Scheduling a therapy session when I need help is so much harder when I also have to plan childcare in order to take care of myself. It just adds a whole nother level of "I don't want to do this" on top of pushing myself to spill personal shit to a stranger

This is something the Nazis used to do to Jewish children in the camps. It happened to a man I knew when he was a child in Auschwitz. The camp guards thought it was funny as hell.
On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast.

The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me.

But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.

Folks, as of right now the stunningly talented artist Frazier Irving is homeless and needs your help. He hasn’t got a fundraising page because he doesn’t want charity but he is selling pages. Please give his shop a look and buy something that appeals if you can.

Glad to see the '90s and early 2000s are still alive inside of the Exchange. Same store layout, same products, only massively different prices

I want EVERY person who created and enabled a system which led to children in concentration camps to be guillotined! ALL OF THEM. That’s not even a political position, it’s a moral one!

But what if they promise you nothing in return? What then?
Senate Democrats will not provide the votes to proceed to the appropriations bill if the DHS funding bill is included.

“I’m proposing a bill that redirects $75 billion from the people who harass and kill minorities to the people who harass and kill minorities”
Public safety means stopping violent crime — not weaponizing ICE against our communities.

That’s why I'm proposing a bill that redirects nearly $75 billion from ICE to local law enforcement.

The evergreen quote of Omar El-Akkad:
How empty does your message have to be for a deranged right wing to even have a chance of winning? ...Faced off against a nihilistic, endlessly cruel manifestation of conservatism, and somehow managed to make it close.
we are still years out from the Democratic primary, and I think it is genuinely deranged that there’s people out there who believe there’s no other choice and thus we must rally around the flag of, all people, Gavin Fucking Newsom to save the republic
