In #Gaza, people are living under bombardment, displacement, and siege.

Now facing relentless summer heat with little to no shelter, clean water, or electricity.

No one should be forced to live like this.

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.

&, sadly, a lot of people still aren't eligible for unpaid leave w/ FMLA. It's absolutely pathetic that we don't yet have universal healthcare & 1st world paid family leave laws/policies.
The United States remains the only high-income country without a national paid family leave policy. Our sole federal policy, the Family and Medical Leave Act, only requires unpaid leave.

Guillermo del Toro on wealth: "a wealthy man is a man who has enough, not a man that needs more. If you have enough to invite someone for a beer? You're rich. If you have a yacht, planes, islands, and you still need more? You're not rich."

Contrast, people! Wear some color, too! Or, just walk around nude, if you really want to. 🤷🏻‍♀️
TBH, for many years, I have refused to wear pants or skirts in that color b/c I've seen too many other women wearing leggings too close to their skin color & it looks like they forgot to clothe the bottom half of their bodies. Tops, too, can have the same problem.
nude is a curious pant color for a contact sport

A leaked CPAC press memo shows the “Third Term Project” hosting a Feb. 20 event titled “The Case for Presidential Tenure Reform.”

They’re openly arguing for a constitutional amendment to let Trump serve up to three terms; citing “unfinished business” and “continuity.”
