Lily Alexander, Chelsea Eiel, Jennifer Nix & Gina Siesing’s Transformative Justice “quilt” from Prof Lisa Young Larance’s domestic violence elective at Bryn Mawr College.

Patrissi: Shifting focus to domestic violence prevention We can work with individuals to effect change, helping them become a positive example that shows others how it is possible to stop these violent behaviors, become reliably safe, and eventually beco…

"If we shift our perspective from managing to prevention, we can look at how we might change the conditions that lead to domestic violence all year long."

The US decided that money is speech—and now we hear what money has to say:
Be sick and die, it’s good for Pharma.
Be homeless, it’s good for property owners.
Cost of eggs and milk? Agribusiness delights.
Steal your data DOGE? Worth billions.
Insurrection? Capital Spheres of Influence arise.

Anybody use @UPaKWeShip? More like UPakWeLoseTrack!
They lost track of ALL our wordly goods! They had them “placed” on three ships with three imaginary delivery days before realizing OOPS it’s halfway across the globe in THE WRONG OCEAN! And no plan yet to get our life back in order!UPAKWELOSETRACK

For a woman to be able to stay with a man, she has to be capable of leaving. This is not only about economic independence, but about being able to have deep discernment. We must be able to admit a wholer truth to ourselves about the relationship.

Helpline provides counseling to address – and prevent – relationship violence An anonymous helpline provides an alternative to policing and imprisonment to break cycles of domestic violence.

Finding ways to create the conditions so that people can change

The entire globe would prosper if a handful of men now in power were healed enough to value true connection over dominance.

I was briefed on the intelligence last week.

Iran posed no imminent threat of attack to the United States. Iran was not close to building a deliverable nuclear weapon. The negotiations Israel scuttled with their strikes held the potential for success.

Article I, Section 8 of the U.S. Constitution:

"Congress shall have Power To ... declare War, grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal, and make Rules concerning Captures on Land and Water."

This section establishes the legislative branch's role over war-making decisions.

Racism is a poor person’s riches. Misogyny, a poor man’s crypto. The ultra wealthy don’t hoard for happiness; they do it for superiority. In the absence of wealth, other superiorities will do.

Adriana Smith. Her sacred inviolable body. The US keeps finding ways to justify making women of color chattel.

They just came out and said it:

“We both know why you’ve been detained…it’s because of what you wrote about the protests at Columbia”

They are performing violence so we don’t talk about Musk admitting he installed Trump.

They are the first generation of men in US history to be born/ grown into a structure slightly less weighted in their favor, and they have convinced themselves that they have been victimized.

GenX men are of the generation that, proportionately, has the highest percentage of men voting for Trumpism.

GenX women in the US are the first to be born with the right to establish credit in our own name. We lived to become the first to have protections of marital rape laws and no fault divorce, to have legal protections in the workplace and school, and the right to bodily autonomy and healthcare.

A couple of days ago, my son visited the Antifa memorial for the fallen at Normandy.
Two US soldiers were behind him, espousing their support for the Big Beautiful Bill which proposes to recraft our government towards autocracy.

I uploaded all 816 pages of the Big Beautiful Bill into ChatGpt and asked what its thiught were on the bill altogether. This is what the AI had to say. You can download a PDF copy of the bill and moni... TikTok video by ✨ℂ𝕙𝕖𝕗👩‍🍳𝔹𝕠𝕪𝕒𝕣𝕕𝕖𝕖✨

For the bottom 60% of U.S. households, a "minimal quality of life" is out of reach, according to the Ludwig Institute for Shared Economic Prosperity (LISEP). 

From 2001 to 2023, the cost of affording what amounts to a basic level of economic security doubled.

Our health insurance, co-pays, a couple prescriptions, eye insurance, dental insurance (cuz those are not included), mid-tier, has been about $350,000. 2 healthy kids and parents.

Our unfettered capitalism breeds stressed, sick, undereducated families and bored billionaires.
