Okay this is a question for the 2A folks who say they concealed carry specifically so they can protect themselves and others: You’re walking down the street when you come across 5 guys in street clothes and masks trying to shove a woman into a van. The woman’s skin is brown. What do you do?

Happy bee!

Been saying that for years!

If you have pets and are avoiding feeding them raw food because of the risk of bird flu (which you should be), you need to know that FREEZE-DRIED IS STILL RAW! All the single ingredient freeze-dried treats or the food topper things aren’t processed with enough heat to kill the bird flu.

That’s such an “awkward gesture.”

alright you wanna know how to support trans people?

hire them. It's REALLY hard already for visibly trans people to get jobs, even before this shit.

Support places that have trans people working front of house, and make sure owners know that's part of why you're there.

So here’s the thing. If it were an accident or any other benign explanation, you’d know after it happened the first time. You feel yourself doing that and go “oh shit.” It would be once. You wouldn’t do it again.

Years ago, I worked on one of ChildsplayAZ’s productions of Junie B Jones. In it, at one point, Junie screams at the top of her lungs “I AM HAVING ANXIETY!” Anyway, try it. It sort of helps.
