Not for nothing, but does anyone know what Jill Stein does between elections?

Does she power down in a basement somewhere?

It seems like a lot of what's happening would be right in her wheelhouse if she actually gave a shit.

Stop typing hard about why you want Harris to come outside and say a bunch of stuff she already said back when we actually could have prevented it, close the app, go outside, talk to your neighbors, form a community organization, do some actual work.

This semester is kicking my butt AND I have a touch of senioritis. So glad I get to go back this fall for grad school. 🙃

I mean, I am glad, but also I'm tired.

Hey white women, "Keep Ya Head Up" by Tupac is NOT FOR US. That song was very plainly written for Black women and just because there is a line that relates to reproductive freedom does not mean we can appropriate it. Cut that crap out.

Figured this year I'd start journaling for my mental health, but I still haven't started, because I don't really know how or where to do this. 🤦‍♀️

But hey, I have a pretty journal and pretty pens, so there is that.

Husband sees me with my Bible out, typing away at a Facebook post and asks me what I'm doing.

"Shaming other Christians."

God has A LOT to say about caring for immigrants and the poor and warnings about what happens to people who mistreat them. Spoiler alert: It's not good times.

When you already can't sleep, that is definitely time for the husband guy to start snoring like he's getting paid to do so. Got three hours of sleep, and it has been a long-ass day. 😭

1/? One thing that Millennials and Gen Z could benefit from before listening to these "burn it all down", "you have to earn my vote" arsonists is what Black Gen X quickly learned in dealing with a white Boomer population, who loved to brag about their Civil Rights work.

My father-in-law died on Saturday, and I dunno man, maybe be the kind of parent whose funeral your kids don't have to really think long and hard about attending. 😐

I'm so ready for this semester to be over. One more to go.

Well ... except there's grad school after, so still won't be done. 😭

the frenzy over the hunter biden pardon is a good reminder that the press knows how to make something a scandal and has decided that nothing trump does is truly deserving of that treatment

Both Texas and Georgia are destroying evidence of all maternal mortality, blocking proof that women are dying from abortion bans.

This story has a lot more going on than you think. Especially since Republicans are lying about the public cases.

Republicans don't care if women die from abortion bans — but they don't want you to know about it
Women will keep dying, but the GOP is working hard to destroy the evidence
