Happened to me last night. I let loose on a family member who called their tattooed, non-binary adult child “weird.” FM had never even seen the Kansas story. FM also said it was all a difference of opinion. Sigh.

Isn’t it a gay rights term?

Thank you! I know my outburst with my family member made no inroads. They just dig in more.

lol my concern with research that only surveys white college students and makes broad conclusions is that not everyone thinks or acts like white college-educated people. DUH!

They think we’re the ones who aren’t sharing values. It is always turned back against us.

I lost my cool with a family member last night who hadn’t heard of the Kansas law & said their rationale is that we have to have a way to know someone is who they say they are. This after calling their own child “weird” because they present as non-binary. It‘s a tangled web, for sure.

Rep Stansbury: “The president & his admin can’t explain a legal justification for an eminent threat that gave them the authority to use the military—

They can’t provide an explanation of their war plan — they can’t explain why they’ve killed over 200 civilians — the president needs to be impeached”

BREAKING: I tried to pass a bill to pay TSA agents and fund FEMA as Democrats push for common sense reforms to protect Americans from being killed by untrained and masked DHS agents.

Guess what? Republicans BLOCKED it.

Congress needs to RE-CALIBRATE FAST:

This is NOT about "whether to fund" Trump's monarchical war.

This is about IMPEACHING and CONVICTING and REMOVING him from office for this, yet ANOTHER high crime of abusing the Presidency and using the US military WITHOUT PERMISSION.

That’s what MAGA does with everything. They blame others.

First we’re gonna break up and traumatize perfectly happy families. Then we’re gonna make food unaffordable. Then we’re gonna tell kids that the remedy is to cook a meal.

after absolutely eviscerating Kristi Noem and calling for her resignation, Tillis is applauded. He thens threatens to hold up nominees if she doesn't stop stonewalling him. My God.

It wasn't "cancel culture" when women and people of color got used up, silenced, and dismissed before their careers even began. It only became "cancel culture" when powerful abusers started having established careers momentarily inconvenienced by revelations of what they'd done.

My dad‘s father was a diplomat from Germany to Mexico. He got the family out in 1936. Hitler let them go. My dad was three. They fled to Canada and then to Los Angeles, where they lived on the beach for a time. Had three more kids. My Oma remembered the beach with much fondness.

Folks look at you like you’re crazy when you say we’re in the midst of the worst, most unprecedented Article I constitutional crisis in American history, & then this guy, confirmed by 50 GOP Senators, has lost his mind & is claiming “maximum authorities” he & the president absolutely do not have.

We just blew up an Iranian ship in international waters and left all of the survivors to drown.

This is who we are now.
