I loved Wonder Woman as a kid in the 70s, had a cheap bagged costume, flew around in my invisible jet with my Lasso of Truth (a jumprope), twirling around for my quick-change. I love that my hero then is still such an inspiring person now.
Hey!
Calling all Wonder Women!
We all are sisters…pulling together with one spirit.
50 years ago today the first episode of the series Wonder Woman aired.

Thinking about the social stigma against eating fast food in a country where poor people are being starved by the govt, the cost of groceries and fresh vegetables are astronomical, and a cheeseburger at McDonald’s costs $3.50.
“Clean” and “healthy” eating rhetoric is racist, ableist, and classist.

Folks, if you are hungry, please contact your local Sikh gurdwara. Or just show up for langar, which most gurdwaras do several times a week, for a free meal. Lots also do weekly or monthly drives giving out groceries.
No conversion necessary. Feeding anyone who is hungry is a key part of Sikhism.

A lady on TikTok has been calling churches pretending to be a mother with a baby who needs formula and several churches turned her away. But wouldn’t you know that when she called a Mosque (Islamic Center of Charlotte) they immediately said yes.

Fortunately the sun is out in Seattle today, so as I start to dig my own grave in the backyard, at least my face will be briefly warm.
I made a “how do you do, fellow kids?” joke to someone in their mid 20s who, it turns out, was too young to have heard of that meme.
So “how do you do, fellow kids?” is now an example of “how do you do, fellow kids?”

To put this in scale, Elon Musk's salary from Tesla alone could fund the SNAP program for the entire country into 2034.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk scored a resounding victory on Thursday as shareholders approved a pay package of as much as $878 billion over the next decade, endorsing his vision of morphing the EV maker into an AI and robotics juggernaut.

Not-so-gentle reminder that lower prices for GLP-1 are a good thing for those who need them and / or want to use them to reduce weight; lower drug prices are not an excuse to bully people into using them because EVERYONE MUST BE THIN.

Don't forget that Zohran Mamdani spent his entire campaign standing proudly beside the trans community. He went to trans rights rallies just to show support. He proudly waved trans rights flags without hesitation. He refused to back down in support of trans rights. That makes me happy.

I have spent a lot of time today trying not to tell off people I am really tired of, so I will heartily turn all of that self-restraint loose at this time, and say to billionaire racists and their supporters: GET ABSOLUTELY FUCKED.
