I just don't understand why Grammarly thinks I want to be told to stop using the passive voice by so many personas?

White people! We do not need to launder the reputations of white wealthy men as "working class". Also, in the Year of the Undying King 2026 how can you even claim mister "Nazi Tattoo" is anti-racist?

I've liked a lot of the work SURJ has done in the past but this is not ok.

"This is not the exit interview you thought you were doing today" I say after telling the new HR specialist from the new HR company about the last six months of harassment and retaliation I have had to deal with from my boss.

But it's an exit interview for a reason! Three days left!

Harris ran the most conservative campaign of any Democrat in my lifetime. She was not progressive. She ran to the right and lost.

She literally campaigned with the Chaney's.

Also, Gaza is a genocide. I'm allowed to get emotional when my tax dollars murder kids because I'm not a fucking ghoul.

Long-COVID Sufferer Awarded Nearly $1M After Employer Refused to Let Her Work From Home | Law.com A jury in Nassau County awarded $954,000 to a longtime employee of Stony Brook University Hospital Blood Bank.

A woman with Long Covid won almost one million dollars in a lawsuit against her employer who refused to allow her work from home accommodations.

May this set a precedent.

Remote work should be accessible to all who need it.

It’s a game changer for people with disabilities.

A large tortoise shell long haired cat.  She is sitting on a desk looking into the camera with yellow eyes.  Her fur is a mix of browns and creams, save for a white mane and white paws.

From the woman who campaigned with the Chaney's in Michigan. Who literally bragged at the DNC about how "lethal" she would make our armed forces. Someone who participated in a genocide in Gaza.

This woman would have πŸ’― have bombed Iran. And a lot of other Dems would have gone along.

we were probably all up last night staring at the ceiling with our own version of the same thought running on endless loop, but mine looked something like this:

I hate these people to a degree that feels simultaneously corrosive to the soul, and also the only righteous response to this kind of evil

My timeline is full of posts like this as if Clinton or Harris would not bomb a school full of girls.

This is not the flex you think it is. Yes, the media sucks. But you know who else sucks when it comes to murdering children in the Middle East? Harris and Clinton.

How Kansas Republicans weaponized the law to target 300 trans driver's license holders SB 244 was put into effect virtually overnight, causing chaos, panic and fear in the trans community.

New β€” I spoke to eight trans people in Kansas about the new state law that invalidated their driver’s licenses overnight, what’s it’s like to live there right now, plus details of two DMV emails exclusively obtained by The Handbasket that shed light on the law’s chaotic and cruel rollout:

So first we have AI undressing girls and now we can have AI vaporizing girls and maybe, maybe, it's time to unplug every fucking data center everywhere.

you wanna know why people with long COVID are insistent about masks so much so that they "annoy" you?
Because there is often no real treatment/care easily accessible for many of us.
Workplaces make it hard for us to earn a living.
Have a little consideration, ffs.

Wounded Knee, South Dakota, 1973. (AP)

On this day in 1973, the armed re-occupation of Wounded Knee begins on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota. Led by Oglala Lakota community members and their American Indian Movement supporters, the action would result in a 71 day standoff.

You know what? I'm trans. I destroyed myself and formed something better from mere ashes. I shaped my entire personal universe from fucking scratch.

I am not going to let anyone tell me that isn't awesome, in the literal definition of awesome. I am not going to be quiet about it.

I've found this as well, especially when the change is rapid. I'm glad you were able to track that. And I am sorry we don't have better networks and care for people with long COVID now 6 years into this. We all deserve so much better.

Just got a message from South High saying β€œWe currently have requests totaling $33,965 for rent and we have $7500 available tomorrow. Please try to share the gofundme widely! Thanks”

Well, that simply will not do. I'll match the first $900. Please help my fellow South High families if you can! πŸ–€πŸ§‘πŸ–€

A small tabby kitten is curled up on a wood floor in front of a teal yoga mat.  He has yellow eyes and a look on his face that just screams cute.

I met this group of wonderful folks while at Netroots last year, and they are doing great work in Mississippi. I just donated $100 - can anyone match me?

A banner featuring a logo on the side with a painted anemone poppy and the handwriting-style text that says "Heal Minds Gaza" in a green circle. Next to it reads: "Heal Minds Gaza is a new initiative that will support children’s healing through therapeutic activities for self-esteem, social skills, and community-building. Support the first project for children who were detained in occupation prisons." The text is written on notebook paper cut in a circle. The banner is decorated with crayon sketches of hearts, stars, and squiggles in different colors.

NEW project for the KIDS! We only have a month to f-und it, but I believe in us!

Heal Minds Gaza will run workshops for children who were detained in occupation prisons: building back their self-esteem, identity, & sense of community.

I'm not confident in our presentation. I mean, all of our materials are loose leaf.

Kong Skull Island is the superior monster movie.

$1400 to go to keep this Minneapolis immigrant family in need safe, housed, and out of eviction court! Can you help make this happen for them tonight?

One would think that this would merit an emergency convening of all Blue state governors, Attorneys generals and Congressional representatives. It's a declaration of war on one state which means they'll do it to others too.

"Accessibility in AI" uhhh. Nope. No. Fuck no.

I don't want these models trained on better data so they are more inclusive of disabled people.

I want to burn these models to the fucking ground, in large part because of the way they harm disabled people.

OH MY GOD imagine waking up and breathlessly trying to explain to your half-asleep husband what/why crystal Shrek is and then ending the story "and now he's going to live HERE," absolutely the best moment of my 2026, I can't believe it, miracles do happen

My social media use is way down bc work takes up so much time & emotional capacity this year that all I wanna do is eat, sleep, have sex & make crafts. I don’t have thoughts about this BAFTA shit that hasn’t already been said, but feel free to go read my book.
