@KassandraSeven If we incentivized nursing the same way we sometimes do with teaching, and eliminated student loan debt, we could encourage more students to take that path.

Progressives are talking fullscale societal and governmental reprioritization—but not overnight. We have time to plan.

@KassandraSeven Freely available mental healthcare would strengthen the workforce, increase academic achievement, help stabilize families and communities, and generally increase quality of life for all citizens.

.@realDonaldTrump has now stolen an additional 3.8 billion from our military to pay for his useless border wall. That's why I reintroduced my bipartisan resolution today (which passed a Dem House & GOP Senate) to terminate the President’s sham emergency declaration at the border.

Satire isn't meant to be viewed uncritically. Fake news isn't just mocking Republicans; it's satirizing uncritical media, and because of that, it's often more reliable than the media, journalists, and pundits being satirized. Want a better narrative? Demand better media.

south park was bad for politics but i think it goes without saying that letting jon stewart et al provide the prevailing non-right-wing commentary for ~10 years, and have it be merely "boy conservatives are stupid huh," probably fucked us more in the end (and they're still at it)

@saraschaefer1 I agree with your point, but as someone who spends an inordinate amount of time going through a mental Rolodex trying to guess the names of people I've met a dozen times before: We should all just have nametags all the time.

I'm just saying, I searched for "Austen" and @netflix threw me "The Last Jedi". #reylo #starwars #iseewhatyoudidthere

Hell yeah, we're going to take your AR-15. If it's a weapon that was designed to kill people on the battlefield, we're going to buy it back.

Stop calling grown women “girls.” It’s patronizing and condescending.

[Kuiper Belle @KuiperBelle]

@_celia_bedelia_ Yes, please. I work with people who call me "little girl" all the time. I can call myself a girl, but everyone else needs to knock it the fuck off.

JJ and Kathy: “please be in our movie”
Adam: “nah, I hate blockbuster shit”
JJ and Kathy: “look, a boy from a broken home who can’t articulate his feelings, suffering from moral injury, & the story is family drama and his clear arc back to the light and love”
Adam: “ok u got me”
