resident and Salvadoran immigrant who was wrongfully deported by the Trump administration. Thank you, Senator. Please bring him home.

I now understand why my parents always seemed frazzled. If it wasn't stress about the economy, it was work. If it wasn't stress about work or the economy, bills were piling up. If it wasn't monetary or job related stress, the house was a mess. It never ends, & when you fix one thing another breaks.

Remember how we handled that guy who worked for the Pentagon who leaked stuff on discord? That's all I'm thinking about with the recent security leak.

The CR passed in the House will provide a blank check for Trump and Musk to continue their savage war against working families, the elderly, children, the sick and the poor in order to lay the groundwork for massive tax breaks for billionaires.

This is a bill I cannot support.

🚨 OPPOSE SB164 🚨 This bill lets public schools employ chaplains instead of qualified mental health professionals — undermining students’ rights & safety. Schools should support all students and uphold their right to religious freedom.

📢 Tell #arleg: VOTE NO on SB164! #arpx

Today’s show was my last at CNN. My closing message: It’s never a good time to bow down to a tyrant… don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to fear. Hold on to the truth… and hope.

The more I see the more I wonder how hateful some people are inside to have willingly voted for this.

The USAF removed Tuskegee Airmen & Women Airforce Service Pilots of WWII from basic training curriculum. For 30 years I promised these women I would not let them ever be forgotten again. We worked for decades to have them remembered. The Airmen too. Knowledge is power. 🗃️ www.msn.com/en-us/societ...

It is *very* important to understand that Jews were never the only target of the 1930s Nazis and they are not the only targets of today’s Nazis. A Nazi salute is not only antisemitic. It is also racist, ableist, and queerphobic.

Attn: Target we are done!!!

Black folks, do not spend a dime here. Do not spend money where you will not be hired—or where they will not carry your products.

Target is spitting in your face!

When you see absolute absurdity in the headlines, ask yourself: what are they trying to distract us from?

Y'all know tons of people made it through college writing tons of papers without AI and did just fine. There's this tiny, little feature in Microsoft Word called Spell/Grammar check, and you can have Word read the paper aloud to you in case that misses something.

Now, I'm sad there's no Costco near me. They were going to build one about an hour away but the deal fell through. I'm stuck living in the land of a thousand Walmarts with an occasional Target.
NOW: More than 98% of #Costco shareholders have just rejected an anti-DEI measure

The attempt to force Costco to audit their #DEI work was by an anti-inclusion lobby group:

"The proponent's broader agenda is not reducing risk for the Company but abolition of diversity initiatives." - Costco Board

This app is new to me, and I'm trying to integrate different parts of myself that haven't interacted with each other in an online space before, so we'll see how it goes.
