Some of you don't have a problem with this, but my God has a problem with you.
Everyone is worthy of love.
Everyone is worthy of belonging.
Everyone is worthy of a future.
@Jubilee4CHANGE Yes but I have only one neighbor I could even consider. We even have a key to their house because we've looked after their dog. Everyone else, no way.
I got my period halfway through a 10-hour shift.
Checked my bag. Nothing.
Asked a few girls if they had a spare pad. Nobody did.
I was already planning which hoodie to tie around my waist when one of the guys on my team overheard.
He disappeared.
15 minutes later he came back with a pharmacy bag.
“My sister said these are the right ones. If not, blame her.”
Inside:
• pads
• chocolate
• painkillers
• a bottle of water
I offered to pay him back.
He looked genuinely confused.
“For what? It’s a medical situation, not a business transaction.”
Then he walked away.
The internet keeps telling me decent men are extinct.
Meanwhile this guy treated my period like an emergency supply mission and recruited his sister as a consultant. 😭
Happy Trinity Sunday!

We are the United States of "I can't admit I was wrong":
Colonization
Genocide of First Peoples
African/Caribbean slave trade
Women & children as 2nd class citizens
Non-Whites 3/5ths personhood
Anita Hill, Monica Lewinsky, Christine Ford

Pedophile rapist president
The crazy/scary thing about the lady with the “no right hand” situation and supposedly texting while driving is that once the officer realized he was wrong, instead of just admitting it, he let his ego take over and still proceeded to give her a ticket anyway.
Some people may look at it like “it’s not that deep,” but honestly it is.
Because if someone’s ego is too big to admit they were wrong in a small situation like that, imagine how that could show up in bigger situations involving other people. Ego makes people double down instead of self-correcting, and that’s dangerous.
Abolitionist Sojourner Truth delivered her famous "Ain't I a Woman?" speech to the 1851 Women's Rights Convention on this day.
The speech challenges discrimination on the basis of race, gender, and intellectual ability, and lays bare the cruelty of slavery.
