We talk a lot about how democracy is on the ballot this election, but that ignores some uncomfortable truths. This isn’t the first time in our history that has happened. When it has happened, the majority of white voters do not vote for democracy. #Midterms2022#democracy
We can’t have an intellectually honest conversation about the “future of the Republic” without acknowledging one fact that everyone seems to overlook. And if you aren’t going to say it, then I can’t take your “Democracy-is-on-the-ballot” opinion piece seriously.
A thread.
@MiracleForMax@tiktok_us@Twitter@nationwidekids A tweet and a share is the least anyone can do. You’re putting in all the hard work. Good luck to you and your family! Hoping for many more videos of Max’s beautiful smile and contagious laughter! 💖
This mom’s efforts to save her son and advance research that can help countless other families is inspiring. I follow on @tiktok_us and am happy to see she made the jump to @Twitter too. Follow to support their search for a cure. #healthcare#donate@nationwidekids#Miracle
Hi! I'm Max. I have TBCD, which paralyzes most kids completely by 4 years old. The avg lifespan is under 5. We're funding research at @nationwidekids to find a treatment. We need an estimated $2 million to get to clinicals. Please help? https://t.co/ydoMAfthgH
I've been covering bad parts of the internet for long time now.
For years, there was one site extremist researchers warned me not to cover because publicizing it would be dangerous.
But it's time people know KiwiFarms—and how they're chasing political enemies around the world.
Today in PA Sen news...Oz attacked Fetterman for having two convicted murderers on his staff, calling for him to fire them. They are Lee and Dennis Horton, brothers whose convictions were widely criticized and who ultimately were granted clemency by the Board of Pardons 5-0.
Tube on strike, I dawdled to Paddington on Friday. Passing the old wrought iron sign for Pizza Express, I was reminded of an event 30+ years ago, when I got caught up in a drama that resulted in a divorce, two marriages and many changed lives.
It began with a heart attack 🧵
I cannot think of anything that helps women’s rights less than pinning the blame on trans women. They face so much violence and scrutiny as is. Leave them alone and focus on the real war on women. It’s happening in the courts and legislatures around this country.
Same. It’s like when straight conservative people said gay marriage threatened the sanctity of their marriage. Being more inclusive of others doesn’t threaten my personhood. If anything, it makes mine better. #TransRightsAreHumanRights
The far right doesn’t care about being pro-life. They are pro-control of every group that isn’t them. These tragedies are an acceptable price for them to maintain their control because they don’t think the rules will apply to them so they’ll never have to pay it.
For anyone needing good news in their timelines, here it is. I think I’m gonna be done with the internet now so I can pretend nothing bad will happen in the world for the rest of the day. It will all still be there tomorrow.
If you are straight and cisgendered, over the next few years you may start seeing and hearing LGBTQ people a lot less.
It may be very gradual and subtle, and therefore hard for you to notice.
So, I'm going to say now, while you can still see and hear me- this was deliberate.
When I say I’m scared about what a post-Roe world will look like, this is just one part of it. You don’t have to need an abortion for this ruling to radically change your quality of life. It’s not about being #ProLife, it’s about #control
Mitch McConnell said he will resign if Republicans don't win back the Senate in November. This is a buy one get one free situation for Pennsylvanians. We get to vote in John Fetterman, while we force Mitch to resign.
Don't walk, RUN with me to that voting booth, PA!
