I genuinely don't see a path to traditional retirement. Its hurts so much knowing nothing you do is *ever* enough. We are asking too much of our teachers. It hurts.

Work today hurt more than I previously thought possible, and coming home and being normal feels impossible. Today, I wish I did almost anything else. Not because I don't love it, because I truly do. But because I don't want to ever have another day like this, and it's heavy knowing I probably will.

It's September 1st. The train with the chocolate frogs isn't real, but trans folks are. 💙🩷🤍

This is your reminder that 36% of the entire queer and trans population of the country lives in the South. That's more, by a significant margin, than any other region of the u.s.

Worth remembering next time anyone feels the need to abandon or write us off.

Now THERE'S the energy I'm bringing to the 4th

Only the young and the innocent pay
The price for the reckless games that we play
Only a fool would keep standing in place
Hoping that somewhere somehow things will change

The federal government is sowing chaos so they can have an excuse to escalate.

That is not the way any civilized country behaves.

I know logically, everyone & their bestie has tattoos these days. It's so common. But y'all, I said I could NEVER do it, I struggle with anxiety & intrusive thoughts , & getting my first this week at 40 really felt like healing. I'm so proud of myself. 🥰

Nobody needed yet another reason to love Pedro Pascal today, but I love that he gave us one, anyway . 🩵🩷🤍 On a related note, "heinous" is an underrated word that should be used much more often when necessary.

Feeling the weight of *gestures around* today. Casual transphobia @ work was a bonus. 😫 Can we just NOT.

Democratic Leaders Stand Real Still In Hopes No One Notices Them WASHINGTON—With the elected officials trying their hardest not to move a muscle, reports confirmed Monday that top Democratic leaders in Congress were standing real still in hopes that the American people wouldn’t notice them. “Don’t make any sudden movements, or they’ll spot us,” Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) said out of the corner of his mouth, […]

Zuck's site hid a silly comment with a joke with the word 'dummy' in it ,but allowed someone else ( now blocked) to quote a slur in a reply on my post . Not that I wanted to stick around there much longer, but Jesus. The quiet part is out loud everywhere & it's hard to know where to even start.

It is beyond infuriating that we TOLD EVERYONE this would happen. And there it is. There's no way the same isn't true in every state with a similar ban. Horrifying.

I think they wanted to know if he was marched into the Exports Hall like Gemma/ Ms. Casey. They knew ge was fired, but wanted him to verify Innie Irv is gone, not a hostage. 💔

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH

Oof.

Watched #Heartstopper a few weeks ago, & I'm now up to date on the comics. It's been a tough couple months for me mentally, & it sounds dorky to say so , but it has helped me so much. 🥺 The world is such a mess, we need more art that feels good/cathartic. I'm so thankful for these guys, Alice. ❤️

Aw! All the pins! ❤️ also: I really enjoy that you allowed Alex & Henry to be there too, at the end of the shelf. 😆

An excellent summary of how to cope with reality right now.

I Don’t Hate Women Candidates. I Just Thought an Erratic and Vindictive Criminal Was Worthier of My Vote Than a Woman Candidate I admit, it was tricky for me, a white male swing-state voter, to decide who deserved my vote in this election. But in the end, I cast my ballot fo...

"Each had their pros and cons. For example, Trump took away abortion rights, built an $8.4 trillion debt, and incited an insurrection when he lost to Joe Biden. Still, Kamala Harris’s economic plan needed a little more detail. It really was a toss-up."
