Do you think people watched Sons of An@rchy & thought that was... what bikers are like... in the real world? I get the whole 'big, tattooed, leather road warrior' societal mythos but like... That's just a mafia. Or a gang. Who happens to use Harleys instead of like, town cars.

Um. Can we discuss how unjust it is that James Frain is so sorely underrated?

I don’t think you’re thinking big enough, though. Any nerd can go on about Thor’s Hammer… I think superweapon votes should go for nothing less than Knife Missiles.

They strip of us our rights from literal birth (they do this to ALL people) and repeat the cycle generationally. Generations which they push and force and delight in seeing getting shorter and shorter by the way, because faster = more people, less educated people, more frightened and hungry people.

As soon as the fetus (being the scientific name for fertilization to birth) is born and there is an actual human infant involved - they couldn’t care less what happens next. To the baby. The mother. The family. The community. (cont.)

I always say they’re not pro-life. They’re pro-pregnancy. Pro-disadvantaged-population-growth. Because as soon as that presumably: not prepared for, or healthy enough to live, or unwanted, or not-welcome surprise, or product of violence.. I could go on… (cont.)

I’ll say though, my Doc is a QUEEN and refused to back down. Was like a dog with a bone on my behalf, going so far as to call manufacturers herself abt the “shortage”.
My usual pharmacy was amazing, too, and called to give me updates every other day for weeks.
Still? We were unsuccessful.

Me and my doc had to send “official” emails ahead of time to tell pharmacies we’d be calling to ask abt Vyvanse stock bc every time I tried they’d be like “you’re clearly seeking out meth” and even Doc was given attitude 😤🤦♀️

After hellish months of trying meds (I call that the “cocktail phase”), Vyvanse was next up to try; it was World Changing™ - I had exactly ONE MONTH of relief before the “shortage” and then it was back to the drawing board and the weird, emotional devastation of knowing what is POSSIBLE 😫

Perfection was my mother’s response (to my face!) when I came out (when I was 23ish):
“Duh.”
And then there were hugs and lots of [we literally don’t care who you date as long as they’re not villains]’s all around 🩷
Love to you, too!

My signal is TimD.503 if you have unauthorized information from the Pentagon. Thank you for your attention to this matter
NEW: The Pentagon told journalists it will require them to pledge they won’t gather any information — even unclassified — that hasn’t been expressly authorized for release, and will revoke the press credentials of those who do not obey. @washingtonpost.com
Pentagon demands journalists pledge to not obtain unauthorized material
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is imposing strict new rules that would severely limit the ability of journalists to report on the Pentagon.

it's hard to be queer in appalachia, and someone I care a lot about was arrested seemingly for walking home on rural roads while queer after losing his keys. He's trying to raise funds for his court costs.

I wanted both Minnie’s and Elton’s outfits from this when I was a kid when it came out. I really should’ve figured my Coming Out wouldn’t be a surprise to my family…

You know what they call the people who joined the resistance because they believe it is in their financial best interest, rather than because they care about freedom or democracy? They call them the resistance.
