Let’s see how this ages:
I predict Marjorie Taylor Greene will be our first female President.
She will run as anti-establishment, anti-Trump, and conservative. She’s also setting herself up to break Democratic coalitions on foreign policy and women’s issues.
But God I hope I’m wrong.
The GOP will literally starve you and build a ballroom instead of going to therapy.
ICYMI there’s research from the peacebuilding space that shows that men who believe in gender equality are less likely to use violence for conflict resolution, including in foreign policy.
DONT ELECT RAPISTS AND EXPECT ANTI-WAR POLICIES. ITS ALL ABOUT VIOLENCE.
ty for coming to my TedTalk.
Let’s start a conspiracy: do you think Trump is targeting Tylenol because their parent company, Johnson and Johnson, rejected a deal with Trump Rx?
Unlike, say, Pfizer?

wait. is Trump starting WWIII so we forget Elon outed him as being in the Epstein files?
the TIMING
Trump’s decision to bomb Iran risks escalating an already volatile situation into all-out regional conflict. It’s time for Congress to step in and exercise their constitutional authority over war and peace by passing legislation that prohibits Trump from dragging us further into war.
The takeaway: Trump is not an aberration. His hate-filled reign was made possible by a party that governs with, and normalizes, bigotry.
Same & it looks like we’ll get that wish 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Massive #NoKings march in New York City!
I know Democrats are an unserious opposition party because — even now — they will not call to abolish ICE.
Instead, 75 Democrats voted with Republicans to THANK them.
Let’s be clear: supporting ICE undermines safety. No one benefits from unchecked state violence.

I want my tax dollars to send kids to school, not to for-profit detention centers in El Salvador and Louisiana.

And also, killing civilians is wrong, regardless of how it impacts US operations.
Yemenis deserve to live too.
Is it just me, or is it wild how quickly men in a coalition close ranks to exclude women who disagree with them?
Has that happened to you? LMK.
Literally everyone I know and don’t know deserves better treatment than what Kilmar & Rumeysa are being subjected to.
It isn’t about “they can do it to you too” - it’s that this shouldn’t be how we treat each other ever.
Well, my flight out of DCA had to do an emergency landing in Dulles.
And now I have to explain to @unitedairlinesual.bsky.social that I want a refund & was told it was “partially used.”
what?
I took the METRO home. That wasn’t a trip used, it was a trip wasted because of an emergency landing.
We need DEI because technology was NOT created for all of us.
I am a woman on my period. My PAD set off the full-body scan at #DCA airport. I had to get a groin pat down in public.
I have six hours of flights w/ a short layover. A tampon is not an option.
I am a SA survivor. And that sucked
Care is only ‘radical’ if you believe that exploitation is inevitable, and you aspire to be an exploiter and not exploited.
But that zero-sum is wrong because intertwined systems of capitalism, racism & militarism exploit our labor & our most basic needs for education, housing, healthcare.
Is there a word, in any language, that means to be simultaneously full of rage and grief?
Asking for living in the current circumstances.
Bombing Yemen is the bigger problem.
It really sucks that there’s more concern over what platform folks used to decide to take people’s lives than there is over… the decision to take people’s lives.
What if the signal chat leak was intentional to create a public demand to release the transcript, which would create a pathway to getting any signal chat transcripts?
What if this is another attack on dissent?
*preparing to scream into the void*
We don’t need CONFERENCES and THOUGHT PIECES. We need SAFE HOUSES and LEGAL FUNDS.
You: Why aren’t you dating?
Me: babe… my friends send me flowers and care packages.
The bar is simply too high.
Don’t allow sex offenders to use county rec centers? Is that hard?
The truth is disgustingly obvious and …. Ignored…
If 1,440 people sign up, we can do a 24 hour marathon scream at the White House.
Everyone screams for ten minutes, in groups of ten, for 24 hours.
10 people per 10 min segment
6 segments per hour
24 hours
Trump wants to brand himself as a peacemaker, but this is mafia rule.
Trump/Musk threatens to cut off Ukraine’s internet — critical infrastructure, esp. during war & humanitarian work — if they dont give half their mineral rights to the U.S.
This is what gangs do.

Hear me out:
A DC drag brunch that is making fun of Trump & Elon and the crisis they have made, with classic Broadway hits like:
“Whatever Big Balls Wants” to Whatever Lola Wants
“Defying All the Laws” to Defying Gravity
“Suddenly Fascists” to Suddenly Seymour
What else?!
