Have you ever stepped inside a memory, took your younger self by the hand and walked them straight out of a situation they should’ve never been in?

Reminder: Audre Lorde taught us that caring for ourselves is "not self-indulgence, it is self-preservation, and that is an act of political warfare." #PleasureActivism #DestigmatizePleasure
“Transported” is a perfect word for it 😮💨
It’s heartbreaking what was normalized at the time. Definitely brought back a lot of painful memories/feelings.
“Sales of BBW-SSBBW content are up more than 42% since the popularisation of drugs like Ozempic. The rise of adult creator content has brought an increased celebration of different types of bodies, even if mainstream culture may be focused more narrowly.”
Everybody has it backwards.
Billionaires aren’t buying up these institutions to make money. They’re buying them to kill them. Same as the oligarchs destroying government and social programs and things like weather forecasting and regulatory bodies.
They’re creating a world they control completely
Was the biblical flood real?
- “The one thing we know for sure from geology is that a global flood never happened. If you look at it as literally a global flood that covered the world's highest mountains, I'm sorry, there's just not enough water on Earth to do that.” — Professor David Montgomery
😅
How my brain works, in a series of web searches:
How old was the oldest person to ever live?
- 122 years and 164 days
Has the age of Bible characters been verified (I.e. 900+)?
- The ages of biblical characters, particularly those who lived before the Flood — not scientifically verified.

Audre Lorde, in a 1989 commencement address, said, "Remember this, despair is a tool of your enemies. That rumor, 'You can’t fight City Hall,' is circulated by City Hall. Facing the realities of our lives gives us the motivation for action, it gives us the power to change. You are not powerless."
A little girl in Portland, OR after being tear gassed by ICE. what the actual fuck.
Today I saw ICE gas little white kids in the streets of Portland with chemical weapons. Imagine what they're doing to brown and black kids in the detention camps
Despite what we are often told, this line from Mamdani’s inauguration speech is what true pragmatism actually looks like:
“Beginning today, we will govern expansively and audaciously. We may not always succeed. But never will we be accused of lacking the courage to try.”
The cast of Shrinking: Harrison Ford, Jason Segel, Jessica Williams, Luke Tennie, and Christa Miller
Why didn’t anyone tell me Shrinking on Apple TV was so good?! Just the right amount of silly and sadness for the current climate. A feel-good show that somehow manages to hold space for our collective grief. 10/10 recommend!
If a man speaks the language of brute force, you can't come to him with peace. Why, good night! He'll break you in two, as he has been doing all along. If a man speaks French, you can't speak to him in German. If he speaks Swahili, you can't communicate with him in Chinese. You have to find out what this man speaks. And once you know his language, learn how to speak his language, and he'll get the point. There'll be some dialogue. You know the language the Klan speaks. It is a duty, it's your and my duty as human beings, it is our duty to our people, to organise ourselves and let the government know that if they don't stop that Klan, we'll stop it ourselves. So I don't believe in violence - that's why I want to stop it. And you can't stop it with love. So, we only mean vigorous action in self-defence and that vigorous action we feel we're justified in initiating by any means necessary. The press call us racist and people who are "violent in reverse." This is how they psycho you. They make you think that if you try to stop the Klan from lynching you, you're practising "violence in reverse."
Thinking of a few Malcolm x speeches as they tell people getting kidnapped in the streets by masked thugs to ‘remain calm’
"During the darkest days of the AIDS crisis, we buried our friends in the morning, we protested in the afternoon, and we danced all night.
The dance kept us in the fight because it was the dance we were fighting for."
I'm gonna say this with all the kindness in my heart: you aren't going to survive if you don't let your life have room for other things.
This is not a short term fight where we can just go 24/7 and then it will be over. We've got YEARS ahead of us. Take a break. Hydrate. Go bake something. Breathe.
remember when some of y'all were welcoming her to the resistance ... please, next time she mildly criticizes trump, please remember she's still the enemy, trying to hurt my family specifically. and they aren't gonna stop with minors.
The idea that sexual abuse is part of “private” life instead of a public crisis has done incalculable damage. Anti-rape activists have to fight to even make it possible to expose sexual abuse as a wrongdoing in public without being silenced and undermined. That fight is far from won
Would love to come back on, it’s been awhile! 🤗
I am looking for guests with disabilities to come on my award-winning podcast Disability After Dark. If you are interested, reach out to me at andrew@andrewgurza.com and please pass this along.
