I will spend every one of the next 100 days working my ass off to find a Democrat to run against every legislator who voted for the LEARNS scam.
If you can join the work, if you are ready to run, if you know someone in a rural district that deserves better, let’s join forces.

As the unfolding ecocide becomes more evident it just seems as though many of us are doubling down on our destructive lifestyles.
It's the result of not having a cohesive culture in place that encourages rationing/sharing/minimalism, nor promotes sacrificing for the greater good.

Yesterday was the busiest day for commercial aviation that we’ve ever tracked. We tracked 134,386 commercial flights on 6 July and today is shaping up to be another busy day. More than 20,000 flights are in the air right now.

Implying that people who wear masks do so because they are anxious about catching Covid is like saying people who look both ways before crossing the street are anxious about getting hit. For those who know the dangers of Covid it is as natural and automatic as putting on a coat.

So the Supreme Court decided that forgiving the student loans of struggling Americans is unconstitutional but forgiving the PPP loans of millionaires like Matt Gaetz and Marjorie Taylor Green is not.

Yes, and usually the "givers" are the women, who experience no reward when they give and backlash when they don't.

Toxic cultures exploit generosity. Takers impose extra work on givers, and no good deed goes unpunished.
Healthy cultures reward generosity. People protect givers from takers, and cream rises to the top.
Helpfulness is not a weakness to target. It's a strength to safeguard.

What’s become apparent in the last few years to me, is that a lot of people find the idea that they should have a responsibility and obligation to other people around them, highly oppressive. It’s a level of egocentrism that even children would be admonished for.

So basically, we wouldn’t want to make more work for fathers and that makes the risk of birth defects worth it. Women’s health at its best.

CMV is the leading infectious cause of birth defects but doctors are not telling pregnant patients about it. The main prevention strategy is to avoid contact with bodily fluids of infected toddlers. It is infantilizing to not give pregnant women this info.

So, to each of you (and as a reminder to myself) I say this:
• ALL BODIES ARE BEAUTIFUL BODIES
• YOUR BODY IS AN INSTRUMENT, NOT AN ORNAMENT
• BEFORE YOU COMMENT ON SOMEONE'S OUTSIDE, CONSIDER YOUR INSIDE
• COMPARISON IS THE THIEF OF JOY
Let's be kind to each other.

I'm very fortunate to live in a state that voted to affirm trans rights by a 2-1 margin, but other states are effectively making it illegal to be trans, with severe penalties in some cases. Allies nationwide really need to help do their part. Now.
