Donald Trump is dragging the United States into a war the American people do not want. Let me be clear: I am opposed to a regime-change war in Iran, and our troops are being put in harm’s way for the sake of Trump’s war of choice.

You might think what’s happening in Kansas doesn’t affect you because you’re not trans, but the same government telling us you need ID to vote, is showing us how easy it is for them to take our ID. Wake up.
A conversation with a man:
Me: All men
Him: Not all men
Me: okay. You have a daughter, right? Would you be comfortable with her going to a party with a bunch of other girls, with no boys present?
Him: yes (without hesitation)
Me: cool. Would you be comfortable with her going to a party with a bunch of boys, with no girls present.
Him: no (without hesitation)
Me: why?
Him: Cause there will be at least 2-3 boys who are a problem.
Me: cool. So if those 2-3 boys do something horrible, will the other boys step in? Say something? Tell someone?
Him: (hesitates)....
Me: exactly. All men.
I didn’t call my husband crying.
I called him angry.
It was 11:47 PM. I was sitting on the kitchen floor, laptop open, staring at an email that said my contract wasn’t being renewed. Just like that. Two years of overtime, weekends, skipped holidays — gone in one paragraph.
When he answered, I didn’t even say hello. “I lost my job.”
Silence. Not the awkward kind. The steady kind.
He said, “Okay. I’m coming home.”
He was on a night shift. I told him not to. I said I didn’t want him to risk it. I said I was fine.
He said, “You’re not.”
Twenty minutes later, I heard the door.
He didn’t try to fix it. Didn’t start giving solutions. Didn’t say, “You’ll find something better.” Didn’t minimize it.
He just sat on the floor with me.
He ordered food because he knew I hadn’t eaten. He closed my laptop because he knew I’d keep rereading the email. He made a list the next morning not of jobs for me but of bills he could cover alone “for as long as it takes.”
The next week, I found out he had quietly moved money from his personal savings into our joint account.
Not because I asked.
Because he anticipated.
Months later, when I apologized for being “a burden,” he looked genuinely confused.
“We’re married,” he said. “There is no yours and mine when things fall apart. There’s just us.”
That’s when I understood something about marriage.
It’s not about who plans the best anniversary or posts the sweetest captions.
It’s about who sits on the kitchen floor with you when your world collapses.
It’s about who absorbs your panic without adding their own.
It’s about who turns “your problem” into “our plan.”
Marriage isn’t loud.
It’s steady.
And when it’s real, you don’t have to beg someone to show up.
They already grabbed their keys.
A gentle reminder that Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio - a Black, Caribbean, sexually fluid man who up to 10 years ago was a member of the working class gainfully employed as a bagger at a grocery story - now has the Grammy Album Of The Year. The limit simply does not exist. 🏆✨
Im BEGGING y’all: please just give money.
Foodbanks are one charity where money goes a LONG ASS WAY because they get subsidized prices for the food they purchase.
I only raised $3K by myself and it was enough for almost 11,000 full MEALS they told me.
Donate MONEY.
Today, the White House Press Secretary told the country that this ridiculous damn ballroom is “the president’s main priority”…not reopening the government, not lowering the cost of groceries, not lowering the cost of housing, not lowering the cost of healthcare….building a ballroom.
This is why you can never really play with Shonda Rhimes’s name and legacy 😭 having an entire block dedicated to your THREE PRIMETIME SHOWS and then airing back to back is absolutely fucking iconic. Like I’m not playing when I say we may never see this ever again
NEW: California will be the first state in the nation to sell its own insulin.
It will be $11.
No Big Pharma price gouging.
Simple, affordable healthcare. As it should be.
Growing up in the 90s & early 2000s they wanted us to read, drink milk, play outside, just say no to drugs, reduce, reuse, recycle. Ms. Frizzle was our secondary teacher and Captain Planet was considered a hero. That’s the world I grew up in, so seeing where we are now is wild.
this was 49 years ago... all these racist white kids in this video are 55-75 today. they run the country, run the judicial system, are police chiefs, etc. let that marinate bro.
THIS is why we need feminism. Misogyny is so dangerous. When you don't view women and girls as people, it results their abuse for your own benefit. How can you look at a young girl (who should be in school) and see a wife? A baby should not be raising babies. So so disgusting.
Missing on paycheck and immediately needing to go to a food bank says a lot, and we should pause and focus on that. This is a very bad sign as to what’s really going on in this economy. People are down bad.
