It’s a historic day in Missouri as @JacksonCountyMO becomes the first county in the state to adopt a conversion therapy ban. I want to thank the Legislature as well as the organizations and community members who advocated tirelessly for this change. /1
We look at everything that happened in #Mizzou sports this week and appreciate the last week of the best two months of the year for sports fans in Ten Thoughts for Monday Morning presented by Will Garrett https://t.co/8FsCnMPoR6
Republicans in North Dakota have killed a bill to provide free school lunch to kids in low-income families.
“I can understand kids going hungry, but is that really the problem of the school district? Is that the problem of the state of North Dakota?" said Sen. Mike Wobbema.
last month i called 911 on myself for feeling suicidal and the bill with insurance is over $2,000. the 15 min "psych evaluation" alone was $400. oh, and they still sent me home that night. it cost me $2k to not take my life. america's healthcare system is so fucked lol
Minnesota Governor Tim Walz has signed a law guaranteeing free breakfast and lunch for all students in the state, regardless of how much money their parents make. Tens of thousands of food-insecure kids will benefit.
My rapist said it was I who “brought out the monster in him”. Other men who’ve been inappropriate said it’s because I’m “too tempting”. Even at school a teacher said my smile was “too seductive”. How about we stop blaming women’s beauty and recognise misogyny as the problem?
Watch: I asked Chiefs linebacker and #Mizzou alum Nick Bolton if he ever thought he'd be here, part of Opening Night of the Super Bowl, when he was playing on Faurot Field just a few short years ago.
"I know it's huge for Columbia, University of Missouri."
“Parents can teach sex ed to their kids” Can parents name every STD and how they’re transmitted? Can they teach you how to identify date rape drugs? Can they define “pelvic floor”? And more importantly — would they?
It’s eating disorders awareness month. I’d love for the media coverage this year to focus on the fact that telling a child or a teenager their body is too big will absolutely increase their risk of developing an eating disorder.
Lately, I've noticed everybody looks OK until you eventually have a deep conversation with them. And then, you'll realize that, this is a sad generation of people struggling to survive through smiling faces and pretty pictures.
Fellas the hazing you went through in the locker room or in certain groups (whether it be military, frats, etc) like stripping you down or putting their junk on ya head while you sleep or any other homoerotic thing they did to you was in fact sexual assault.
