The Modern Loving Family

It’s hard to keep up with the constant evil and stupidity, which is by design. It’s meant to wear us down. Fuck it.

@corybooker.com hello I used to run the Wendy’s Twitter account and I am begging you to let me help you with the dems social media strategy, I will literally do it for free at this point

Thread has them all.

It is simply not enough for universities to say, “Our grants & research offices are looking into how research will be affected by the latest directive.”

University leaders must actively and very publicly make the case for the kind of work many of us do. The silence on this front is deafening.

Over on the other site Elon Musk said that DOGE stopped $50M of condoms from being delivered to Gaza which Trump the repeated several times but it turns out that was the number for all contraceptive support from USAID everywhere on Earth, of which none went to Palestinians.

Is the HPV Vaccine Safe? Yes, Despite What R.F.K. Jr. Has Said. During his second day of confirmation hearings, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. declined to disavow comments he had made disparaging the vaccine as unsafe.

Yes, the HPV vaccine is safe, despite R.F.K. Jr.'s claims. It's remarkably effective at preventing cancer — roughly 97% effective in preventing cervical cancer, and nearly 100% effective in preventing external genital warts.

HUZZAH

Abortion is healthcare.

D&Cs have saved my life twice.

That’s it. That’s the post. I’m here because I had access to life-saving medical care.

Yesterday, two friends came over so we could responsibly break shit (we set up an outdoor rage room) and then I made a roasted potato and assorted veggies board.

We find the joys where we can, loves.

AOC spot on , this is what leadership looks like.

CNN's Jim Acosta signing off:

"I will not give in to the lies. I will not give into the fear. Post it on your social media so people can hear from you too."

I will not give in to the lies. I will not give into the fear. Post it on your social media so people can hear from you too.

Pass it on.

Wow. Caroline Kennedy breaks her silence on RFK Jr in a message to Senators: “We grew up together. It’s no surprise that he keeps birds of prey as pets because Bobby himself is a predator. He enjoyed showing off by putting baby chickens & mice in a blender to feed to his hawks.”

Do you know why a president would do all the most evil and heinous shit via Executive Order? Because his party can't easily make it law. And if they can't make it law, they can't make it last.

Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.

Polyam version of "Haaaaave you met Ted?" called "Are You My Meta?"

TL/DR please don’t join ineffective efforts. Please lean on community building. Community support and mutual aid are things we can all do, even small efforts there can make a big difference.

Mississippi DA backs 'bounty hunter' program to root out illegal migrants House Bill 1484 would form the Mississippi Illegal Alien Certified Bounty Hunter Program.

Hey, y’all - we can be outraged about multiple things at once yes, but I’m tired of my feed being nothing but outrage over target.

Focus. This is a game of smoke and mirrors.

Meanwhile, you should tell every immigrant you know in the state of MS to leave.

This. This is not the path Woman want but it’s the fight we have.

You do NOT have to speak to ICE without a JUDICIAL warrant. If they attempt to enter your home or your workplace, ask for a warrant. Sometimes they will try to use other, non qualifying paperwork. They need a warrant.

Might fuck around and show my friends and homies some extra grace today because everything is awful and we need to be radically loving one another

Part of this begins with deconstructing the nuclear family, which we’re all about 🙂

Ya know, I don’t think I’m who you meant to tag, but here’s my two cents anyway: I think we need to lean really hard on one another and build actual legitimate community with one another for starters. This will give us a network for organizing and support.

Now this is some performance art.

TikTok had real community and it’s a shame that it became a political pawn and blew that community up. But I am hopeful that a similar feeling of connection can be found here.

But please, BlueSky 🙏🏻 we need an edit button. (4/4)

I think time will tell if the era of Facebook and Meta did more harm than good. While I did enjoy some connections I made there, ultimately - I think it did me more harm than anything.

I really can’t say the same of TikTok, which was instrumental in my coming-out-as-polyam journey. (3/4)

Anyway the time has never been better to jump off those sinking ships. It’s lovely not seeing mountains of hate speech every time I pick up my phone. It’s heartening to see the community here, and see some people doing really good work to combat the rising tide of fascism. (2/4)

I deleted our Meta pages and TikTok because of *gestures broadly* and all I’ve gotten was…

More time back.
More genuine connection messaging with my close friends.
More peace of mind knowing they aren’t getting my data.
Money in my pocket because fewer targeted ads. (1/4)

This is the realest.
