The people of Minnesota are an inspiration. They’re out in the freezing cold protesting ICE brutality and protecting their communities. They're delivering groceries to their vulnerable neighbors and forming human chains around schools during pickups.

We can’t leave them to do this work alone.

Paywalled journalism is the worst thing in the world. I should be allowed to read a Washington Post article for pete's sake. I'm so mad.

Taylor Swift's Last Album Sparked Bizarre Accusations of Nazism. It Was a Coordinated Attack

Data analysis of social media posts painting Taylor Swift as a Trump supporter or white supremacist revealed a network of inauthentic accounts.

The Senate “deal” reached yesterday isn’t a win. It’s a loss for millions of Americans who spent 40 days in limbo and now face higher health care costs and less support.

We deserve a deal that helps us, not leaves us behind.

Websites that are not mobile compatible are bad, but websites that are mobile-first are worse. If I go to your page on a computer and it’s formatted for a phone I’m leaving lol

And that’s my hot take of the day.

Your Zodiac Sign Is 2,000 Years Out of Date Over millennia, our view of the stars has shifted, because of Earth’s wobble. It may be time to rethink your sign.

I'm considered a Capricorn ♑. But based on the real position of the stars, I might be a Sagittarius ♐ instead. Find your astronomical sign here: www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

(There's no way I'm a Sagittarius 😅)

I emailed my senators and accidentally checked the box for my title as "Dr." and now they're emailing me like "Dr. Gandy," and it makes me laugh every time. Oops

Black graphic with a quote in white text: "We should not have to live in a country where the government can seize anyone who looks Latino, speaks Spanish, and appears to work a low wage job. Rather than stand idly by while our constitutional freedoms are lost, I dissent." In red text, the quote is attributed to Justice Sonia Sotomayor, Dissenting in Noem v. Perdomo

Yesterday's Supreme Court decision endangers our communities and subjects people to immigration stops simply because of the color of their skin, occupation, or the language they speak.

This fight isn't over. Our right to live free from racial profiling is fundamental.

Simpson meme of the bus driver saying “Don’t make me tap the sign.” Followed by a second panel of a finger tapping a sign that reads: “The South is full of good people that are on your side that are held back by gerrymandering, disenfranchisement and regressive policies.”

It’s 2025!!! We shouldn’t be here debating if people deserve the right to exist! ALL HUMANS DESERVE RIGHTS!!

We should be making amazing scientific discoveries and beautiful art and advancing technology to help us even more, but instead we’re being sent back to the dark ages!!

IT’S 2025!!!

Respectfully if you are a website that lists all of your tops as different when it's just color changes, please stop. I don't need a listing for every color. It makes me think you have more options than you do!!
