Normalize pronouncing DOGE as DOUCHE.

Why are people surprised that white supremacist Elon Musk would rehire another white supremacist at DOGE?

I don’t anticipate much traction, but I’m here for the petty acronym of Elon Musk‘s name. #ELONMUSKact

I was *just* recounting to someone about the time I attended a Super Bowl party in which all of the lesbians wanted to watch the game, and all the gay men kept changing the channel at commercials in order to watch The Valley of the Dolls!

NFL will remove 'End Racism' from the end zones ahead of Super Bowl The announcement comes the same day a White House official told NBC News that President Donald Trump would be attending the game.

I never need a reason to not watch the Super Bowl, but the fact that they are removing the words “End Racism” just to appease the Racist in Chief should be reason enough for anyone who’s not a bigot to boycott the game. #boycottthesuperbowl #superbowlboycott

This semester, I’m collaborating with our CTE and maker space teacher to give students the opportunity to work with materials they normally wouldn’t have in school. Simple paper or card stock projects in my health class can be reinterpreted in wood and acrylic, expanding their possibilities.

Musk is unelected and hasn’t been confirmed by the Senate to any official position. His aides are not government employees.

What the hell is going on here? Oligarchy is a big understatement at this point.

Thank you for the web archive link! I teach comprehensive sex education in middle school, and when we discuss STIs, we look at reliable sources of information— which used to include the CDC.

[Bold, italicized black text on a light gray background] Audre Lorde, a Black lesbian poet, scholar, and feminist, described the "mythical norm" as a set of societal expectations that are often used to justify oppression. Lorde believed that people who don't fit the norm are often forced to conform or be ignored, and that this behavior prevents people from creating meaningful change.

[in larger, red font] She said that this norm is often defined as white, thin, male, young, heterosexual, Christian, and financially secure.

[Back to regular font] Trump has made it a point of aggrandizing those who fit these parameters (sometimes specifically praising them for those qualities), and attacking those who don't - and using their differences as insults.

[Closing commentary] Of course, all of these social constructs are merely weapons he uses to make himself and those like him wealthier, at the expense of our nation.

For the longest time, I misremembered the “mythical norm“ as the “invisible norm“ – from the thinking that the American mythology is so embedded that these qualities are automatically assumed unless someone is noticeably “other”.

A photo of a protest scene, focused on a sign that reads "protect trans kids" with light blue, pink, and white stripes to resemble a transgender pride flag.

Transgender youth deserve to live their lives without politicians getting in the way of their freedom and happiness.

Light yellow text on a black background. Spread information not panic. When reporting or boosting potential threats, provide as much information as possible. Remember -> SALUTE! S - Size/Strength “5 to 6 law enforcement officers” A - Actions/Activity “harassing random people on the street” L - Location/Direction “Chicago, West of Millenium Park, on Michigan Ave” U - Uniform/Clothes “Dark blue uniforms that say “Police ICE” on the back” T - Time and Date “12:45p Jan 20” E - Equipment/Weapons “They have helmets, vests, and batons” 

Not a useful message - “URGENT!!! potential ICE raids on the west side.” “Where? When? How many? What are they doing?” USE YOUR JUDGMENT! WE KEEP US SAFE!
