This is it right fucking here
Giving a bully your lunch money is only a temporary downpayment for future bullying.
We ALL need to step up for the first amendment.
By-the-way, for the record, this ex-Disney employee finds Jimmy Kimmel very talented and funny.

I must confess: I am a Disney adult. My home is filled with Star Wars, Marvel, and Haunted Mansion stuff. I am wearing a Muppets shirt in my profile picture. I have canceled my Disney+ account. If I can do it, you can do it too.
every time we talk about parental permission in terms of book banning I'm like fuck man. kids have rights too. a 17-year-old should be able to check out books at the library without Mom and Dad stepping in. so should a 10-year-old or 7 or whatever. kids deserve SOME goddamn freedom and privacy
I was really confused about the weird contradictory rules in the fantasy book that Iβm reading, and then I realized the author is Mormon. Iβd be a terrible Mormon. Iβd ask too many questions about coffee and soda. Though Iβm definitely thankful they invented dirty sodas.
Thank God. Absolutely ridiculous that it was that close.
I saw the thing about the dept of education βpatriotic civics,β and I also recently attended an interview with a holocaust survivor who spoke about not being able to attend school because it wasnβt safe.
Please start researching secular, academic homeschooling if you are any sort of outlier.
8/6/25: "Fallon has no talent. Kimmel has no talent. They're next. They're gonna be going." DJT. 9/15/25: "The Maga Gang desperately trying to characterise this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it." Kimmel 9/17/25: "We can do this the easy way or the hard way. These companies can find ways to change conduct and take action, frankly, on Kimmel, or there's going to be additional work for the FCC ahead." "We at the FCC are going to force the public interest obligation. There are broadcasters out there that don't like it, they can turn in their license in to the FCC." Trump FCC 9/17/25, later: "Jimmy Kimmel Live will be preempted indefinitely," ABC spokesperson. 9/17/25, later: "Congratulations to ABC for finally having the courage to do what had to be done. That leaves Jimmy and Seth, two total losers, on Fake News NBC. Their ratings are also horrible. Do it NBC!!! President DJT" DJT, Truth Social.
Add to all this that Herr Bankrott is now threatening to take away all their licenses for being big meanies to him, this was an indisputable attack on first amendment rights.
Regardless of the disgraceful nonsense we will likely hear from this administration in the coming days on vaccine βrecommendations,β Americas healthcare insurers issued a joint statement tonight saying coverage for Covid and flu shots will remain unchanged from prior years.
Speaks for itself.
Pink, purple, orange dahlias in a vase on a mantel.
Itβs nice knowing someone who enjoys growing flowers because they have a ton to give away at the end of the season.
One of the book club kids said today that a good romance starts with friends falling in love, and a bad romance starts with rah rah ah ah ah.
Iβm going to be writing about books, creative writing, and secular homeschooling for kids who arenβt safe in schools over here!

Poem on purple background with black outline flowers. Text reads: DON'T FORGET TO LOVE HER. THE LITTLE GIRL YOU USED TO BE. PERHAPS SHE LIES WITHIN YOU. UNTUCKED. SLEEPING PEACEFULLY. Kiana Llanos Nurture
Iβm afraid that mine is a little bit like the teenage girl in the attic on Ghosts, but she deserves love too.
Iβm finally watching the Las Culturistas awards and I think my husband thinks Ana Gasteyer actually works at Womencrafts. He just said, βaw, weβll have to go there next time.β Do you know how many times Iβve made him watch Mean Girls?
I'm just glad one of these men has the nuclear codes and the other has all our personal data.
As predicted, women in New Hampshire had a hard time voting yesterday because of the new proof of citizenship law:
βIt doesnβt have my married name on it,β she said. Town voting officials then sent her away a second time, to get her marriage certificate.

Sen Chris Murphy (D-CT) just now:
βYou could literally walk
down the street and the first 100 people youβd find would be less dangerous as the head of HHS than Robert F Kennedy Jr. He will get people killedβ
Maybe they should put more brain worms in there. Maybe they could run the Health Department Ratatouille-style.
We finally finished reading the hunger games trilogy in the middle school book club. Whew! Mockingjay? In this climate? I'm ready to move onto something cozier: Greek Gods by Rick Riordan. Yes, Greek mythology is cozier right now. π
Better to check now & get topped up than risk it later. With Trumpβs chaotic rule changes & RFK Jrβs anti-vax nonsense, access to vaccines could shrink fast. Tetanus, MMR, shingles, fluβmake sure youβre covered before they make it harder. Stay ahead of the mess.
I went through and followed a bunch of people I was following on Twitter, so if you click to my profile wondering who I am: hi! I used to follow you before all that mess happened over there! βΊοΈ
I agree about leaving Meta, but at the same time, I worry what will happen if everyone who is against state-sponsored propaganda leaves one of the major communication channels at the very beginning of this presidency.
Does this mean what it sounds like it means? Why isnβt anyone talking about this?
So according to the executive order, in 30 days, they want the separation of the sexes to be defined, and then they want βsex-based rights, protections, opportunities, and accommodationsβ to be enforced.
Immediately before the inauguration, the former president tried to have the equal rights amendment added to the constitution. This did not happen, and the current vp basically laughed at it and said no way on social media.
I donβt know where to share this, but I need to say something because itβs EXTREMELY ALARMING. This is the language in the βdefending womenβ executive order:
