This tweet from @katiehahnbooks, which I saw on Reddit this morning, has inspired me to bullshit an entire universe of craft-themed lesbian rom-coms in which no one is struggling to come out or hating themselves. Let's begin. TMTMTM.

Turtles are so cool. Some guy just out walking around but he could go in his home any second. A shy king

Signed into Netflix for the first time in ages and after reading only queer books for like 2 months I had a moment of genuine surprise that everything was so aggressively heterosexual.

What if instead of stepping outside my comfort zone, I step into an even comfier zone. Perhaps take a nap in a large fluffy dinner roll.

Teachers often don't know what to do to help #ADHD kids until they start asking the right questions. I have ADHD and I'm a teacher. I wrote a list of 17 questions for parents to ask in school meetings. These ?s will help the teacher help your kid ->

@PaulaSimone I’ve always “joked” that I need one of those vests for myself.

The special ADHD state where you are simultaneously completely exhausted and so restless and fidgety you want to rip your skin off and escape the constraints of this corporeal form. ✨☠️

American capitalism isn’t producing what we NEED. It has ppl laboring as McKinsey consultants & making 68 flavors of Oreos toiling & bringing ppl a single milkshake for Uber Eats while healthcare & rent are inaccessible & while we can’t find lifeguards, baby formula or tampons.

[Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN]

Congress can change the number of justices on the Supreme Court at any time, and has done so 7 times throughout history.

Since 1869, the last time the court was expanded, the U.S. population has grown by over 800%, yet the court has stayed stagnant at 9 justices.

SCOTUS this week:

- Only states can regulate abortion
- States can’t regulate firearms
- The Environmental Protection Agency can’t protect the environment
- States have power over Indian Country
- Miranda rights aren’t *really* necessary

What an unmitigated disaster.

Slavery, segregation, voting rights, gerrymandering and abortion all have one thing in common:

“States rights.”

Since the first draft of the constitution, “Leave it up to the states” has been code for “Leave it up to the racists.”

Remember when Don’t Say Gay was being passed, and Republicans tried so hard to frame it as a bill prohibiting sex-ed.

Well the law goes into effect in 2 days, and teachers are literally being ordered to scrape off rainbow safe-space stickers from their classroom doors.
