I sneezed in a taxi yesterday & the driver rolled down his window even though we both knew what he really wanted to do was stop the car, force me out of it with a pistol, put a bullet in me & push me & the car into the river then run away towards a better future in the mountains

An older woman in front of me demanded her drink get remade because her barista was Asian.

When I tried to inform her how irrational that request was, she turned and sneered, “are YOU Chinese?”

I replied, “no, but your ugly-ass knockoff purse is.”

Shut your racist asses up.

Body positivity without fat people is just a reiteration of the status quo, aka a bunch of thin people pretending that them learning to love their bodies in a society that already has them as the default is somehow revolutionary.

[Janet @Janet12358W]

Siding with and supporting a war criminal is not ‘being kind to everyone’. It is being kind to white men who profit from killing people of colour in the Global South.

[Janet @Janet12358W]

Did you know: Every single thin person who uses “I’m just concerned about your health” to harass and admonish fat people has gone to the Bad Place. Every. Single. One. Yay!

Doing elaborate gender reveals for your unborn child is -432 points. It is also, objectively speaking, incredibly annoying.

[Russell Howard @russellhoward]

Boris Johnson or Jeremy Corbyn... is that really the best this country has to offer? #TheRussellHowardHour is back tonight at 10pm on Sky One.

[Russell Howard @russellhoward]

A staggering level of disrespect from Jacob Rees-Mogg #Grenfell

[Stephen King @StephenKing]

Donald Trump and Fucko the Clown: Basically no difference.

What I noticed about that conference table pic? Only one woman in the room, and not a single person of color. If I want to look at an old white guy, I’ll use the bathroom mirror.

[NHS Million @NHSMillion]

We understand that 17.4 million people voted to leave

But all #66Million of us will be impacted by medicine and staff shortages across our NHS

This includes 14 million children who have no choice but to face the consequences

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Trump Tower used as a piggy bank was enough.

10 incidents of obstruction of justice was enough.

Permanently separating children & parents for profit was enough.

Detention camps were enough.

Muslim ban was enough.

Trans servicemember ban was enough.

Ukraine is beyond enough.

@mermhart I was a bit peckish in my English lesson so I took out a chocolate roll. To disguise the fact that I was eating, I covered my mouth with my hand. Four hours later I looked in the mirror to find that I had chocolate visibly hanging from my nostrils and smeared around my mouth🤦🏼‍♀️

[Orlaith @OatesOrlaith]

@mermhart I can’t watch but I can’t not watch. It’s like Boris Johnson

[Orlaith @OatesOrlaith]

@mermhart GARY! WELCOME TO THAILAND

‘Is it not racist to say these things?’ — Democrat @RepSwalwell was called ‘unparliamentary’ by Republican colleagues when he listed all of the president’s past racist comments on the House floor

[NowThis Impact @nowthisimpact]

Democrat @RepCummings tore into the sec of DHS over the conditions that children have been subjected to in detention camps

[Michelle Obama @MichelleObama]

What truly makes our country great is its diversity. I’ve seen that beauty in so many ways over the years. Whether we are born here or seek refuge here, there’s a place for us all. We must remember it’s not my America or your America. It’s our America.
