I want an America more in Rob Reiner's vision of it. Where vulnerable groups are protected, and love and kindness matters, and we can laugh in earnestness, not in cruelty.

Grateful for abortion drugs today. Had a post-minor-surgery uterus clot causing lots of bleeding and instead of ANOTHER surgery, I got to take meds also used for abortions and get rid of the clot with some cramping at home. Much safer and easier.

We are discussing security guarantees. And before taking any steps on the battlefield, the military and the civilian population should have a clear understanding of what the security guarantees will be. This is very important.

Never. The USA is not a country friendly to children. Healthcare, annual leave, guns, education. Kids come last in everything. Americans do a great job at saying they love their kids and buying them everything they want, then they vote for politicians who will literally kill their children.

I don't really understand how parenthood in the USA works.
Negligible parental leave. Barely any annual leave.
When are parents expected to actually spend decent time with their children?

tRump posted on truth social assuming that one of his fans murdered Rob Reiner. Pretty much letting you see how he would react if his fans start murdering his enemies. Basically he’ll celebrate and blame the victims. When the truth comes out about Epstein you can count on him blaming the victims too
