Mature, introspective people have an ethical framework that guides how they live their lives. Other people want a charismatic all-powerful daddy figure to tell them what to believe, who is good and bad, make them feel justified in doing what they want, and release them from the burden of thought.

I wish I were the teeniest bit surprised by Tennessee's botched execution of Christa Pike and the absurdity of subsequent "life-saving care," but it's the fact of it being on-brand for this dystopian timeline that's bumming me out.

VITAL book. I speak from personal experience. One-third of domestic violence victims don’t want to abandon their pet(s), which makes it harder to get away. Shelters rarely accept animals. (This is *gradually* changing.) Amazon links in the Alt text, if you’d like to grab a copy! #domesticviolence
I’m holding a copy of Not Without My Pet: Understanding the relationship between victims of domestic violence and their pets (Andrew M. Campbell, 2021).

Screenshot of a text conversation on a black background. The other person sends: "Le sigh I'm regretting attaining meaningless relationships and rings rather than the sponsor situations presented to me three times while I was young and able to sustain. I literally have a VD, no kids, no husban" followed by three crying-laughing emoji, then "Living with my father." The reply, in a blue bubble: "Girl quit texting me. They're playing over the speakers in my car.L!" A small "HA HA" text bubble follows, then a final row of sixteen crying-laughing emoji.

At 18, they thought a white woman fighting for civil rights must be mentally ill. Joan Trumpauer Mulholland was given a psychological evaluation. At 19 she became a Freedom Rider and was imprisoned at Parchman. She later became the first white member of Delta Sigma Theta. #SheShed #VivaHerAlliance

while being detained by ICE isn’t a hopeless situation, it is a desperate one. detainees need as many people as possible to get up and advocate for them every day. part of that is telling their story and about what is happening to them now, over and over again, to anyone who will listen.

iwasborngood.bsky.social @iwasborngood.bsky.social · 14/09/2026
i keep seeing lists of what to do if someone you love is taken by ICE. all of it necessary, but what people miss is that the system is built to hold people as long as it can and drain their support networks while it does. go straight to the media. you’re going to need a much bigger support network.

people think true crime is mindless voyeurism, but what’s considered a crime, who is committing it, who gets charged with committing it and how they are punished (we don’t do rehabilitation here in the USA) are reflections of our society and the politics governing it in real time.
