The East Coast has shown up, 2.4 million and counting, with massive turnouts in small towns across the country. Shoutout to the Carolinas, Georgia, and Ohio for showing up strong!
I think one of the hardest things ive faced with my disability is *knowing* I have value inherently in a way that is never reflected externally, in society etc. It takes unwavering faith in yourself that goes unrewarded & is even brought into question over and over.

Cutting $880 billion from Medicaid is going to have a lot of devastating consequences for a lot of people

Biodiversity??? 🤦🏻♀️
This very clearly shows the incompetence, ignorance, and hatefulness. If AI was used to write the memo, this very clearly shows AI isn’t where we need it to be!!
I can’t believe people bought that this administration would address any of their needs or fight corruption on their behalf.

Just saw a farmer say, "you don't have to admit you were wrong, you have to admit you were lied to, " and idk that seems like a good framing to call people in
Perfect. And so true.

Black music protesting white political terror in registers they never hear; reminiscent of ancestral spirituals embedded with instructions for runaways
All this in New Orleans... What a moment
Ooo this is a good one ☺️
Small pots of dry grass sit on a table with a sign that says: I'm not dead. This is just how I look. The caption above reads: Same for me plant, same.
Me, after a week of tree pruning & gardening, looking forward to a weekend of selling plants at Belper market & our nursery bareroot sale 😑

You don't hire autistic people so you can tell them what to do. You hire autistic people so they can tell you, wild-eyed and exhausted, what they found down the rabbit hole they stumbled down in the course of their normal work
I know our country is on fire. I know Trump is bad and is doing very bad things, and I often address those things with posts and reposts. But if I post a joke about my kid or my dog or a pleasant experience at a diner, don’t scold me for not exclusively talking politics 24/7. Please just ignore me.
