People on the wrong side of partisan politics deserve access to the church and to worship God but they aren't entitled to do so without discomfort. And that's true for people on the right side of partisan politics too.
The 80s, man.
I would like to note that I went to a rural, small-town school in the Upper Midwest, not the sort of prep school one might expect from the way my parents dressed me (I was not allowed to choose my own clothes for school until later that year).
A 13 year old girl with short dark hair and large glasses sits straight in a chair, surrounded by others, her hands on her knees. She is wearing a light colored shirt with a sweater loosely knotted around her next and dark pin-striped pants. She is smiling.
My junior high yearbook is on Ancestry now.
This is me in Debate Club.
Pretty sure it’s a “Why not both?” situation
Then argue about whether it was necessary or useful to campaign with them but that’s entirely different than “campaigning as a Republican” because I can assure you that actual Republicans didn’t see her as one.
I am older than you and I loathed Dick Cheney plenty. But I’m afraid that a large swath of this country did not, and unfortunately their votes are counted just the same as ours.
I don’t normally say things like this to strangers but are you thick? The point was that even someone whose politics were otherwise in line with T’s and diametrically opposed to hers still thought she was a better choice than him. And she wanted someone NOT Hegseth running the military.
It’s wild. I stayed in a hotel nearby for several days and my window opened up to it too, and it just wasn’t very noisy at all.
I feel like *just not saying anything* is very underrated.
No. I once posted about the stress and worry and grief I had over my disabled newborn, and was told I should be grateful she was alive and doing well.
I had risked my own life to get her born safely, and this person knew it. It’s like they can’t help themselves.
Again: the gun you keep in the home for “protection” increases your risk of homicide by 3-fold, of suicide by 5-fold, and for men, risk of suicide more than 10-fold
The second you bring a gun into the home you’ve dramatically increased the risk of death for your family 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
If this is 1870s, they aren’t even close.
The Ingalls women were very competent sewers so there isn’t an issue with them being out of fashion - they were very capable of remaking their clothes and hats into something that looked appropriate, and would have done so.
The fashion was for smaller hats worn on piled up hair. For sun protection a face net was worn, or slat or corded bonnets. Those don’t work well with cameras, though, so you get these ridiculous things.
Those bonnets are nothing like women wore in this time period outside of they are worn on the head.
I think there is nothing wrong with being a little more formal. I prefer when children and strangers call me Mrs P or Ms P, at least to start. I think you should dress nicely to eat out or fly on a plane.
Car windows intact!
There was literally a pangolin that flew combat sorties with the CIA in a dirty war in Laos that then died after drinking too much gin, so there’s at least one pangolin whose record is morally ambiguous
In a first last month, renewables supplied more power to the U.S. than natural gas, a milestone in the shift to clean energy.
Black women calculating orbits, Deaf students with damaged vestibular systems. Fuck, it's like this stuff is so fucking hard we need EVERYBODY.
Imagine if we could find a way to let everybody do their best all at the same time?
Cheers to the Gallaudet 11. Cheers to us all.
Hail the size of large marbles to ping pong balls looking like snow drifting across a green lawn with a driveway and building in the background.
Hail. I’m afraid to look at my car.
went to check out the techno rave outside Parliament and I don't think I have the data allowance to share a video from it but let me tell you: there sure is a techno rave outside Parliament right now, celebrating Orban getting ousted
It's funny how the people who actually know him aren't defending him, but randos on the internet are all "due process! where's the evidence!!"
And by funny I mean not amusing in the slightest. You folks are the reason women don't report.
The number of times I have seen you have to post this today is alarming, and I even took a long nap this afternoon.
I didn’t report my rape because I didn’t think anyone would believe me and I blamed myself for getting drunk at a party. It didn’t matter that I should have been safe with these young men I’d known since childhood, that I’d said no many times.
35 years later, a bunch of y’all are proving me right.
on a scale of 1 to 100, my support for democracy and protecting everyone's right to vote is 99. but i admit it used to be 100 before reading some of your tweets
My father taught me that a robust defense is the best way to know you convict the correct person and they stay in jail. He’d been asked to take on a horrific child abuse case of kids my age and I couldn’t understand how he could do it. It made sense even when I was ten.
