Sad to see Kid Wreck still onstage

Breaking the Silencing Machine In many ways this society has moved toward a democracy of voices, as people who for their race or gender were shut out of systems of power and possibility – out of jury duty, professions, institutions...

Purple sticker with pink text that reads "I don't know how to explain that you should care about other people."

So *more* DEI would mean MORE competent, compassionate, & intelligent people in jobs, and LESS greedy, over-privileged, incompetent, rich white criminals, sex offenders, child rapists, and traffickers in those jobs. I want the whole system of white privilege to FAIL. It's criminals all the way down.

The world is falling apart but I still didn't drink. Clean and sober since 2/3/96

I can't believe this is happening. I mean I do, the wheels have been in motion for decades, and yet I never imagined us winding up here. I remember as a kid being shocked that an actor was elected president. I had no idea how much worse it could get ...

This is what dignity looks like in practice: housing as a human right, healthcare as a public good and justice that actually repairs harm. This is how we meet our housing crisis—by building a city that leaves no one behind.

Yes! Yes.

Yep samesies

Jeez I go so far out of my way to avoid it ... which they've made extremely difficult

DROPS ARE LIVE!

I need me a murloc!! <3 <3

This is, in my opinion, not only the correct moral/ethical/legal position but also the correct political framing. Everyone can see the agency is out of control; everyone can see that it is constantly violating human rights. "Scrap it and start over" is the moderate position.

Please keep up the good fight!! God knows we need more reps like you

Repost from Twin Cities Geeks saying "New boycott just dropped!" With pic of smug balding white man in suit and tie, smirking/smiling, under text reading: "Meet the mastermind behind Trump's annexation of Greenland: Trump's longtime friend and donor, billionaire Ronald S. Lauder. Lauder personally raised the idea of the U.S. purchasing Greenland, which Trump then publicly embraced. He has millions invested in Greenland's 'strategic assets.' Make him famous! Stop buying his products: Estee Lauder, Clinique, MAC Cosmetics, La Mer, Bobbi Brown, Aveda."

I don't buy cosmetics anymore, but if I did I certainly wouldn't buy them from Lauder. Boycott alert:

Who comes up with the Trump administration's heilarious slogans?

Gorgeous!

Self-care = defiance!!

To my shock, I have two friends in their mid-50s who recently had ALL their teeth pulled to make room for full denture implants. Scary shit! I try to take good care of my teeth but lost one last year & got an implant -- just one was a pain in the ass. I hope the rest of my teeth will last me

Several paragraphs of text on page of book under the title "Chapter Forty-Four: Anna": "Violence is what people do when they run out of good ideas. It's attractive because it's simple, it's direct, it's almost always available as an option. When you can't think of a good rebuttal for your opponent's argument, you can always punch them in the face. They'd run out of ideas. And now they were reaching for the simple, direct, always available option of shooting everyone they disagreed with. She hated it." (Abbadon's Gate [vol. 3 of The Expanse series], James S. A. Corey, 2013, p. 444)
