I hate grief. I hate the way it washes over you in waves. I hate the way it sneaks up on you when you least expect it. I hate the way it steals your motivation. I hate all the little ways it exhausts you.

Florida Bill Would Shield DeSantis’s Travel Records nytimes.com/2023/03/24/us/poli (Me: Florida wants to keep DeSantis trips secret but wants to "out" your child if he/she says gay, record the days of your child's period.., wants a list of all the books in your library...?)

Utah bans under-18s from using social media unless parents consent theguardian.com/us-news/2023/m (Me: what will they come for next? Only state approved underwear, children may not talk to each other unless a parent is present, under 18 cannot use library without parent present..?)

From yachts to foreign reserves, there is a mountain of wealth the EU plans to seize to pay for Ukraine's reconstruction - but doing so in a legal manner is easier said than done, Swedish career diplomat Anders Ahnlid tells AFP. u.afp.com/i8sN

After all of this, the Conservatives still don't even know the difference between doing drag and being trans.

The #GOP wants to keep their base (and everyone else) poor, sick and stupid. This goes under the ‘keep them stupid’ and ‘keep them poor’ category. No sex education means the girls are thrown into motherhood early (without the option of abortion) causing them to also be tethered to poverty.

I’m going to guess this guy’s problem with drag has a lot less to do with how women feel and a lot more to do with his narrow thoughts about how people express themselves.

Republicans will continue to use irrelevant and divisive rhetoric to try and quiet us. A united working class would battle increasing corporate monopolization.

Trump Plays the Anti Semitic Card - The rise of the far right that's occurred alongside the MAGA movement has led to the mainstreaming of antisemitism in this country. @dougporter506 open.substack.com/pub/dougport #hate #politics #DomesticTerrorists

I am a big fan of . Bought a dining room table from them two weeks ago. It arrived with a big gauge in it from shipping. Today we received a whole new table. Wow!

They want to end public education. Some people can’t get their heads around that bc it seems too big (the way the fall of Roe seemed impossible to some), but they plan to destroy public ed entirely. Public education was the result of struggle. It has remained a site of struggle.

Researchers estimate that if the top 1% of Americans paid the full amount of taxes they owed, it would raise $175 billion a year.

That’s just UNPAID taxes. Not new or higher taxes.

How about we make them pay their fair share and use the money to invest in the American people?
