PSA for ppl who🩸: if you haven’t already, delete your digital period trackers. If you still want to track your cycle on your phone, there’s a free app called Stardust that doesn’t sell user data & anonymizes everything with end-to-end encryption to protect against govt subpoena

If our human rights can be thrown back onto the chopping block at the whim of a handful of people in suits, we are, by definition, not free

I always forget to take off my hospital badge when I go to class and it’s literally so embarrassing because imagine people think I leave it on to flex that I have no life

do you ever just try on a pair of jeans that makes you wonder if the manufacturer has ever seen a human woman before
