This fantasy of "civil" debate that white cis hetero men (and some people who share some of those identities) have is only ever safely possible for those people. They get to debate the civil rights, the actual lives, health, and livelihoods of people they will never be.

Happy National Video Game Day.
Video games literally got me through my childhood.
An AuDHD kid with an evangelical upbringing, lonely days, few friends, and a lot of "I don't belong here" in my head.
Video games gave me escapism and some control that I never really had. Forever grateful.💜

Not everybody is a safe space. That’s why I don’t believe you owe everybody a duty to be forthcoming just because they ask you a question. Can they handle your truth? While they’re over there asking?

I realized a long time ago, before I had kids, that I am a “work to live” person. I will work hard enough to live comfortably and no harder. I don’t derive my self esteem from my job title or salary. I don’t even care about money aside from what it allows me to do and have.

This is oligarchy. This is obscene.
While 60% live paycheck to paycheck & kids go hungry, Jeff Bezos, worth $230 billion, goes to Venice on his $500 million yacht for a $20 million wedding & spends $5 million on a ring while his real tax rate is just 1.1%.
End this oligarchy.

Iran ain’t my enemy. They ain’t serving their donors instead of the people. They ain’t giving the police more money to oppress and kill us. They ain’t funding no genocide that’s widely unpopular in America.

Trump pardoned Paul Walczak, a nursing home executive who illegally withheld millions from his workers' paychecks (while buying a luxury yacht).
The pardon came after his mother attended a $1M-per-person Trump fundraiser at Mar-a-Lago last month.
Everything is for sale.
