My friend pays $1,940/month for daycare.
For one child.
That’s more than her mortgage was five years ago.
The daycare workers make $16/hour.
They still buy supplies with their own money.
The center has a waiting list 11 months long.
She did the math.
If she quits her job, they lose health insurance.
If she keeps working, most of her paycheck disappears into childcare.
So every morning she drops off her kid to go work mostly to afford dropping off her kid.
We say people aren’t having enough children.
Then we make raising one financially suicidal.

WE ARE SO BACK
people say "women are not paid less, they just pick empathy careers." ok.!!! but who decided nursing and teaching are worth less? like we will pay a sales guy 150k to move numbers around, but pay a nurse pennies to literally keep people alive, or give a teacher crumbs and wonder why future generations are failing every test. it is not that empathy based work is less valuable it is that we’ve normalized underpaying it because it’s "women’s work."

I cannot begin to tell you the number of times I have watched this video of a kid with his STUNT POODLE.
The dog is perfection and this vid is adorably funny!
🥰🥰
The Corgi was the one leading them home
The German Shepherd was injured
The dogs kept a protective formation around the German Shepherd
The Corgi stopped often to make sure they were still okay
It took them 2 days to get home
They are neighbourhood friends
I’m going to cry😭😭😭
They’re not “getting pregnant” they’re being RAPED. ICE officers are separating girls from their families and taking them to separate facilities so they can rape them. This is the “law and order” the Trump administration is using our money to fund.
People think I’m being alarmist when I say they are trying to make you dumb. They feel entitled to control how and to what extent you can access knowledge. They send their kids to tech-free schools while ensuring public school kids can’t read. They want you illiterate.
an educator made a thread about how they noticed boys, from an early age, subconsciously expect to be rewarded even after bad behavior. Negative consequences often confuse and anger them and because it’s not something they ever expect to happen. That’s a lot of men in a nutshell….
Workplace sexual harassment - 78% men
Violent crime - 92% men
Domestic Violence - 94%
Rape - 96% men
Pedophilia - 98% men
Found with child porn- 99% men
Gun violence - 98% men
Mass shootings - 98% men
AND YOU ASK US WHY WE HATE MEN LMAO
“It’s just locker room talk”.
We know. That’s the damn problem.
It’s always locker room talk.
It’s always rape jokes.
It’s always “boys will by boys”.
It’s never “I’m sorry.”
It’s never “that was disrespectful”.
It’s never respectful of women .
Men are such simps they'll laugh along with lame sexist jokes told by a sex pest rather than risk making any of the other men uncomfortable by confronting them about it. The vibe of every man-only hang is determined by the biggest pig in the room.
