🚨 EMERGENCY. Don’t scroll. Odai is a real child in constant pain. Doctors said his surgery cannot wait. Every day without it risks his chance to walk again. We still don’t have the funds and time is running out fast
Please don’t leave him alone. Even $10 or a share can save him

These words are designed to slide off of our brains and be forgotten.
Say it plainly: No murdering children overseas. No locking up children in concentration camps here. No pedophiles in government or any positions of authority. No Republican freaks inspecting children's genitals.
Black trans women are the most marginalized in our community — so yeah, watching one be sidelined or erased in the narrative feels painfully familiar.
If people actually care about protecting Black trans women instead of just erasing us, there are ALWAYS real ways to help. 🥺⬇️ x
A handwritten letter from a child detained at Dilley center. It features a drawing of a house and a crying person’s head. Translated text reads: "We are all stuck in rooms that can hold 12 people they won’t let us go out to the playgrounds and park and it’s very boring to do every day God touch the hearts of those at ICE let us out We are not criminals I want to go home."
While detained at the Dilley detention center, 13-year-old Gerson Lopéz Garcia wrote: “We are all stuck in rooms that can hold 12 people … let us out we are not criminals I want to go home.”

tl;dr: more people should watch this gentleman's speech and think seriously about what he is saying

I just sent $20 to Ian to help this family. I'd like you to chip in a few bucks if you can too.

Slow-mo glitter rainbow dick whistle waterfall.

Did the troops decide to do Gulf War 3? NO. So stop with the bullshit "I support the troops". The troops have no power.

Oh, they are weaker than they've ever been and I think even these feckless Dems will smell blood in the water and strike, finally.
The regime will try every dirty trick but they still don't have the juice unless Dems step on pretty much every rake (admittedly not outside the realm of possibility)

Probably my best-known book is THE GUNS OF THE SOUTH. Yeah, the one with Robert E. Lee holding an AK-47. The Confederacy wins its independence. And, like the dog that caught the car, it has to work out what the devil to do next.

like this is already such a shitshow and so many more people are going to die and not a single person in the entire administration is smart enough to go "okay the best time to pull out of this was before we started but the second best time is right the fuck now"

the MORAL problems of having a government run by teenage bullies are obvious
the central LOGISTICAL problem is that if they jump you and you don't fold immediately, they short-circuit. that was the one move they had. there's never a strategy to win, but they're also too arrogant to just retreat

Iran also knows that the quickest way to end this war is to hurt Saudi Arabia and the UAE, the countries who pushed the US with Israel to attack.
Just a horrible situation for civilians on either side of the Persian Gulf none of whom have consented to any of this.
Pray for a quick ceasefire. 3/3
The decision for the US to let Israel attack and then join the attack from the Middle East means that the Muslim rulers of Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar etc are in a difficult place.
They must respond because their own civilians are terrorized and dying.
But joining will mean standing with Israel. 1/n

I. Can’t. Even. Go. There.
