Like Cathy from the comic, except less competent and together. Like if Gonzo the Great had a human cousin who was just okay. Like if a Roly Poly had Lightening Bug aspirations. she/her

Adding this to my list of things that I don't know how to name but are spiritually similar.
- transform pose
- ghost outfit (if you die, you wear it forever)
- cartoon outfit (the "same" outfit your character wears. possibly the same as above but not necessarily)
-stuck in the past survival plan

SNAP has existed for 60 years. Benefits have gone out every single month over those six decades, including during government shutdowns. Until now.

Make no mistake: The money is available to fund SNAP during this shutdown. Trump is making a choice to withhold it.

Don’t forget this.

Any one of us could be in the next apartment building that ICE raids in the middle of the night.

Any one of us could be on the next boat that Trump bombs on a whim.

Any one of us could be detained for hours despite being a U.S. citizen.

Authoritarianism hurts all of us.

I agree, but also I think people conflate inherency with some kind of requirement? Like, it's more accurate to say "I love her inherently" because love of immediate family tends to be the default (esp for kids), and it takes a lot to rewire that in your head when it's no good for you.

I know I'm technically a day late, but i haven't gone to sleep yet, so it counts.

On the one hand, I got some cool pics today. On the other, I walked into a spider web and can still "feel it" even hours later.

There are two NDs inside of me. One can't stand being in nature cause it's sticky and itchy, and there's bugs and dirt and animal feces and ticks and sunburn, and humidity. The other stops every few feet to take pictures of interesting mushrooms and has a pocket full of rocks to take home.

Yayyyyyyyy!!!! A federal judge has blocked the transfer of any additional immigrant detainees to a detention site in the Florida Everglades and ordered much of the facility to be torn down.

This is endlessly frustrating about current activism. Disabled people are INCREDIBLE organizers and have fought for successful change for generations. And yet these days y’all leave us out of your activism and refuse to create accessible spaces.

But look at what actual solidarity can accomplish:

Was the fact that it was a great movie enough? Not as good as the first I'll admit, but I stand by my opinion!

But in some ways it's the opposite. The AFABs R said to "mature faster" put in charge of younger siblings and the house, whereas AMAB will be given passes for not contributing to the household cause there's no expectation of similar effort and responsibility. In that way AMABs R more infantalized.
