Learned the hard way that we’re the only parents that required an actual plan. We were asking what we thought were normal plan questions like are tickets being bought in advance, the money thing, when to come back, etc. & it was just vibes?? Nobody else seemed concerned. Was very bewildering to us 😭

I am experiencing exploitation and need help traveling away from this area. I need to raise $1900.

I know mutual aid is strained right now, but shares help. Witches- positive energy appreciated 🕯️

Religious leaders here are not mincing words. They have repeatedly used the word "evil."

"Detention and deportation are acts that wound the body of Christ, and deny the dignity of God's people."

I might disappear for a while I’m suffering from severe, crushing depression.
I’am so so so sorry but my family is still lying in the street, in the freezing October cold.
Don’t forget them in your donations they have no one but you. Good bye

the peanut butter one 🤌🏾

soft butter melting on bread or rice, hot cereal, etc is my downfall

the way onions and peppers smell sauteeing

the smell of fresh coffee,
the way cream looks drizzled into coffee,
the foam on top of good quality coffee

What are your food "simple pleasures"?

For me, it's opening a fresh, brand new jar of peanut butter. What about you?

I followed them on the other app we all migrated from! Thanks for sharing links and for pointing me to their account here on BlueSky. I really appreciate it

Didn’t know this but it makes so much sense

It's kind of both??? The greek verb odussomai actually means to hate, so there's one word that predated the name... Odysseus is hated/cursed by Poseidon, which led to all of his trials/journeys, which then gave us the story of Odysseus, which now gave us new meanings associated with his name.

All that (and more) layered over surviving fascism, homeschooling, neurodivergence, depression, and anxiety. And my phone broke and is unusable cause why not add a little extra shittiness to the mix 😩

This year has flown but I’m glad it is on the way out because it has been a rough year. Custody stuff, close family member with cancer, unemployed, and my bestie’s mom died this week (and her family has not been showing up for her, per usual, which pisses me off cause she deserves better)

Vituperations is about to be the Merriam Webster word of the year
joshuajfriedman.com
"The reasonable listener of 'Not Like Us' would conclude that Lamar is rapping hyperbolic vituperations."
“Not Like Us” is replete with profanity, trash-talking, threats of violence, and figurative and hyperbolic language, all of which are indicia of opinion. A reasonable listener would not equate a song that contains lyrics such as, “Ain’t no law, boy, you ball boy, fetch Gatorade or somethin’, since 2009 I had this b**** jumpin’,” with accurate factual reporting. Accordingly, the reasonable listener of “Not Like Us” would conclude that Lamar is rapping hyperbolic vituperations.

dems: we need a big tent

us: so you're going to adopt broadly popular economic policies while embracing our unique cultures?

dems: no we're inviting a serial killer inside but you can vote who they get to kill

This is what being a big tent means. It doesn’t mean that certain rights are negotiable.

this feels like the corollary to we need Mamdani in NYC and an oyster fisherman in Maine and a midwestern dad in Minnesota.

we're supposed to be the party that embraces the fact that we're a diverse and chaotic nation, stop test-polling yourself to generic national oatmeal!!!

It's interesting seeing the different ways resistance has formed in different cities. Los Angeles Organized, Chicago Radicalized, and Portland Got Weird as Fuck. All 3 have had success unifying their respective cities.

I guess my point is there are multiple paths to ungovernability.
