Reposted by Marisa KabasRose/T.A. Summers @rosepetals1984.bsky.social · 4hOne of the reasons I continue to do long form content when I can is to give time and space to unpack things I read, watch, play, and otherwise do. Some of us still appreciate when people take their time and I try to hold steady with that myself despite the pressure to condense. 51468
Marisa Kabas @marisakabas.bsky.social · 4hi’ve noticed recently that when i’m having an in-person conversation, i feel this internal pressure to make my point faster/a perception that the other person is growing impatient. and i realized it’s because we’re so used to getting info in quick clips now that a longer explanation feels foreign. 46111383

We sat in the witness room for nearly 2 and a half hours as she received two rounds of pentobarbital. She was taken away in an ambulance shortly after that and I can't say for sure if she is dead or alive at this moment. 17471107
Reposted by Marisa KabasLiliana Segura @lilianasegura.bsky.social · 01/10/2026The tortuous, botched execution of Christa Pike is truly horrifying. And while it feels unique in some ways, in reality it is also only the latest in a history of botched executions going back years — YEARS — in numerous states. Please know: this is the reality of the death penalty in this country. 111279376
