i don't understand conservative toughness, which involves being scared shitless of everything but also talking about how tough you are

Funny, literally no one has to put quotes by Jane Goodall "into context" for them to make sense or change how they represent her. 💁🏼‍♀️

BREAKING NEWS: Troops are assembling in Portland to get tattoos, start a public food garden, and play protest songs on ukulele in ethically sourced clothing.

I'd rather be associated with people who drop f-bombs in public (it me) than ones who use the N word with the hard R in private/their circles- those guys can fuck off directly and expeditiously to the next available hell.

"Well, well, well, what do you know? The gunman was a white dude who supports Trump." she says for the 92476th time...

I am actually 12 bc everything I see a post on the MTHFR gene, I read it as MTHRFKR and I'm like, "Oh, I definitely have that one" 😅😂

Idk who needs to hear this, but trying to get other full grown adults to obey your concept of your imaginary friend is crazy work. 💁🏼‍♀️

If "Tylenol causes Autism" 😒, are they cool with vaccines now? 💉🤔

Yuuuuup. Let's go, folks!

White people can move the needle if they want. Y'all got Jimmy Kimmel back on the air boycotting, you can throw some of that expendable income to support the vulnerable through mutual aid, you can make some moves against fascism instead of performatively bemoaning what you think doesn't affect you.

"Peace can only last where human rights are respected, where the people are fed, and where individuals and nations are free." - Dalai Lama

I'm against people being anti-abortion. That means I believe people should not be able to impede (and that I support) those getting them, or I wouldn't have feelings about people being against it. Being against people being anti-something means you stand by said thing.

This post is about fascism.

“Once a government is committed to the principle of silencing the voice of opposition, it has only one way to go, and that is down the path of increasingly repressive measures, until it becomes a source of terror to all its citizens and creates a country where everyone lives in fear." - Harry Truman

The Paradox of Tolerance stays in full effect in my spaces.

"If a society extends tolerance to those who are intolerant, it risks enabling the eventual dominance of intolerance; thereby undermining the very principle of tolerance."

CK has been the Bjoré pore strip of my friends list- like DAMN, I didn't know that was even in there! Just hiding all casual, being a hardened piece of waste. 😒

Good riddance to all that subtly clogs our faces and feeds with nastiness. ✨️

After 47 years, Jerry has made the difficult decision to step down from the company we built together. I’m sharing his words as he resigns from Ben & Jerry’s. His legacy deserves to be true to our values, not silenced by @magnumicecreamco.bsky.social #FreeBenAndJerrys

The Venn diagram of people trying to argue, "They're just words, he never hurt anyone!" and the people who want books banned for their content is a circle. 📚

Idk who needs to hear this, but being relieved to be in less danger is not the same as wishing it on someone else. Being relieved less hate is being sent one's way is not the same as feeling it towards someone else.

Hope this helps.
