Can someone explain to me how it’s okay for a train that knows infants may (and will) be onboard to have NO changing tables available on the train?!? I should not have to put my baby on the bathroom floor, or change my baby on my seat with no privacy on a moving train! @Amtrak
Over 400 women have been arrested since they overturned Roe v Wade... yet not a SINGLE man has been arrested for raping children with Epstein.
It’s never been about protecting children... wake up.

My twin sister and I aged out of foster care on the same day at eighteen which sounds like it should mean we had each other and therefore were fine. What it actually means is that two people with nothing faced a system that considers its job complete the moment the clock runs out and wishes you well with the particular indifference of paperwork.
We had a social worker named Miss Charlene who was not assigned to us anymore the day we turned eighteen.
Her caseload moved on and technically so should she have. She did not move on. Showed up at the group home on our birthday with a cake and two folders. Inside each folder was everything she had spent three months quietly assembling. Apartment listings she had called ahead about. Bus routes to the community college. A list of employers who had hired former foster youth and treated them decently. Phone numbers with names attached and notes about who to ask for.
She sat with us for four hours that afternoon going through every page...
Then she wrote her personal cell number on the inside cover of both folders and said use it.
We used it. Many times. More than we probably should have.
She answered every time.
My sister is a registered nurse now.
I run a mentorship program for youth aging out of foster care.
Miss Charlene came to both of our graduations.
Front row.
Same smile both times.
The reason we're not into forgiving the people abandoning MAGA now is that you're not doing it because of the rampant racism, sexism, utter stupidity or any number of other unconscionable things, but because it's finally negatively affecting you personally. You learned nothing.
The problem with this is that we already had a guy doing this. He was cancelling tens of billions of dollars in student loans every month, he implemented the SAVE plan. Yall fumbled him SO hard over complete nonsense.
You brainwashed yourselves into thinking we were in a recession when in reality, our economy was recovering from the pandemic faster than any other country on the planet.
If a democrat wins in ‘28 they won’t take office until 2029. We still have THREE MORE YEARS of this. Such a painful and UNNECESSARY lesson we all have to suffer through.
Folks asking why don't we have this in the USA. RACISM YOU IDIOTS. IT'S FUCKING RACISM. can't have Black and Brown kids eating free/healthy, cuz our government want them so desperate & hungry that they turn to drugs and crimes, so they can then be put into the prison systems.
My mother was 18 when Black women were able to vote openly. She was 23 when Roe v. Wade passed. She was 24 when women were allowed bank accounts in their own names.
I was 29 when I lost my right to an abortion. I am 33 and on the verge of losing my right to vote.
A pox on every Trump supporter. Hell ain’t hot enough for you.
When the DOJ (under President Nixon) sued him in 1973, saying he violated the Fair Housing Act by refusing to lease to black tenants— you said “he’s not racist”…
When he had his black employees removed from his casino floors while he was present in the 80s— you said “he’s not racist”…
When he took out a full page ad in the NYT/NYDN/NYP/NYND newspapers in 1989, to call for the death penalty against the 4 black & 1 latino kids known as the ‘Central Park Five’ (who were exonerated)— you said “he’s not racist”…
When he was quoted in John O’Donnell’s 1991 book saying “Black guys counting my money! I hate it… I think that the [black] guy is lazy. And it’s probably not his fault, because laziness is a trait in blacks. It really is, I believe that. It’s not anything they can control”— you said “he’s not racist”…
When he had to pay a $200K fine in 1992 for kicking black dealers off tables at the Trump Plaza & Hotel Casino to accommodate high rollers— you said “he’s not racist”…
When he confirmed, in 1997, “the stuff O’Donnell wrote about me is probably true”— you said “he’s not racist”…
When he publicly pitched (2005) that his show ‘The Apprentice’ should do a season of blacks vs whites— you said “he’s not racist”…
When he started to slander and libel President Obama’s U.S. citizenship status in 2011, repeatedly, because his middle name is “Hussein”— you said “he’s not racist”…
When David Duke (infamous leader of the KKK) endorsed him for President in 2015, and he failed to decry the infamously vile white supremacist’s support— you said “he’s not racist”…
When he has repeatedly harassed, disparaged, and publicly admonished the likes of the Obama’s & their children, Kamala Harris, the late John Lewis, and many other black political leaders— you said “he’s not racist”…

He has 5+ decades of being racist PUBLICLY and you still refuse to acknowledge that Donald Trump is and always has been a racist.
Him posting an Ai generated video depicting Michelle & Barack Obama as apes (a repugnant racial trope, that is as old as this country itself, used to disparage black Americans) on HIS SOCIAL MEDIA ACCOUNT, is yet another example of why he is the embodiment of “when someone shows you who they are, believe them”
This isn’t debatable. He is despicable. He has zero class as a human being. And you’re just as disgusting as him if you try to gaslight us into believing his abhorrent post was anything other than what he meant it to be: a racist depiction of a former POTUS/First Lady.
@Needle_of_Arya@amyfromatown Newsom has a whole ass team talking shit on Trump 24/7
Meanwhile Crockett uses her legislative platform to do the exact same thing ON THE RECORD yet she’s too “hyper partisan” for the people
“Why are folks getting dumber?” Because they don’t read. “Why aren’t men as romantic & poetic as they used to be?” Because they don’t read. “Why are people so vulnerable to propaganda?” “Why is everyone a conspiracy theorist?” Because they don’t read. Because they don’t read.
@khaotic_aquarii@BrooklynsOwn90 Looking at the replies to you, and I’m not surprised- they get angry at facts and go straight to racism and stereotypes. So sad, they have no character growth.😮💨
@TheEcho13 I recently bought my husband his dream truck, he also bought me my dream engagement ring when he proposed. We are very happy because listening and learning what your partner loves, is simple when you actually love them.
there’s this phone commercial promoting gemini AI that drives me nuts every time i see it bc the person is asking AI what flowers at this flower shop go well together instead of…….just asking the fucking florist??? whose entire profession and craft is about the flowers????
Elon has received more government aid than any one person you know in need of snap, wic, housing, or daycare subsidies. The difference is, while your neighbors still struggle with multiple jobs, he’s becoming more wealthy. Someone’s abusing the system, but it ain’t poor folk.
