Now that we’ve seen the full Senate text, we can say for certain: either the House or the Senate version would be the largest transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich in a single law in history.

Each have the largest Medicaid and largest SNAP cuts ever. And each give huge tax cuts to the rich.

No, you’re not crazy.

They are deporting brown people and importing white people.

This is where your Harry Potter money goes
jk rowling funded a case going before the supreme court that argues it should be legal to discriminate against and persecute trans ppl.

yet still we have to listen to ‘centrists’ claiming she isn’t bigoted she just has ‘a difference of opinion’.

no trans ppl have a voice in these proceedings.

Nic and I went to a timeshare pitch for a free weekend away and part of the dude’s pitch included telling us that research shows that we are going to get a divorce if we don’t go on a honeymoon immediately after the wedding.

There are a million things to be outraged about right now (this is by design). My number one is, trans people don’t have the numbers to defend themselves from all the ways these people are trying to strip them of their humanity. Feels like a “first they came for (x) and I did not speak out” moment

1. Breaking News: Donald Trump has signed an executive order targeting trans youth and teachers in schools who teach for them.

It goes after "social transition" and threatens arrests.

I will go through line by line, as I have the last 3 nights.

Cis allies need to be stepping the fuck up about this. Show that you actually care about the future of trans people in America. Call your senators and let them know that this is not an issue that they can capitulate on, for the very least because of the dangerous legal precedent it sets.
1. A federal transgender sports ban may be heard as early as Tuesday in the House.

Sources tell EITM that the vote on a Senate filibuster is expected to be "close," with some Dems capitulating.

The ban could apply to dancing, darts, and even chess.

The national ban on transgender sports is expected to come down to the wire in the Senate, and could lead to crackdowns on transgender people nationwide.

I think “He’s Just Not That into You” would be a fun movie to watch for date night but Nic won’t stop analyzing the shots for Baltimore landmarks.

Christmas is best enjoyed while watching your dad passive aggressively gift tools to his son-in-laws. Game recognizes game.

I really feel like I mastered the passive aggressive Christmas present this year. Tis the season to be a tad bit petty. 💁‍♀️

I’m trying so hard to expand my perspective in light of the 2024 election by reading books like “Of Boys and Men” but how do I get past the fact that the thesis is basically just “now that feminism prevents mediocre men from owning women as property, boys are sad”…?!?

We talk a lot (as we should) about how women’s bodies aren’t researched enough so our healthcare outcomes suffer. But I don’t think we talk about the medical mystery that is gingers. I’m out here learning novocaine is suppose to FULLY numb you, not just take the edge off, at 30 y/o.

Unlocked a new level of FOMO today when my best friend and all-time favorite person, who just happens to also be my fiancé, went wedding dress shopping with her friends and fam and I wasn’t allowed to go.

One of my few single friends is explaining to me how dating apps and their algorithms work and now I’m convinced that they are incel factories and the reason we lost the election.
