Tried to get my real ID. I had my license, my SS card and my birth certificate.
I was not allowed to get my real ID because my birth name is different than my married name. Now I have to go dig up a marriage certificate. You know who wouldn’t have to do this? A man.
Never change your last name.

Nick Fuentes, the leader of the Groyper incel terrorist group, has been a continual instigator of violence against woman and others. Despite his denials.

I could have saved money going with Taco Bell but I'd rather my locally owned Mexican restaurant get money than a corporate monster and the food is actual... FOOD.

Unfortunately, Bluesky is unavailable in Mississippi right now, due to a new state law that requires age verification for all users.
While intended for child safety, we think this law poses broader challenges & creates significant barriers that limit free speech & harm smaller platforms like ours.

I will be the first to say that joining the #gerrymandering movement makes me very, very queasy.
But I'll also admit that we are way, way, way, WAY past the "high road".
It isn't our morals that are on the line.
It's the future of our nation.

ILLINOIS GOV. J.B. PRITZKER (D): "If they're gonna cheat, then all of us have to take a hard look at what the effect of that cheating is on democracy . And that means we've all got to stand up and do the right thing. So as far as I'm concerned, everything is on the table."

CEO pay is up 1,085% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 24%.
Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?
