all i can say is live. you have to live. if you’re trans, queer, a woman, bipoc, disabled, an immigrant: you must live. we have to support each other. we have to be visible and loud if and when we can. and above all else we have to live
is our side allowed to call for a recount, or only their side ?? because i’m sorry, but absentee ballots not being sent out, ballots being burned, signature verification throwing out votes, bomb threats at polling places. this is voter suppression, plain and simple.
Thread:
1/ Women in the U.S., I need you to gently set aside your grief for a second and look at me. It's time to operate from a place of planning.

Election Day Eve Reminder: you’re closer to being homeless than you are to being a billionaire. Abortion care doesn’t only benefit those seeking to terminate a pregnancy. You aren’t rich enough to benefit frm any of Trump’s policies. Immigration isn’t crushing you. Capitalism is.

the amount of women expressing “i cannot date someone who votes for trump” and the amount of men responding “we should be able to disagree on things” illustrates these women’s point quite well

"Gisèle Pelicot tells mass rape trial ‘it’s not for us to have shame – it’s for them’". I genuinely think that single-handedly, this woman has done more for us than all men put together in history. She's stood up & made MEN confront and watch THEIR rapes. She's a fucking SAINT.
As a kid, I wondered how Germans allow the Holocaust to happen. In the past year I have heard why:
“I am too busy”

“Both sides are bad”
“Protesting won’t do anything”
“It’s not my issue to speak about”
“I don’t want to lose my friends”
