@Uber_Support we have a family of 6 and the new covid restrictions say 5. We reserved an XL for pick up tomorrow am. Are we able to all go together still?

@GEICO_Service @noleforjustice @Geico you completely missed the point 🤦🏻‍♀️. Your marketing strategy is putting victims of violent crime in a possession where they will no longer be safe. Please do better. @noleforjustice doesn’t want your empty apology- - we want you to FIX it. #metoo

My daughter had wanted to do a makeup tutorial for months. I finally let her—with real makeup. 💄

@Cameron_Gray @ChrisCuomo From where I’m sitting- as a survivor of rape my #RightToChoose begins and ends at abortion... 🙄 Apparently it’s extreme, paranoid and absurd to want the #RightToChoose how to defend my body before I have to tell the government to stay out of it. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Someone said to me “You don’t look like a rape victim” They meant it as a compliment, but my question is - What does a rape victim look like? And to take it one step further - What does a rapist look like? #ThursdayThoughts

ONCE AGAIN A REMINDER: Rape isn’t a joke or a punchline. It certainly isn’t “hilarious”. This should go without saying.

And for the record—no—Mike didn’t use comic sans. This is a marriage, not a lemonade stand.

Imagine finding your soulmate. You fall in love. You plan a perfect wedding and script your own vows to each other. The ceremony is beautiful. His words are divine. Life is finally as it should be. At home, he gives you his typed vows as a keepsake. He used comic sans.

I bet if congress’ pay checks were withheld during the shutdown there would be a solution real quick!

Did you know rape survivors experience the same PTSD as combat veterans? In fact, 30% of all PTSD cases are survivors of sexual violence. No one would ever tell a combat veteran “Get over it, it happened a long time ago” Let’s show survivors that same respect #SetTheExpectation

☑️ Start by believing. ☑️ Advocate for due process. ☑️ Support survivors. These are not mutually exclusive concepts or practices.

Ridiculous. In a court room, women are required to face their alleged attackers and the accused have a right to face their accuser. She should testify with him in the room. Yes, it is difficult. It is also just.

(bringing in an outside counsel would make it too trial-like, they believe) --Ford does NOT want Kavanaugh in the room when she testifies, and she asked that Kavanaugh testify first --Raised prospect of subpoena for Mark Judge and other potential witnesses

@hunterzzz @KatiePavlich I was never given such a previldge to negotiate the terms apon which I testified against my rapist. He was less than 20ft away from me. It was beyond difficult/ traumatizing but it was my duty and its what our justice system calls for. He was proven guilty beyond doubt.
