The main difference between my parenting style and my parents’ is that when I say I will love my kid unconditionally, I truly mean it. I can think of several situations in which my parents would cut me off. My child can be whatever they truly are, who am I to have conditions?

We must understand the signals and the plans. History teaches us these.

But the government does get to decide what healthcare it covers, whose IDs are valid, which people it’s legal to discriminate against.

This culture war idiocy is so powerful. This is going to be a long fight.

Weird that we have to say this, but the government doesn’t get to decide what gender a person is.

If I could convince my nervous system that I’m not being hunted for sport, right now, that’d be great 😅

Just FYI, administrative warrants (like the ones used by ICE) are not judicial warrants (used by cops, signed by a judge).

You do NOT legally have to open the door for an ICE officer with an administrative warrant *no matter what the ICE officer says.*

Apparently, AOC said in the hearing to ban TikTok, there was little to know evidence presented and all the legislators were confused why the app was uniquely being presented as a threat.

I had polio when i was 9. I was taken from my parents & placed in a Hospital for contageous diseases- the polio ward. I would see them once a week - thru the glass window at the end of my ward. I could not walk. It was terrifying. Kids died. Iron lungs were awful. Dont let RFK Jr ban the vaccine

lmao $50,000 MIGHT cover my husband’s hospital debt and anguish incurred over the last four years but that still wouldn’t be enough to make me snitch on this actual American hero

Shoutout to the Walmart pick up shopper that picked out Elsa and Stitch heads on my toddler’s good2grow juice. The last couple times I got them I had to Google who the heck the characters were 😂

a lot of antivaxxers are grandmas who got grifted into a cult for a thousand small and systemic reasons that could have been avoided if the people who run this country prioritized education and healthcare. “they’re dumb and deserve to die” misses the point and is also vaguely eugenicsy, so
