Hate soc media. Why can’t I stay off Twitter? Feminist; mildly hotflashing; ex-Catholic; mom to 6 daughters, 1 son, two dogs and a cross-eyed, noisy cat
Claiming abortion should be “left to the states” is an extreme position. Whether my basic human rights are recognized or I’m forced into reproductive servitude for the state shouldn’t depend on the randomness of geography
@Philosophi_Cat@preachysnow @rach262003 She is a victim of abuse but the child she raised, of course her heart is broken. She will need to cry for a week and grieve her son and hopefully be open for him to find his way back.
But he is not broken and lost—he is being asshole. We used to know the difference.
@CentristBlues93 @Philosophi_Cat@preachysnow @rach262003 No, she says she doesn’t know what to do. That doesn’t mean she feels responsible for changing his mind. She can’t change his mind. Only he can choose to do that.
@Philosophi_Cat@preachysnow @rach262003 Are you kidding me with this? Her son has made a shitty choice, it’s not her responsibility to treat him with kid gloves or change his mind
@rach262003 We lost our daughter (and her siblings a sister) to different but equally corrosive internet influences. I hope one day she’ll figure it out and come back. We miss her.
@janecoaston If you want to change the world, the first step is to convince people that your way is better. “Educate yourself, idiot” isn’t terribly persuasive.
@jefftimmer Just two so far. There’s all this pressure to come up with new ones every day to keep up the neighbors. I mean, maybe they wouldn’t notice if I put some on repeat, but I would know and that’s all that matters.
@MadisonKittay Notice how he says, “all is the promotions and titles you’re going to get” instead of “earn.” These men really think ladies move up in the their careers because men hand them things based on their looks or boobs.
@AlecStapp only the style has changed. With an AR 15 people no longer need sneak attacks and multiple incidents to kill multiple people. Now they just go out in a blaze of glory
@PointMytikas@TheAtlantic@gtconway3d Trump Delusional Syndrome? I know, right? It really is. How can people still do the mental contortions required to believe the opposite of what their eyes and ears are telling them.
Astonishing.
@ChrisCoolyard@Colonel_Myway@jamesmykil In a slander suit here must be a false statement spoken as if it were true about a real person. You must also prove after the fact that the statement damaged you in a tangible way. AI Donald Trump is fictitious.
@tshirtlover23@chicagobars Roaches, tornadoes, mosquitoes, the fact that women aren’t full citizens due to their reproductive capacity, humidity, fire ants
