Fuck you @thr.com for having Ben Shapiro on your podcast roundtable. You are doing your part to uphold racism, misogyny, and homophobia

Yeah I am not feeling this way today
Having a neurotypical day for some reason. I think of a task I need to do and do it. No spiraling thoughts. No latching onto painful experiences and forcing myself to relive them. No thoughts of suicide… Imagine if this were my norm?

Just got a (very kind) rejection from a reputable literary journal after four days. Can you imagine if this were standard 😭

We can never never never allow these people to escape justice.
This was horrific to watch. Agents entering a daycare, wrestling with and abducting a teacher in front of small screaming children. I just… what the fuck are we doing here.
this morning, ICE went into a Spanish language immersion daycare and took a teacher from the building in front of screaming and crying kids and parents at dropoff and the daycare had to shut down for the day (near Lane Tech, where they were yesterday). Really hoping today's "theme" is not "daycare."

I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.
certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.
