This Gen-X mom is old enough to remember buying her queer kid Pride merch at Target.
They aren't getting me back.

I completely believe that. We were at Armadillo's Pillow last night and the owner basically said the same thing. lol

I keep thinking about how for the past decade? We've watched Target capitulate to MAGAts over Pride merch. *They dont want to be political. Giving into MAGA is EXACTLY that, but also, it aligned with their own ideologies. They could have said "this is commerce, leave us out of it" but they didn't.

Right. My grandmother's 3rd husband was a millionaire and they told me they existed off the... dividends? I remember being a kid and thinking why arent you living lavishly and buying everything you want. they explained how they dont touch the majority of it and collect "the allowance."

It's genuinely wild to me that everyone went "fuck no" to glasses with cameras and wi-fi 15 years ago when it was Google doing it, but aren't losing their minds that Facebook are doing it again now with an added bonus layer of shitty AI applications.

100% Both House and Senate democrats have said openly, on bluesky the Dems have enough power to #AbolishICE but there's no drive by @schumer.senate.gov or @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social

Their ☝🏻 inaction tells us exactly what their intentions are.

star trek the original series fan art of Scotty, played by James Doohan. To the right, his name "Scotty" is spelled out using American Sign Language. Famously, Doohan lost the middle finger on his dominate, right hand. The ASL hand reflects this.

*Abolish.

If any Dem candidate thinks they can run a successful campaign on *defunding, *retraining, or *rehabilitating 🧊 they aint reading the room.

You dont get to keep the personal murder squad just for yourself.

Exactly. Rich people have money because they don't spend it. The hoard it and let it make them more money.

I just bought a copy of that. I went on the hunt to try to find more Discworld trade paperbacks before they disappear. 😄

Both. I was afraid of so many things. I fled a lot of abuse because I was afraid of how I would end up. I made it a point to do better for myself.

Making my wife laugh. We could be alone on the couch or in a crowded room and I will always find a way to make her laugh.

Probably past traumas?

It has gotten easier to put them aside, but i don't know that they're completely gone. I still have moments of severe sadness or anger, but theyre becoming less and less.

My dad had me watching R rated movies when I was 6 & 7 because he thought it would "toughen me up." 🫠

I genuinely cant remember, but i *think* it was either Robocop or the 1988 remake of The Blob.

I generally dont like being bored. I'll find something to do, but when im truly bored with nothing to do I like to sit and be. just let my mind wander.

Congress capitulating to fascists and yielding all the power they seized in the last 40 or 50 years.
