Absolutely nothing will prepares you for what this wheelchair user does when the chairlift at a train station doesn’t work.

In 6th grade, I ran for student council and convinced all the boys in my class to vote for me bc I explained that all the girls would pool their votes together and we wouldn’t get a seat at the table. I won, and then the girls found out about my campaign and demanded my removal.

In 7th grade we went skiing for a school trip and our bus had one of those. We voted for a movie to watch and the boys were torn between different action comedies while all girls uniformly voted for High School Musical. That's when I realized that democracy doesn't work

Right now, there is a trial happening in Boston that is being televised where a mother with postpartum psychosis killed her 3 young children before slashing her own wrists and jumping out of a second floor window, which ended up paralyzing her from the waist down. Her psychosis took off after the birth of her 3rd child, right before she was scheduled to return to work as a labor and delivery nurse. She was being treated with medication, daily appointments with her doctors and a stint at McLean Psychiatric Hospital. She is the one who begged for help. She committed this crime on the day her husband left the house for 1/2 hour to get groceries because she seemed to be doing better. The fact that this woman is on trial when she was clearly out of her mind is unconscionable. The fact that she, her husband and even the first responders are being forced to relive the event is also unconscionable. One of the jurors asked to be removed because he couldn’t handle it. Out of all the things though, the most unconscionable of unconscionable things is the way we treat mothers and their babies in this country. From @taprootbirth “Postpartum depression is a condition affecting the neurotransmitters in a person's brain. It is also caused by lack of presence, care and community. In many traditional cultures it is taught that a new mother should never be left alone with her babies. She needs the co-regulation of wise women/people. She needs grounded humans who feed her, make sure she is hydrated, clean her sink, brew her tea, ladle her soup, and play with her other children. Someone to sit with her, share stories, and make her laugh. Help her remember she is human. A mother who is left alone with her babies postpartum has the cognitive impact of a person who has survived war. Her body thinks she has been abandoned by her community.” If there is something good to come out of this, let it be the end of the expectation that caregiving is something that we consider as a last priority after all the other things. Because it’s fucking time.



If a woman tortures and kills her 5 year old son with a blowtorch, the majority of feminists will demand her immediate release no matter what. Christian conservatives have no answer to women’s unraveling sanity, so they choose to ignore it.

@Bobbythirdway What does "the bill is coming due" even mean though? For whom? It seems like the same young men are going to be the ones to suffer the most of it.


It’s clearly young men’s fault for not marrying and having children with these sociopathic derangoids.

The Republican Party is experiencing a “Groyper Problem” (far-right Zoomers) with over 50% of GOP congressional staff being Groypers, according to POLITICO.




@LauraRbnsn @elonmusk You mean sometimes shit happens? If a previously-devoted, now psychotic woman killed her children, she has been failed.

my response to my gf going out with her ex. did i do anything wrong
