Court can't go on like this. The Constitution as plainly as possible says people who were born here have an unequivocal right to citizenship. Four people whose ONLY job is to read the Constitution for the rest of their lives just tried to overturn it because they're tired of brown people. Pack it.

Having a cat is so cool. There is a little creature in my bed who loves me and vibrates like a tiny motorcycle and is so fuzzy and wants to snuggle. How could I want anything else

Parents need to get better at teaching their kids that swear words aren’t actually bad, they’re just only appropriate in certain contexts. This little girl at the grocery store just held up a bag of cauliflower rice and said “WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS” and she deserves a fucking Oscar

🚨Now is the time to prepare. When Trump’s presidency ends, we must be ready to hold every enabler & everyone following illegal orders accountable. Build legal strategies, support rights organizations, and organize your communities. Justice can’t wait, and we must be ready to act on day one #3E

What a contrast: On the one hand, one grandiose spectacle in the nation's capital, a panorama of propaganda put on by an aspiring autocrat. On the other hand, thousands of assemblies of free citizens across the nation, authentic celebrations of the proposition that here the people rule.

Genuinely has anyone *ever* been owned so badly as a man who converts to a new religion as an adult and sorta makes it his whole thing only to see the literal head of that religion rebuke his entire deal and then they choose the NEXT head of the religion specifically because he doesn't like you

Robin says: #TransRights #TransArtMay
Art piece of a digital painting of an American robin sitting on a nest with three eggs. There is one blue, one pink, and one white egg to represent the colors of the trans flag. There is a tree trunk behind the bird and green pointy leaves all around. The bird has an orangish-red belly and dark brownish-black head and wings.

Y'all so pro-life but you don't think about the lives of the mothers. Or orphans. Or foster chidren. Or the poor. Or the abused kids whose parents didn't want them. Y'all just care about the fetuses you didn't help make, won't raise, and won't think about once they're born. Save it
