This is actually hysterical. I can’t remember the last time we had to market a genocide to the people being genocided.

We are the indigenous people of Jack Dorsey. Elon Musk is our coloniser and we will not leave this land.
If people dislike Elon Musk so much, why do they still use the platform he owns?

I’m sharing this because I feel like I’ve seen people in relationships like this and I just want them to know they’re not crazy. This is SICKENING. I haven’t been watching this season but this should be stopped and seen to.

You can't give someone a perspective they don't yet have the capacity, bandwidth, or experience to understand/hold. Sometimes, it's not that they disagree with you. They simply haven't evolved in that direction enough to see what you see.

Regarding this “maintenance” culture, I stood firm against it this year I only do “the big 3/4” when I have an occasion coming up. Travel, birthdays, etc Stopped the monthly thing because it stopped making sense lol. Why am I “unkempt” because I didn’t fix nails and lashes?

Most people in France can't afford housing. They didn't blame immigrants, or transgender people, or video games, or avocado toast. They blame the government. Because that's who's responsible. That's always who's responsible.

I just refuse to lay down and die like the world wants us to. If something awful can happen, so can something amazing. The pendulum always swings.
I wish positivity was more recognized as a quality of resilience. People always think I am naive, sheltered or just naturally optimistic, but it does take much more strength to be positive than it does to wallow

i cannot recommend highly enough adopting the habits of seeing the best in people, looking for the good, finding same-sidedness, holding goodwill towards all, choosing kindness in all circumstances, inclining towards the high road, living with love moment by moment, day by day

My timeline is trash. Either “for you” which is filled with BluSean and co, but my following tab is worse because all the people I followed, hardly tweet any more so it’s just official coms accounts.

Women are expected to prevent male violence, anticipate male violence, survive male violence, explain male violence, and then comfort men about male violence.

I wish adults got field trips. Why are we just going to work every day like that’s all there is to life??? Take us to the aquarium. Take us to the zoo. Take us to a museum. I’m tired of spreadsheets. I want to see penguins.

Hey so like what’s up with everyone’s situational awareness. It has gotten really bad. No one seems to understand anymore that there’s other people on the earth with them. Look up from your phone! People are in front or behind you.

Ohh! I can answer this one! It’s because femininity has always been a caricature. It is meant to be a marker/identifier of a particular racial and economic class. If everyone can adopt it, it no longer serves its purpose. In prior generations there were finishing schools.
