This iconic 1971 photo of Gloria Steinem and Dorothy Pitman Hughes has always said so much without saying a word. Two women. Two raised fists. One shared fight for equality. Dorothy passed in 2022. Now Gloria is gone too. Two giants who helped change America. Rest in power, Gloria. ✊🏼✊🏾

Best $5 I’ve spent at the record store in while. Took a chance on this British pop/reggae/folk rock band I’ve never heard of upon reading the lyrics “What’s keeping the White House white / is it chalk, is it fog, is it fear?” Glad I snagged it! #NowSpinning #LatinQuarter #ModernTimes

I am embarrassingly late to this game, but I started listening to Bad Bunny this AM. Can’t understand a word he’s saying (& I’m a lyrics person 😭😭) but, f*ck, he’s talented & his music is catchy! Currently watching his NPR Tiny Desk concert 🎶🎶 F*ck MAGA & I can’t wait for the SB halftime show.

The way I saw those two and thought “Taylor Swift songs” and then quickly realized…nope. #Swiftie

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

It's simply amazing to me that the U.S. spent 70 years (1945-2015) constructing a post-WW2 military, economic, and social world order to its liking, only to turn around and decide it was actually the victim of this order the entire time.

Wow! France gifted her to us, and now they’ve captured what so many Americans are feeling on Independence Day. The values the Statue of Liberty stood for are no more. 📌 A stunning mural of the Statue of Liberty covering her face was unveiled in Roubaix, France, on July 3, 2025.

Today, USAID shuts down. Experts say this could lead to 14 million deaths by 2030—including 4.5 million babies and children under 5. Let’s not forget, Trump recently let a warehouse full of food aid rot rather than feed the hungry. This isn’t America first. It’s America heartless.

My daughter relies on Medicaid. We don't "get" Medicaid. We don't receive a check from Medicaid. Medicaid covers her life-saving medical expenses. Medicaid is health insurance. Medicaid is health care. That's what Medicaid is. And that's why we need our senators to #VoteNo and #ProtectMedicaid.

If the Senate's budget is enacted, millions will lose health insurance, millions will fall into poverty, and the national debt will increase by $3.3T. All of this to provide a major tax cut mainly to the rich and big corporations. There is no justification for this.

They bend every law, they break every law, they hack voting machines, they deploy roving gangs of thugs to steal people off the street, they openly embrace racism, they lie nonstop, they incite political violence, and much more. Their evil knows no limits. Then they claim to be followers of Jesus.

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

anyone who got on social media after 2014 or so is under the mistaken impression that the primary goal of social media is for it to Accomplish Something while those of us who have been on since the start know the true purpose of social media is to give us a place to Post so we don't go (more) insane

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants. Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this. Do not.

Undocumented immigrants pay almost $100 billion in taxes each year. The top 1% evade $163 billion in taxes each year. Stop pretending that immigrants are the ones taking advantage of taxpayers.
