It is Aragorn’s first birthday. He’s being spoiled with toys and treats. On Monday my niece and I are going to make him a tuna cake. Happy #Caturday

I was repeatedly called a terrorist by a Conservative for being a Middle Eastern history PhD candidate. He did it three times, even asking me if I was gone from Twitter for six months because I was abroad training to be a terrorist. Are people okay? Because wtf 😳😭

I love telling someone a word is triggering and they continuously use the said word towards me. It got to the point where I felt like I was being trolled or fucked with. Then was told to breathe and calm down when I asked for them to please stop. 🙁😐😬

I love how in Trump’s speech he conveniently forget that the US during both Bush presidencies went after Iran. So no not 47 yrs of being a bully. Know what country has been a bully my entire life (45 yrs) the United States.

In a historic year for women at the Olympics, Trump specifically awarded male athletes with the presidential medal of freedom at the SOTU. They never cared about women’s sports. They never cared about women, period.

I was told by rheumatologist that I need to rest because I’m getting sick. My WBC is through the roof. I asked how I’m supposed to that as a full time student. I was then told you either pick your health or pick school and end up back in the hospital. Yay for lupus 😭

I just got tear gassed along with thousands of union members, many of whom had their families with them. Federal agents at the ICE facility tear gassed children. We must abolish ICE, DHS, and we must have prosecutions. I expect to see enforcement of our city code prohibiting the use of tear gas.

Why do scent and candle companies always seem to think women all want spring scents to include cucumber? What does a cucumber even smell like? I mean I know what they smell like just picked from the garden. Scent companies make all cucumbers smell like Bath & Body in the 90’s though and that's 🤢

we didn't finish denazification. we didn't finish desegregation. we didn't finish reconstruction. every opportunity for transformative change was deliberately sabotaged by american leaders who knew their wealth would not survive a world freed from eugenics, white supremacy, and war profiteering.

I think about Philando Castille often. He did everything right, he was driving with his family, he was a good man who did food nutrition work for schools. It was a clear cut racist stop and use of his owning of a firearm as a posthoc justification to murder him, and the NRA said nothing about it.
