Come what may, I will bet on us, every time, because there is no other bet worth placing. I am all in, fam. I will never stop looking for openings and aiming at them. I will never stop reaching for people and saying, “Take my hand. We can do this.” Because we are worth it.

My two hot takes for the day:
We're capable of caring about more than one thing at once. Some of us can multitask.
-AND-
We can't carry the weight of every crisis, every second, every day. It's impossible.

This kind of anti-Indigenous racism amounts to genocide and it is being carried out by settler governments in so many places.

Two hours after Keira Alexandra Kronvold gave birth, her daughter was taken from her – the third child to be removed from her care following a now-banned assessment that disproportionately targets Inuit women in Denmark. Will she win the fight to get Zammi back?

I went to Houston Pride yesterday and while it was nice to hang out and dance with my friends…, there were sooo many cops. Half of the actual parade were cops.

A reminder that Pride was an uprising against police surveillance and violence, particularly of and against trans folks, sex workers, and People of the Global Majority. It was called Gay Liberation Day before it was called Pride.

This how I know black folk and white folk live in different realities. Because I coulda told you in my teens that some people in this country have so much hate in their hearts that they’d burn this country to the ground just to be rulers over ashes, if it meant people they don’t like get hurt more.

Instead of immediately yelling at a child to stop doing something, maybe explain to them why you don’t want them to do or touch said thing.
6. If you don't have kids, give a piece of parenting advice anyway based on your observations and the fact that you used to be a kid.

Hi I used to work at Starbucks customer service: if you call or email about this, they are absolutely tracking those numbers, and a sufficient amount of public pushback does make them rethink shit sometimes, so now would be an EXCELLENT time to let them know they’re being ableist shitheads

I'm very grateful to @harvard.edu for taking a stand today for academic independence. In solidarity and appreciation, I just made a donation. For those who are able to, I hope you consider it too... They need to know that they have community support www.washingtonpost.com/education/20...
