y'know what sucks. The fact that I love all my friends and want to spend a lot of time with them, I genuinely think about them daily but for the past few months depression has absolutely sapped me of all energy to connect with people and made me lose any feeling of self-worth
A college swimmer caught red-handed assaulting an unconscious girl behind a dumpster gets sentenced to just 3 months in jail because the judge "didn't want to ruin his Olympic potential." Once again, a man's hypothetical career is worth more than a woman's actual life.
FTP: LAPD killed her dog. He was wearing his Knicks jersey.
His name was Jameson. A golden doodle. One of the sweetest, most gentle breeds alive.
A neighbor called a noise complaint. That's it.
20+ officers showed up. Then a helicopter. For a noise complaint in an apartment complex.
And they shot Jameson dead. In front of his owner. In front of her child.
No warning. No de-escalation. Nothing.
The media is barely covering this. No headlines. No outrage.
Like it never happened.
If this was your dog... your child watching... how would you feel?
Jameson deserved better. That little boy deserved better. His mama deserved better.
De Niro: I hate to say it, but loving our country is starting to sound like an abused spouse saying they love their abuser.
I can’t love a country that starts stupid and inhumane wars, killing thousands of innocents and indirectly causing the deaths and suffering of millions more.
I can’t love a country that takes healthcare away from millions of people and uses that money to enrich their pals in the Trump-Epstein class.
I can’t love a country that sends out masked militias to shoot citizens in the streets, torture our neighbors, and separate families.
I can’t love a country that’s led by a racist, misogynist, xenophobic tyrant.
And let me just say it: I can’t love a country that’s led by Donald Trump and his sycophant Congress.
the fun part about this is he gets to take the makeup and stuff off because it's all a big joke to them
meanwhile actual trans people get beaten and murdered
Calm yourself my love. No teenage girls are having their healthy breasts removed, just teenage boys are having their gynaecomastia resolved so they can live in freedom in their bodies.
Also - BTW - puberty blockers prevent the need for top surgery - FYI 😘
Oh and well done to @LushLtd for recognising all teens.
ICE took a 31 y/o Haitian asylum-seeker into custody, drove her 30 miles away to a Pittsburgh office, put an ankle monitor on her, then sent her out the front door with no way to get anywhere or contact her family.
She froze to death at a bus stop. It's now ruled a homicide.
Just found out my parents are right-wing and racist. What a great day to be alive. (And no, I don’t share a single one of their values).
When I confronted them and told them to actually read up on who they’re voting for, they hit me with the classic: "Oh, it’s just the media painting them in a bad light! Read their manifesto!"
I did read it. It’s horrific.
The education gap in this house is loud. I’m currently working on my bachelor's and constantly trying to learn, while my parents have the bare minimum school degree and zero interest in looking past their own echo chamber.
Israel just kidnapped a 20yr old Palestinian student, taking her hostage. She won’t be called a hostage & she won’t be reported on in the US bc she’s Palestinian.
Had Palestinian forces took an Israeli civilian hostage — would be front page news in every mainstream media outlet.
