“Transgender operations on illegal aliens in prison” is the greatest dog whistle ever uttered

Bravo.

The most unbelievable part about this video.

[CALL TO ACTIVISM @CalltoActivism]

This is the final photograph of Phillip Herron 34, crying in his car, literally minutes before taking his own life.

He was a single Dad with three kids, struggling with crushing debt of over $20,000 and was desperately waiting for a Payday loan he'd applied for. But it was paid in arrears, with a 5 week wait time.

That wait drove him even deeper into debt, and when he died he had $4.61 in his bank account and clearly couldn't see any other way out.

Like a lot of people, especially men, he kept all of this to himself, nobody else knew how bad things were getting. This poor man even had to tell his children that Santa Claus wouldn’t come this year, and in his suicide note he wrote that they'd be better off if he wasn't around any more.

And now he isn't.

We need to talk more. We need to be kinder. And we need to be a country that helps each other when we need it the most.

RIP ❤️

Every philosophy has a supporting theology. If your philosophy is hatred, what can possibly be your theology.

Hi friends 👋🏽
Remember that your expectations are often the thing that determines how you feel about any given situation. If you expect life to be easy you’ll be sad when it’s not, if you expect people to never let you down you’ll be distraught when they do, if you expect this tweet to

My husband and I committed to never yelling at our kids. Then we had kids.

Our ancestors weren’t slaves. They were enslaved. There is a DIFFERENCE. Whoever they were before that journey across the Atlantic can only be known as we uncover our true history.

On this Flag Day, we remember the time Barack Obama didn't wear a flag pin, the worst scandal in presidential history.

@RickWarren I’m reading some of these hateful comments & my mind is blown.

Church people can be some of the meanest cusses in the world.

Especially when they’re debating the Bible.

Talk about waking contradictions.

Friday, June 9 will be a remote-instruction day for the students who were scheduled to be at our schools.

Additionally, it will be another remote-work day for staff—including school-based, district, and central staff.

People make fun of Lizzo on the internet all day. She tells yall she eats well and works out and that’s just her body. And still, ppl crack insidious fat jokes. But as soon as a woman dies from plastic surgery those very ppl talk about “love yourself ladies” “just workout” STFU

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

We discover we are children of God at the moment we discover we are brothers and sisters, children of the same Father. This is why it is essential to be part of a journeying community. No one goes to the Lord alone.

@KevOnStage I'm cry laughing at this. Love this!
