If it’s elective, then I think that’s acceptable. As soon as it’s mandatory, I take issue

Can’t afford to pay their teachers properly or fund classroom supplies, but they will find that money to buy those bibles and pay for lawyers

Conservatives do not want to go back to "family values." Conservative men want to go back to a time when they could get away with doing anything they wanted without recourse. They just call it "family values" and the media sells it.

I am so tired of being told to understand how other people’s mindsets work based on how they interpret something. I watched videos of some of the cultists in NYC and they honestly appear like they live in a different reality. Facts mean nothing to them. It’s like talking to a brick wall.

Anyway the most recent former President of the United States has been found guilty of felonies and now there’s a substantial chance people are going to die because his followers are freaks and the so-called “mainstream” GOP will just shrug and blame woke or something.

Two sitting justices of the Supreme Court are insurrectionists—or, most generously, married to them. Our system can do nothing about them because the people running it have insisted upon their own powerlessness. We’re not operating under a constitution; we’re trapped in a suicide pact.

One of the most important things you can do as an ally and as fighter of fascism is stop laughing at evangelical Christians and realize they mean every single word they say. They’re not funny, they’re absolutely terrifying. Take them extremely seriously and act accordingly.

Hello John, it's Tim, I hope this email finds John well. Tim was wondering if John had sent in that report John and Tim had finished yesterday or if Tim should do it.

Do they do articles like "EXCLUSIVE: Rob Reiner spurns Trump, Backs Biden in 2024" the same way there's a parade of articles about hedge fund guys and VCs who backed Trump 4 years ago backing him again like it's somehow newsworthy?

I hope people understand that what we are seeing is the systematic destruction of the civil war amendments by the Supreme Court, which are what made America and actual democracy and upon which all minority rights in the United States rely

TikTok flagged a dm that I sent to my boyfriend for violating community guidelines. It wasn’t even that scandalous. 😬

Yeah, it’s not “prying into someone’s politics” when they are literally flying flags about their politics. The Alitos have clearly been hoping someone will ask them about their very cool beliefs and, honestly, it feels rude not to ask them now.

I sometimes write a blog about having stage 4 cancer. I’ve been added to some list where I get spam emails from pharmacy companies and weird products, asking me to write a review. It’s so damn annoying.

My alt account on X got permanently suspended for telling someone who tweeted the n word to a black woman that all of us should be punching white nationalists. I regret nothing. That app is nothing but racists and Nazis.

The war in Gaza is globally very unpopular and in the US increasingly unpopular. Yet so many cannot understand student protests without resorting to the indoctrination arguments that the far right have made about higher ed, which were made to discredit higher ed while denying the students agency.
