The funny part about the country right now is that so many people are demonizing people like MLK Jr, Ms. Rachel, and Mr. Rogers. When you are on the side that thinks Ms. Rachel is evil... you should probably rethink your morals.
This week has absolutely broken me. Our country is waging war on it's own people. I am terrified.

Fast forward to today, amazon sent out a statement but sengled still hasn't. There are rumors they are out of buissiness... and haven't paid their employees since February. So after 4 long days today I finally ordered new bulbs from a different company. #sengleddead #answeryourcustomers
So the sengled drama has been absolute chaos for the last 4 days. We lost all our lights Wednesday night followed by my deep dive into the internet forums trying to get a multinational company to talk to all the customers in the same situation.
Blessed Litha! Whether you call it Litha, midsummer, or solstice... enjoy the shortest night of the year. Sadly from here on out the days will get shorter. Celebrate the light and warmth of summer!
🚨🚨The White House is pissed off about this ad so you know what to do, share it everywhere! ICE is disappearing people just because of the color of their skin! No Warrant! No Due Process! This is not who we are as Americans! #MAGAKidnappers want an all white America, fuck that‼️
On the call #nokings

NEW: He didn’t like Pelosi. He didn’t like Tim Walz. He didn’t like Joe Biden. He DID like Alex Jones. He DID vote for Trump. He would be offended if anyone thought he was a democrat.

Footage of the Minnesota assassin Vance Luther Boelter, a life long registered republican and "Christian" nationalist incel that hated women. He's 100% MAGA.
You get 365 days a year where the world celebrates you simply because you won the birth lottery by being white, a make, cis, and straight.
For the rest of us.... all we can do is fight and stand together. Lift each other up as they step on us.
The current president literally just rolled back every ounce of progress women, lgbtq, or people of color have made in the last century. So congratulations to straight cis white men. You get 365 days a year where the world celebrates you simply because you won the birth
How absolutely ridiculously self centered and just grotesquely obtuse do you have to be to think cis straight white men deserve any sort of pride celebrations. The entire world and the entire calendar is a giant celebration to you. The current president literally just rolled back every ounce of
And this isn't even getting started on the absolute horror that is how trans people are treated. They can no longer serve in the military, play sports, or even get a passport in this country now.
How absolutely ridiculously self centered and just grotesquely obtuse do you have to be to
Because straight people can buy a cake anywhere!
Because straight people don't have hate spewed at them 24/7!
Because being straight wasn't illegal for generations!
Because being straight isn't STILL illegal in a ton of countries!
Because straight people could always marry who they loved! (or even marry someone as a land contract or joining of families for money....but that's a different argument)
Because straight people don't have their rights to life liberty and the pursuit of happiness taken away!
If I hear "when is STRAIGHT pride month?" one more time....
Why do straight people not get a pride month? Because 365 days a year is straight pride!
Because no one ever unalived someone simply for being straight!

Tweet from People For the American Way contrasts Trump aiding the return of a man charged with rape and trafficking with his inaction on a working-class father of three not charged with a crime. Below the text are photos of Andrew Tate giving a thumbs-up and a Kilmar Abrego Garcia wearing a backwards cap.
And if they had the power to spring Tate out of Romania, they have the power to spring Abrego García out of El Salvador.
or "how are my sat scores" not "will colleges all get shut down by the president before I graduate highschool?" My daughter goes off to college Fall of 2027.... that is in 2 years.... I honestly have no idea where we will be as a society in 2 years....
You know what is absolutely crazy? This will be the first time in my lifetime other than in 2020 that High School kids absolutely do not know what the future will bring. Usually the worries are "are my grades good enough to get into my first choice college" or "how are my sat scores" not
I’M GOING TO KEEP POSTING THIS STORY UNTIL ANDRY IS FREED: Gay Venezuelan makeup artist sent to Salvadoran prison after a disgraced cop's report
Andry Hernandez Romero sought shelter in the U.S. because he was persecuted as a gay man, one of the "particular social groups" allowed to claim asylum.
“Sickening and heartbreaking”
Someone who was at the Marge Greene town hall where folks who dissented were arrested/targeted/tased by police — who has voted for both parties — writes about what she saw 👇🏽
When I get to the Senate, I'll support a bill to ban Congressional stock trading on day one.
No elected official should be cashing in while the American people see their retirements go down the drain.
