maybe instead of 4 stitches you only need 1!

someone posted that Kavanaugh is trying to walk back his decision, which has been named after him
“Kavanaugh stops”

relatively new to the court , and making a big name in history for himself!

thank you, yes- I am.

it doesnt work for citizens. I’m sure trump is getting a kickback somehow. That’s what the deal was.

maybe sounds preachy- because I had to preach it to myself lol !

my coworkers include a lot of immigrants (yay STEM)! +women, so I figure if I’m making myself sick worrying/raging I’m not doing the right thing. The biggest thing I can do is highlight their work + fight for their promotions. I chuckled at the call for a strike- feel like we all lost productivity!

literally did not see the Christina Rank news. By Monday i was making myself sick (bad sleep, aggressive tooth clenching headaches) and stopped a lot news for a couple days. we’re short at work; if I cant keep up, more gets dumped on my junior/earlier career colleagues so I had to back off

and I think it’s been slightly more “ok” for the public to accept, as she is lesbian and leaves a wife behind, than if she had left a husband. Some unconscious idea that a guy has had something of his taken from him…all super ick. Nice that media did interview exes, it humanized her? So weird.

I was most shaken by Kilmar Abrego for some reason- out there doing his thing and suddenly in CECOT, so I think I had a lot of outrage all along, personally.

well for me - obv I must have assumed I had some privilege that i no longer can count on. Kind of gross perhaps but I think it’s true.
January 17, 2026 at 2:24 AM
fair enough!
I guess everything has escalated- see Jan6 with crazy horn guy standing in the Senate! Still- it feels like its ok to outright murder a new category of people. It’s ok- I’ll still protest (old white ppl standing arnd w/local police protecting us, is what that looks like in my area).

8% is wild

but the govt murdering a random ww and a chunk of the populace cheering it on, is an uncharted next step. I don’t think it’s just that many of us identify with her- I think it’s a rapid escalation in accepted behavior.
Privilege isn’t right and I know this is all reallygross but i think it’s true.
January 17, 2026 at 2:07 AM
nice! yes this was a lot to process. On one hand sure it feels gross ti say, they murdered a white woman. It’s been common (but not govt sanctioned) for a spouse to murder a white woman(ww). It’s semi-common for police to “accidentally” murder a WOC.
January 17, 2026 at 2:01 AM
ok I need to check it out! Thx!
January 16, 2026 at 7:00 PM
congratulations!!!

i try to take it as warning people that no one is “safe”, it can happen equally to them.
but i definitely see your point
January 16, 2026 at 1:04 AM
do take care of yourself! I think I made myself sick for a couple days with just stress, rage, and bad habits. Take some breaks if you can and find joy in the cats!
