This is supposed to be what?

Where? Why was it not submerged then?

🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🇺🇦🇩🇪💙🌊 @dianecarol.bsky.social · 3d

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking

🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🇺🇦🇩🇪💙🌊 @dianecarol.bsky.social · 3d

How do you know that?

I'm not going to say I've been in the hospital forever, I'm just going to say when I came in, I had a head full of dark hair and now it's gray. I'll just leave it at that and let you make your own conclusions

They ran this one blood test that sounds like a sorority. Kappa/Lambda free light chain serum

Day 11 of captivity. I thought today would see my release, but I'm afraid it may not. I have another test. I still have chest pain that requires morphine, (and if you know me, that means it's really, really bad). I need balloons and donuts, stat

Day 10. I think I'm just going to ask for a factory reset instead of trying to figure out what went wrong. My new release date from captivity is tomorrow. Send donuts

Day 8 of captivity. Who knows how long I'll be kept here.

OK, it's just the hospital, but still

Shocker

I saw a dad say this about his autistic son, "I do not pray to god to fix him. He's not broken. I pray that I will see him in the glorious way he was created." The rest of his message was powerful and beautiful

But didn't he say Biden was so senile that he needed a teleprompter and he never used one?

I find this focus on autism very disturbing. Not only are autistic people being referred to as broken, they are being seen as unable to function in society. It is yet another push to try and force those who don't fit the norms to change, rather than society to change to include them

I'm not sure why so many people think autism is automatically bad and that autistic people need to be "fixed". Non-verbal autism is common, but being non-verbal does not mean they can't communicate or have a lack of thought or understanding. Stop infantilizing autistic people

When will people realize that the problems and violence in the Middle East and a lot of countries in Africa, are the direct result of colonialism and the carving up of nations by the colonial invaders?

The problem with ignoring the evidence to convict the wrong person because you don't like that person, it's that the real criminal remains free and no justice took place

Disney does not hesitate to go after anyone, children included, who "violates" their copyrights, but bends the knee to a man who clearly and consistently violates their rights and threatens their existence.

I'm disgusted by the rights response to police violence. They cheer it on. In their eyes, the police can do no wrong and everyone they hurt/murder, deserves it. They are complicit in the fascist takeover of our country. We've seen this before and it will not end well

Harper Moyski. Fletcher Merkel. Say their names. Honor them. Don't forget them and every other child slaughtered in their classrooms. We should be outraged over this. We should mourn. We should fight for change.

Why aren't we talking about a real hero, Victor Greenawalt, who shielded his friend during the shooting at Annunciation Catholic Church? He got shot, trying to save his friend. Let that sink in. All yourself why we are not talking more about him
