We’re not going to take away your Second Amendment rights — we’re going to prevent your kids from getting shot at school.

[Lydia Polgreen @lpolgreen]

There is something so deeply sinister about this completely manufactured fantasy of kids being given transition surgeries at school at a time when kids are quite literally being murdered at school.

you just are. there is no greater truth than that. i am. that’s it. everything on top is content that’s been created in our world that we’ve identified with. it is not who you are. you are.

You may have heard the term “Project 2025” floating around, and you may even have cracked open the 900+ page document yourself, only to see a lot of kind of bland, policy-wonk text. So let me crack through the policy-speak and tell you WTF is in this document.

The House of Representatives just passed a bill that could ban TikTok.

Not raising the minimum wage.
Not lowering healthcare costs.
Not lowering housing costs.
Not lowering childcare costs.

TikTok.

The American gvmnt will protect you from TikTok, while they watch you die from no health care,no affordable housing and no reproductive freedoms-while you work 50 hours a week, at $7.25/hr, to survive a 40yr high inflation, while witnessing a genocide, on a planet that’s burning.

Today, some of the books that shaped my life—and the lives of so many others—are being challenged by people who disagree with certain ideas or perspectives. And librarians are on the front lines, fighting every day to make the widest possible range of viewpoints, opinions, and ideas available to everyone.

President Biden on the conservative-led Supreme Court ruling that blocked his student loan forgiveness program:

"The hypocrisy of Republican elected officials is stunning. They had no problem with billions in pandemic-related loans to businesses, including hundreds of thousands and in some cases millions of dollars for their own businesses. And those loans were forgiven. But when it came to providing relief to millions of hard-working Americans, they did everything in their power to stop it."
