Heading out to return my #ballot! Don't forget to #vote in the August primary, and do not skip the local elections! Local politicians actually have a lot of impact on your daily life, & they're where your vote counts the most, so research carefully before filling that bubble. 🫶

And Ted Cruz's signature lack of self-awareness:

Screenshot from Article linked by OP:

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) also questioned who helped Trump with the deal.

“History teaches that giving billions of dollars to theocratic lunatics who want to murder us is not a good idea. I think the president is receiving some very poor advice on this deal,” he told The Hill.

And of course he blocked me. Because the experience of a trans person who grew up with sh*tty parents is clearly irrelevant to a discussion of parents being sh*tty to trans kids.

@hiphopstorian quoteposting skeet by @gianmarcosoresi which screenshotted @MarlowNYC

Marlow Stern says, "Marlon Wayans on having a trans son and Dave Chappelle as a best friend: "Dave wants to freely tell his joke, and if you're going to be anti-comedy, then he's going to keep attacking you until you learn to have sense of humor.

Gianmarco Soresi quotes Stern and adds "Comedy is attacking someone until they learn to have a sense of humor"

Cheef Kief quotes Soresi and adds "I love how yall dictate how people should feel and move on topics that effect them. Now yall care morea bout trans kids than their own parents huh. "Hate Dave Chappelle bc I do." Grow TF up.

Kief blocked RMC, because they quoted him and added, I care more about trans kids than my parents cared about me when I was a closeted trans kid. We know what we're talking about because we lived it. Hope that helps."

Nuff said.

Two plates, one with 2 partially eaten pupusas, a small cup of salsa rojo, and curtido, the other with a delectable chocolate and custard dessert.

Dems want to have constituents, but go running at the barest hint of accountability TO those constituents, yet still want us to believe we live in a democracy.

Screenshot of @popstonox post link to a story about Mallory McMorrow, a centrist Democrat candidate from Michigan, who asked to be on influencer Matt Berstein's podcast, but dropped out after being told she would be asked questions on healthcare and foreign policy.

Post has headshots of McMorrow and Bernstein at the bottom. McMorrow is a redhead with a "deer caught in headlights" look while Bernstein is slaying a studded rainbow manicure.

I had a phase in my teens when I related really hard with T.S. Eliot, and now I'm wondering why tf my parents didn't get me on zoloft or something, because seriously a 14yo should not be writing "this is the way the world ends..." all over their junior high notebooks.

She did not go back to her own seat. She cinnabonned in my lap & stayed there for hours until I stopped for food & a little walk. Well, when she ignored my...suggestion & curled up in my lap, I looked at myself in the rearview, & I had the same look in my eyes you had in that photo. That was it.

Adopted 2 of these super-comfy chairs off the curb. I swear, this neighborhood is better than any thrift store.

Me, trying to my morning PT. Roo:

A person's legs. One is up in the air, the other is lying across the back of a small dog who insists on stretching across the bed the person is lying on.
