The Democratic platform now includes: 1a, 2a, 4a, reproductive rights, states’ rights, voter rights, access to healthcare, international diplomacy, feeding children, I’m sure I’m missing a few but, hey, if you prefer open racism, trade wars, murder and CSA, I hear the Republicans got a lot going on

We need to talk about the rise of "smol bean fascism" where you have all the guns and the immunity but the really scary people are the ones with whistles and phone cameras and they're giving you generational trauma and ptsd by filming you killing people for no reason

I said this last time but their real position is “if you disagree with us we can kill you.”

If you’re defending kidnapping a five year old, you’re losing

I was trying to relocate all through the latter half of 2025 and was totally thwarted. If 2026’s solar eclipse + North Node ingress + major planetary sextiles & trines to Pluto ALL in my 4th House don’t = a major assist… idk what will 😅 LFG! ✨
