Patriarchy is a system, and misogyny is its enforcer.

@mindys4Biden Maybe they said, "successors" 🤞

Went to Walter Reed this morning now he's calling for his entire cabinet to meet him at Camp David. WH says he wants to discuss his "successes." But what if he's calling this meeting because he got very bad news from the dr & is stepping down? Could we be that lucky? I wonder

@Lovandfear Blaming your parents

What’s a “flex” that instantly becomes embarrassing after a certain age?

Maybe you'e not "lost." Maybe you're just at that stage where you've decided to move on from your old, vulnerable identity-- but your new identity isn't quite stable or developed yet. Maybe this is a point every survivor working a realistic trauma recovery experiences. (It is.)

I now believe this man is deeply, utterly stupid. Human intelligence isn’t just about processing data, or regurgitating facts. It’s the ability to reason, create and feel. Honestly, I’m sick of these fucking robotic dickheads. Burn it all down 🔥

“I am tired of people calling those of us who get stuck in these cycles "codependent" or "addicted" to the narcissistic relationship. It's not that. If you have any empathy, have normal cognitive functioning, and were shaped by societal and cultural norms and realities, it is not surprising that you would get stuck. The narcissistic relationship is like a riptide that pulls you back in even as you try to swim away. The intensity, attentiveness, and highs and lows are why you swim out to where the riptide is. The abusive behavior makes you want to swim away from the riptide, but the guilt and fear of leaving, the practical issues raised by leaving (financial, safety, cultural, family), as well as the natural drive toward attachment, connection, and love are what keep you stuck in the riptide's pull.” ― Ramani Durvasula, PhD

A United States Senator got pepper-sprayed for trying to conduct oversight at a detention facility where hunger strikes are taking place. If ICE is willing to use force against elected officials and protestors asking questions, imagine what’s happening behind closed doors to everyone else. I stand with everyone demanding accountability at Delaney Hall and calling for its immediate closure.

I want to say this sincerely: If I ever repost or amplify someone who goes against what I stand for, please let me know. Snakes hide in the grass sometimes, and I do not catch everything immediately. A repost is not always a blanket endorsement of a person. Sometimes it’s a specific idea, a piece of information, or an insight I believe is valuable for people to consider. If this resonates, I want to hear from you. My signal is in my bio. I’m often inundated with messages, so give me a beat to get back to you.

It’s more than bots. Real people are working overtime to rewrite history. Stick with me. ✊🏼 I got you

Tengo la teoría de que el romance está desvaneciéndose porque también la gente ya no lee como antes, ya no se escribe como antes. Hemos perdido la magia de las palabras, el entender al mundo a través de metáforas, nombrar sin darle sentido. Nos hace falta vulnerarnos.

A salary increase of 2-4% is NOT considered a raise.

It feels like America is being run by a bunch of punk ass teenage boys.
