@ThePlumLineGS I was one of them. I served for 6 years in an appointed position on a Virginia city school board. Our city council was recently taken over by right wing loonies tho so I imagine people are going to push for elected here now too so our SB doesn't get destroyed.
@ThePlumLineGS Elected boards can help that but getting good people elected to the school board means you now have to find people who not only want to serve in this awful climate but who are willing to run for election. A lot of people who want to serve don't want that. Especially these days.
@rgay It costs $100 to take my three kids to the movies and buy snacks. When they were little we’d go every couple of weeks in the summer. Now we’re lucky if it’s twice a year.
@notcapnamerica I will roast white women all day long from the time I wake up in the morning until I go to bed at night and I am a white woman we are ridiculous people.
@Leopardonbackup@_princebambi@nkulw Middle aged lesbian here and I remember well when queer was a slur but I’ll be damned if a straight woman, a transphobe at that, is gonna tell me what I can call myself. It’s our word now. We can do what we want with it.
@clhubes I love your tweets and I’ll miss you if you go. Your comments about young motherhood make me laugh and remind me of when mine were babes. People are assholes. Congrats and best of luck with the new baby!
@bluevirginia@_Anders1 After 2008 it became “us vs them” and it just intensified with social media and so-called regular republicans collectively going all in on white nationalism.
@clhubes It’s like this wirh the memories you think will scar them too like it’s never when mommy lost her shit when they wouldn’t get in the car to go school it’s when their favorite happy meal hello kitty that you never knew they even owned got thrown away.
@stevanzetti@EFJBGC they get suspended while actual terrorists on this site are free to do whatever they want. fucking monstrous. also i've so enjoyed following your work and am grateful for your voice and @efjbgc2 for helping protect our communities. 💪♥️🏳️🌈
@RexChapman She doesn’t care what they think about her and men like that can’t stand that. They hate being dismissed. women know nothing angers some men more than when you say lol yeah I’m not listening to you anymore. Another reason those men super hate lesbians. Cause we extra don’t care.
