After 27 hours of uninterrupted, high-octane video gaming, we managed to raise a spectacular $135,205 for Planned Parenthood!

Thank you so much to everyone who joined me!

If @GovAbbott is as “anti-rape” as he claims, why doesn’t he just lead the Texas state leg to pass a law for $10k bounties on people who engage in or aid sexual assault?

Or is he opposed to that bc it’s a slippery slope of vigilantism where men could be unjustly targeted? 🤔

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Sexual assault is an abuse of power that attempts to seize sexual control over another person’s body.

Anti-choice laws are also an abuse of power that attempts to seize sexual control over people’s bodies en masse.

And that’s 1 way rape culture informs anti-choice legislation.

Not just women! Trans men & non-binary people can also menstruate.

Some women also *don’t* menstruate for many reasons, including surviving cancer that required a hysterectomy.

GOP mad at this are protecting the patriarchal idea that women are most valuable as uterus holders.

Just learned that congress members have $93 million in fossil fuel stocks. Seems like a slight conflict of interest.

Today we remember the original Rednecks: 10,000 coal miners who fought a literal army in order to earn better working conditions during the Battle of Blair Mountain 100 years ago.
Here's a little bit of info about the largest armed labor uprising in U.S. history:

Why is charging $50 for a $6 case of water during a hurricane considered price gouging, but charging $700 for a $5 vial of insulin is considered health care?

My cousin's wife had a stroke and couldn't get admitted to the hospital last night due to overcrowding. She was gone within hours. Covid is affecting health care across the board. You may not suffer from catching it, but you just may just need a hospital bed for something else

@loud_socialist So much for traditionalists.

if an unelected body of 9 people can look at a centuries-old document and claim that the document gives landlords the right to evict people in the middle of a global pandemic we should get rid of both that unelected body and that centuries-old document
