This tweet comes unironically from the GOP, which loves giant defense budgets, wants to regulate women's bodies, wishes to tell schools what they can teach, desires a 1900-mile-long border wall, wants to increase the size of police forces, thinks the government should prevent drag story hours, is trying to track young women's periods, thinks social media companies need more regulation, is banning books from libraries, and is trying to tell doctors what prescriptions they can & can't write.

I just let rip at their bullshit... You can't have a million dollar goal with a minimum wage payslip, you can't have a million dollar goal with an exploitative employer, lack of healthcare and basic human rights in a rapidly becoming a 3rd world country you utter cockwomble.
Fuckwits make me angry at times.
Then looking at their other posts... MAGAtard... that figures.
Mom: What happened to your night out?
Me: You got sick.
Mom: I did? That must be hard on you.
Me: It is, but I'm lucky. My mom taught me how to do hard things.
"I don't have to worry about politicians going after LGBT+ rights, because I'm not LGBT+."
A Texas (sigh) GOP state legislator submits a bill offering property tax relief, but that specifically excludes gay couples AND HETERO COUPLES WHERE AT LEAST ONE OF THEM IS DIVORCED.
Cue a bunch of people exclaiming "How could we have known it would come to this?"
Remember when Republicans where PRO-free market? They're not conservatives anymore, they're a full-on authoritarian party.

8/ And this is 2nd biggest problem. #WhiteSupremacy is not passive.
Whenever someone asks "Why can't Black people stay out of trouble and do better?" think about what happened in Tulsa, OK.
Black folks minding their own business, tending to their community with employment, schools, churches, banks...and White Supremacists roll up and burn it all down.
Pick a massacre from the attached and research it. You'll quickly begin to see patterns that exist to this day.
The problem isn't that ChatGPT is doing writing assignments for kids.
The problem is we're asking kids to do assignments that a fucking AI can do in their sleep.
Ask ChatGPT to put together a Pinterest board, a 3D animation, a TikTok video on the subject we're studying this week.
AI can't do that and yet kids love to.
