Lefty Twitter refugee who struggles daily to reconcile my feminism with my passion for Vogue. Also, bookstores make me pleasantly melancholy. So many books I'll never read.
On this day Aug 4, 1944: Anne Frank was arrested after 2 years in hiding.
Not by monsters in uniforms but by neighbors.
Today, governors threaten political enemies with removal.
ICE raids target families.
LGBTQ+ people are banned from bookshelves.
Never again means nothing if you stay silent.
This is what is happening right now.

I'm shocked that Republicans would rather shut down Congress than stand up to a dead pedophile.
So why not release the files?

Thanks for coming to my Pred Talk.
I wonder where we would be now if people had believed Anita Hill, or Christine Blasey Ford, or so many girls and women who have been victimized by rich and powerful men.
I know this feels rhetorical, but why donβt we listen to the women?
UPDATED: The woman at the center of my reporting speaks out. For the first time, she shares what it felt like to be denied prenatal care simply for being unmarried.

If women submitting to men was a natural way of being, they would not have needed laws, religion & violence to get them to do it.

By 2030, 1 in 4 women in developed countries will remain childfree.
Up to 45% will be single by choice.
Society will frame this as a crisis.
Governments will panic over birth rates.
This is about choice thoughβ¦
It's about women walking away from the roles that kept men comfortable and powerful.
"We need something desperately so I'm going to make it more expensive and harder to get on purpose" is quite an eye-popping statement.

Masked soldiers are disappearing people off our city streets and itβs not some post-apocalyptic, dystopian novel.
Itβs actual America, 2025.
Republicans in Congress authorized Trump to make Americans pay 50% more for anything they buy from Brazil because they are prosecuting his friend. None of this is possible without their acquiescence, and not one has spoken out against them so they own every bit of every tariff.

Midterms are reset points; we can't lose in 2026.
If you consider the existence of trans people in this country more threatening than the existence of concentration camps in this country, then your understanding of both history and humanity is fundamentally flawed.
