"You need to forgive yourself for everything that you are.
Sometimes you need both the dark and the light to come together to embody everything that you are."

Jane Fonda calls out the global elites for wanting to “turn the rest of us into tradwives” while building robots because “they can’t have babies”:
“They want to live forever, while they’re killing the rest of us. There’s two things: most of these guys, these tech bros and these oligarchs and billionaires, they feel that the laws that the rest of us live by don’t matter to them, including the laws of physics. Natural laws. They’re going to live forever. That’s one [thing]. The other is that because these [ageless] guys can’t have babies, they’ll create robots. That’ll be their babies. And they’ll just turn the rest of us into tradwives, who have a lot of babies too. Then they’ll take away the vote. Can you believe it? And we’re not going to stand for it. They’re not going to win, because we’re not going to stand for it. The big problem is – and this has never happened in the history of humankind – if this was happening at any other time, you could say: 'we’re going to win, in the end.' But because of the climate crisis, we don’t have that much time. You know, there’s a point where if it gets too hot. Then there’s no going back.”

Gloria will DEFINITELY be missed by our whole society. Most women haven’t a clue what she’s done for them and how much she changed things for the better for women. She utilized her life for the betterment of all people, and women were at the forefront. #GloriaSteinem
Some voices become part of history, The best we can do is carry her memory and legacy into the generations to come. Gloria Steinem was truly one of a kind. RIP. 😭

42 years ago today Tina Turner’s “What’s Love Got to Do With It” reached #1 on the Billboard Hot 100. It became her first Top 10 and first #1 of her solo career. This came after a lukewarm response to her solo career in the late 70s, with her singles and albums failing to chart. A major comeback moment.
