And teachers!
Mental load: women are talking about it all the time. Are men?
I was just talking about this yesterday. It would have a big impact if we ended red state welfare support.
The party of “family values” is attacking our kids.
When someone tells you who they are, believe them.
Our country has abandoned our children in the most cruel and inhumane way. We've left them to deal with guns on their own. I don't want to hear any more stories about the heroism of small children and teachers protecting one another. It is our failing that they are put in this situation at all.
If EVERY couple is arguing about mental load and what is "fair," then we have a systematic problem, not an individual problem.
I will never get over how a handful of tech bros set billions of dollars on fire to build a plagiarism machine that doesn't work and will destroy human society when they could have used a fraction of that money to fund a new golden age of creativity and knowledge.
Me, too, young sir. Me, too.
The idea that we have lost so many inventions and solutions to big problems due to patriarchy, racism, and classism truly makes me sad. How many creative, wise people were ignored or held down by trauma or societal bonds? 😭 Maybe we are our own worst enemies.
🤣🤣🤣
I'm ready for a circle.
Not just politicians. Wishing there were natural consequences for lies.
Oh, the contradictions!
Let that sink in for a moment.
🤣🤣🤣
More and more, I think capitalism is an inhumane system. At least the way we do it in the US.
I was going to say "because they would rather have you be pregnant," but that wouldn't be free either. Actually, they are microaggressressions built into the system.
I'm not anti-AI. But, it should be treated like a tool. It needs guardrails to protect us.
No need for research on women's health.
He or others.
I choose "woke!"
I'm older than my 30s, and this still applies.
I mean, what could possibly go wrong if everyone uses AI to write their emails and tell them, "You're right!" when they rehash the argument they had with their spouse?
Eating is optional in this economy.
Things Trump claims to know more about than anyone else: * grass * campaign finance * lawsuits * the visa system * construction & rebuilding infrastructure * renewal energy * trade * taxes * the economy * drones I feel much better knowing that I'm in such self-proclaimed good hands.
$3.4 billion. That's a lot of school lunches.
The age of the Robber Barons. When a small group of people control the laws so they can be richer than any person could spend in their lifetime or their children's. While the rest of us work harder, are sicker, & die younger. Thanks, but no thanks.
Men: We want on-demand access to gorgeous women to use as glorified sex toys and forget about. Women: We want men who care about us as human beings and thus about our pleasure. Men: YOU ARE CRUEL BEYOND BEARING, WHY DO YOU HATE. US?
Maybe we should be staging a hunger strike in solidarity.
If only we could get him on the couch of a good therapist...
💯
They'll take your "defund the police" and raise you $170 billion in secret police. You'll see that the problem is not hatred,oppression, violence, and abuse--it's transparency.
In discussion with a MAGAt, they said, "No, I wouldn't leave my daughter in a room with Trump. What does that have to do with what kind of president he would be?" If he doesn't already know, I don't want to be the one who has to explain.
As we've been saying. #EndGerrymanderingOhio
Anxiety and anger are the most contagious emotions.
Just release the files already. 🙄
2025 Many thanks for reminding us all how fortunate we were. What could the second half of the year possibly bring?!?
I'm so grateful for this frequent reminder. @georgetakei.bsky.social I'm so sorry for what you and your family went through. There is no excuse and no compensation to make up for it.
Made me snort-laugh. If only...
Any time now.
Not that we need any more proof of the hate that people have towards women....
Always follow the money.
A platform for the next election. This is a good start.
"For too long, countless Americans with criminal histories have been permanently disenfranchised from exercising the right to keep and bear arms...irrespective of whether they actually pose a threat," said Attorney General Pamela Bondi. "No longer."
Weird contradiction: Deport immigrants because they are inherently dangerous AND Arm convicted criminals because they have been "unfairly marginalized." DOJ is taking public comments now.
I'm getting so tired of unqualified nominees who will destroy our government.
I've wondered how Trump maintained such fierce loyalty from so many politicians. What dirt is he holding over their heads? Could he have used the Epstein Files as blackmail? Maybe that's another reason he won't release them. He'd lose his leverage.
May we finally see how patriarchy hurts everyone, even those who are privledged by it, and it quietly fade into obscurity.
We've imagined what the world would look like if women were in charge. This is the beginning. First step, controlling our own lives. It boggles my mind, that in a world in danger of overpopulation, people who choose not to have children are demonized. Perhaps, instead, this is wisdom.
How can we make humanity-saving a well paid career? A question for the age. Thanks for posing it @greenhombre.bsky.social
Your work is important and valuable. If others protest your passion, then they don't understand that social justice and ministry are supposed to go hand in hand. Don't shrink or edit for those who don't value your compassion.
@amsickofpollies.bsky.social - thanks for spotting this. I reformatted it and also have a four-up PDF if anyone wants it.
Are we Great Again yet?
Of the 1000 deaths from COVID worldwide in the last 30 days, 645 were in the US. I guess if we don't talk about it, it's not really happening.
Supreme Court ruled that mass layoffs by executive order can continue. Trump says we haven't even begun to dismantle the government. "no more than one employee should be hired for every four employees that depart"
But, at least our "beloved" billionaires won't be inconvenienced with the cost of taxes.
November 4, 2026 Election day
Love this idea!
I read a book about gay people and became gay and then I read a book about straight people and became straight again and then I read a book about Australians and became Australian and then I read a book about Bigfoot and became Bigfoot. Book-banners are weak knuckleheads.
"Chatbots like ChatGPT should not replace therapists because of their dangerous tendencies to express stigma, encourage delusions, and respond inappropriately in critical moments."
If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people: 1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money 3) We won’t need a lot of troops 4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq 5) We’ll find WMDs 6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators 7) It will be easy 8) It won’t take long All lies.
Outsourcing our brain functions using AI has consequences pretty quickly. At least, that's what one of the earliest studies is finding. (Maybe that's exactly what we need to not care when AI takes all of our jobs.)
Eating our cats and dogs, going on crime sprees while also Paying taxes that they get no benefit from and keeping many of our service industries afloat.
The world as told in shoes.
What about all of the federal workers who have received pay while laid off or when they were reinstated? While they deserve to be paid for being treated so poorly, I want to see what that bill looks like. The fraud and waste patrol squandering our tax dollars.
In some cases, by the exact same people.
🚨🚨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‼️
A beautiful celebration. Marking the moment when EVERYONE was freed. Not when the first person was freed. Not when the most were freed. But when the last were freed, a celebration for all. I wish we applied this concept to many issues. The work isn't finished until everyone is included.
Here's your waste, fraud, and abuse. Now that Elon dismantled the government agencies that were slowing him down, we will see even more of this. Which seems impossible to consider since he has had so many losses in the last few months. SMH
This is certainly how my daughters feel.
Love this! 💥👍💖
They've got enough money to throw us into another war, but not enough money to fund the suicide prevention hotline. Very "pro-life." Very "pro-family." So "GREAT."
🤣🤣🤣
This worker is thinning peach trees in Central CA. It takes skill to do this while balanced on top of a ladder. He's currently making CA min wage. It's hard to support his family on this. He's eager for harvesting to start when he could get piece rate and earn more. #WeFeedYou
Obama Appreciation Day! First post.
