Said it before, I’ll say it again, tell people Republicans want to take away their tax refunds.

Project 2025 raises taxes on a family of four with two parents earning a combined $100,000 by $2,600, in order to fund a tax cut of over three times their combined income for someone earning $5m. x.com/SteveRattner...

Psst: Project 2025 is terrifying for a lot of reasons but also because on page 5 it calls for teachers and librarians who grant access to books that are maligned as pornography (which just means anything LGBTQ) to be registered as sex offenders. Pass it on.

Wheelchair users are not exclusively paralyzed. There isn’t reliable data for it, but many, many of us are ambulatory (can walk sometimes, either for short periods or on good days). When you accuse someone of faking because you saw a leg move, you’re not taking into account a variety of conditions.

okay it's time for a prompt post: respond to this post with a correction to a common misconception about something you know a lot about. if you feel like it, boost your response. (please use a kindly tone about it, otherwise i, your prompt curator, will get anxious.)

and the most common cause of death of pregnant and immediately postpartum people is MURDER because it's such a common time for abusers to kill. So ALREADY it's a huge additional cause of death given all these new abortion bans. Add more barriers to divorce? God help us.

this is particularly alarming in light of his intention to make abortion unobtainable - pregnant people are at increased risk for partner violence, and reproductive coercion and abuse is common among people seeking support during pregnancy.

I'm begging liberals to stop coming up with elaborate rationalizations for actions that have a very simple explanation. People seem to be struggling with the idea that the Dem Party has no interest in saving them from fascism. Put two and two together, folks. Apply Occam's Razor.

Yes, requests for non-fascists to "lower the temperature" is just a nicer way of putting the Heritage Foundation's statement that the revolution will remain bloodless if liberals allow it. It's a demand for acquiescence to the conditions of violence they created.

Seen a lot of comments like “hey Americans who support democracy, oppose political violence, and value truth, we have to take the temperature down,” and while well-intentioned, I don’t think it’ll work, because they’re not the ones raising the temperature.

Imagine looking at one million acres of land and pristine fresh water, with no motor vehicles, no development, one of only 13 dark sky sanctuaries in the world and saying…this should be a mine.

Very unfun fact: Project 2025 specifically names Minnesota's Boundary Waters Canoe Area and wants to remove its protected status and open it up to mining. This is the future Donald John Trump wants.

I love that people are holding on to the hope that Trump will go to jail. It is cute, in a sad yet endearing kind of way

A commenter on TikTok asked Imani Barbarin if there is a way to call someone stupid for not voting without being ableist. Imani: Why do you feel you need to be able to call someone stupid? If your goal is actually to get them to vote, why do you need to insult them? And do you think it will work?

I challenge Joe Biden to a shirtless arm wrestling match, winner gets the nomination!
