As a breast cancer survivor in the midst of breast cancer awareness month I’d just like to mention how much I *hate* the cutesy slogans “Save the Tatas” or “Save second base.”
My breasts couldn’t be saved. My friends & family didn’t give a damn about them. They just wanted me to live!
Please focus on SAVING THE WOMAN.

PLEASE EXPLAIN THIS TO ME LIKE I’M FIVE.
When someone can’t afford rent, we immediately hear:
“Stop buying fast food.”
“Skip the $7 latte.”
“Make coffee at home.”
“Cut out avocado toast.”
But when a company says it can’t afford to pay workers enough to live?
Nobody says:
“Maybe buy one fewer private jet.”
“Skip the third yacht.”
“Perhaps don’t buy another mansion this year.”
Why is the person struggling always expected to sacrifice the little things they enjoy, while the people at the top are never told to sacrifice anything?
I’m genuinely trying to understand the logic.
Bag policies for bags this small are inherently sexist and misogynistic. It is common knowledge that women are who primarily carry bags to events. The fact that the required size of bags cannot fit a tampon or a pad, is atrocious. Fix it.
Paloma Faith questions Ed Sheeran’s neutrality after he said he doesn’t like to discuss politics:
“I played a concert with [him] to raise money for Ukraine, so he wasn’t apolitical doing that. I don’t really understand why one feels more political than the other.”

So just to summarize, venues will gladly host the racist slur-loving Morgan Wallen, repeated abuser Chris Brown, and proud Nazi supporter Kanye on tour, but draw the line at free speech they dislike? Cool. Cool. Cool.
Dude got called out on social media for riding a bike without a helmet. Realizing yeah, good call, starts wearing one and then a few days later he's promoting free helmets for the public. How can anyone hate on this guy?
Funny how they're sooo concerned about little girls in public restrooms, but not at all for all the little girls imprisoned in ICE facilities suddenly becoming impregnated.
The reason presidents are limited to two terms is because the last time we had a president who was a Democratic Socialist, the people elected him four straight times..
