Mystery boxes have returned for the end of the year. Get product worth 40 to 60% more than the listed price. This year there's an option just for soap.

Find them for a limited time on the website.

Happy New Year!

I think I was prepared to hate A.I. by already hating leafblowers, which are also extremely wasteful and can't do anything we didn't already know how to do.

*when billionaires EXIST.
So Trump's regime might actually be collapsing - great.

But if we don't dismantle the structures that delivered it and work to fix the system then it'll just happen again. We cannot have a free and fair society when billionaires can buy politicians. Period.

Can we extrapolate this to firearms too, please?
Three children were killed by lawn darts in the 70’s and they were banned in the US.

ChatGPT has caused how many deaths at this point?

If corporations are people, why aren’t we holding them criminally liable?

and it still isn't a binary... DNA be like that.
New proposed DHS rule will potentially require DNA testing for immigrants to prove their sex assigned at birth.

I have blocked this person, but I keep seeing people say things like this, and I’m begging people to understand two things.

(1) Just because peaceful protest may not be sufficient to win this moment does not mean that it is not necessary.

It is.

Not only this is amazing because part of fascism is the destruction of joy but it also makes it look ridiculous that the military is being deployed to put a stop to this

You weren’t “too sensitive”

You were overwhelmed by a world that wouldn’t adapt

You weren’t “lazy”

You were dysregulated, in a system that demands output over care

You weren’t “fine”

You were masking - because it was safer than being you.

You weren’t the problem.

The space wasn’t safe.

Join us tomorrow from 4 to 7 at the Scott Arboretum in Swarthmore for the annual Rose Celebration. This is a free event open to all.

I'll be giving out rose scented soap samples, and there will be other rose inspired treats as well.

Just so everybody understands, Booker has been speaking cogently about the issues the entire time and Strom Thurmond famously spent hours reading from the encyclopedia, because segregationists were and are dumbshits
If Sen. Cory Booker makes it to 7:19 p.m. EST, he will break segregationist Dixiecrat Strom Thurmond's record for his 24 hour 18 minute Senate floor speech against the Civil Rights Act of 1957.

Stress makes people sick.
Years ago Thomas Gordon (author of Parent Effectiveness Training) said to me, "Autocratic environments make people sick." As a psychologist, he was referring to families - specifically, to control-based parenting - but I can't help thinking about the relevance of his comment for an entire nation.

Incorrect.

"Billionaires" should not exist. There's something inherently wrong in a society that allows them to exist.

They would not exist in a just society. The only way to "make" that much money is by exploiting others.

There’s nothing wrong with Billionaires having billions. There is something inherently wrong with billionaires cutting your benefits, and help to the poor through USAID, and running around with a chainsaw giggling.

You can have power or billions. But we refuse to be an oligarchy

Not only that, but the complete erasure of intersex people. Biological reality in the face of fascist idiocy.

There is always something you can do to gum up the works of fascism.

A story. Claude Cahun. The queer nonbinary French-Jewish photographer.

Nazis conquered France, were training soldiers on Jersey, where Cahun lived w/their partner, Marcel Moore.

They did disinfo & morale smashing via Surrealism.
