I have two interviews this summer for my DREAM position in education for the upcoming school year. Was SO excited, until I realized my title is on the chopping block in the $6.8 billion cut SCOTUS approved.

I hate it here.

Last night, the Department of Health and Human Services sent termination letters to employees who were originally fired in April but temporarily reinstated due to a lower court ruling. The Supreme Court cleared the way last week for those firings to proceed.

Stop travelling to America.

It’s not safe & your tourist dollars shouldn’t support fascism

If you’re American, stop going to Florida

They built a concentration camp in 8 days

They’ve opted to kidnap and detain thousands instead of housing the homeless, feeding the hungry & providing healthcare

We’re calling for a Florida boycott over the inhumane “Alligator Alcatraz” detention site. Cancel your family vacation and choose a different destination this summer.

To the “I voted for this” crowd:

You voted for the guy who gutted the National Weather Service. Now we’ve got dead families and missing kids in Texas, because storm warnings didn’t go out in time. And he gutted FEMA so they can’t properly respond to disasters.

That’s what you voted for?

I knew we were cooked as a society when everyone just sorta decided they were sick of dealing with Covid and everyone just decided to pretend like it wasn't a thing anymore.

My mom finally watched the Hunger Games with me (she’s refused to watch in the past) and we’re gearing up for Catching Fire today. Any advice for mom?
The amount of times this has happened to me is insane. They always say “they must’ve accidentally double scanned it” 🙄
“you’re only ancient if you were born in the 1900’s” — kiddo at work today

Didn’t think I’d feel geriatric at the ripe age of 26 but thanks bud

If you need a mask to enforce the law, you don’t deserve a badge.
Federal agents are snatching people off the streets—faces covered, names hidden.
This isn’t safety. It’s secrecy.
It’s not America.

AOC: Being taken is wrong, it is illegal, it is a violation of his First Amendment rights, it is an affront to every American, and we will not allow—and will continue to resist—the politicization and the continued political persecution that ICE is engaged in.

Tucker Carlson and Marjorie Taylor Greene have both now said that Fox News is propaganda.

The right wing is tearing itself apart and I’m loving every minute of it.

No fr I cried driving by Otsego yesterday 😭 my chronically ill ass can’t protest this week, but seeing everyone out there gave me some hope

just watched this netflix documentary on the oklahoma city bombing and once again i'm struck by how so many of the popular media takes on this event just avoid entirely the connection to organized white supremacism
