As a woman I am extremely aware the only reason I have rights is because women before me got mouthy, organized, and made herself inconvenient. Thats why I see women who uphold the patriarchy as traitors
I genuinely don’t understand how we are supposed to casually process that a glacier literally collapsed in Nepal, erasing 19 bridges and killing over 600 people, because the planet is too hot. And instead of stopping it, billionaires are building more data centres. It is completely psychotic.
"What I do every game is I go to the Team Store and I purchase kid's t-shirts and I take the tags off and I go upstairs to the top and I try to find those kids that don't have a shirt." ❤️👕

Angie Nixon: “Some people say oh I lack decorum, I lack professionalism. What good is decorum and professionalism when democracy is literally being attacked?

Emmett Till would have been 85 today. Born in Chicago, he was only 14 years old when he was brutally murdered in Mississippi. His mother, Mamie Till-Mobley, insisted on an open casket so the world could see what had been done to her son. That act of courage helped ignite the civil rights movement.
Erin Brockovich on data centers: “You’re pushing people too far at this point. You’re taking their water. Their air is jeopardized. Their land is jeopardized. Their sanctuary is jeopardized. Their wildlife is jeopardized. The trees, the rivers, the creeks, the birds, all of it”
This is what we thought we were getting when Dylan Raiola committed to Nebraska. Real bummer that he turned into a fatty with the slowest feet of any quarterback I've ever seen.
Did you know that when a male surgeon dies they just have his wife with no medical training take over and do all the surgeries? And if she's isn't available or doesn't exist, the job goes to his sister.
