Hey did you know β€˜Iraq’ is not synonymous with war & destruction? #Iraq is #Mesopotamia. The cradle of civilisations. It gave us the first known writings, first poet & first known laws of humanity. Also more recently some of the kindest people I know and the best β€˜istikan’ of tea πŸ€—

You know what would calm inflation and help reduce deficits, Republicans?

Taxing the rich.

Tons of names in my phone are "Kenny Landlord" or "Mike Electric" or "Pete Do Not Answer" and just realized this is how anglo surnames have always worked

Imagine that there an incredibly cheap to produce medication that saves the lives of 1-2% of the population, and all that's needed from politicians is to not ban it.

That's HRT. All we need is bigots to leave us alone. Instead, they'd harm us all.

Getting a lot of questions so to clean up confusionβ€”here’s how to respond when someone wishes you β€œRamadan Mubarak”:
β€’Ramadan Mubarak to you too!
β€’Ramadan Kareem!
β€’Khair Mubarak!
β€’Happy Ramadan!
β€’I will buy you tacos after Ramadan ends!

So if you were unsure how to reply, you’re welcome.πŸ˜‰ May you all have a blessed and happy month full of peace and service to all humanity. Amen. ❀️

Go watch The Good Place

I wrote this song about feeling that I don't belong anywhere, even in close friendships I often feel misunderstood or partly seem, even though my friends are amazing still I often feel alone. I don't know exactly why, maybe it's my neurodiversity, but this song is more from a spiritual place in a way. Listen if you'd like, I'd be happy to hear your thoughts. Of course, this is only a very rough demo (phone recorded). It's called Find Me πŸ’™

When I lived in Eastern Washington state, we called it "freezing rain". Came down as rain, hit the ground, immediately turned to ice. Walking across the parking lot was an exercise in fine motor control and balance.

@Miriamm @ScottSoCal Conferences like this typically book stuff at least a couple of years ahead, so I assume they were locked in before DeSantis decided to pave his White House run on the bodies of the LGBTQ+ community. It’s unlikely Disney would let them change venues without paying through the nose, assuming there was even another venue available.

At least that’s my hope. :/

@stux

In earlier days, when food was scarce and work was back-breaking physical labor, plump was desirable, because only affluent people could afford to be plump.
Now tans show you have leisure time, money to travel, time to spend relaxing in the sun, so tans are desirable.

It's just a status symbol, and it doesn't matter if you don't care about status.

I don't do sun tanning or fake tan spray or whatever because I don't care how 'pale' I am..

Many people in the West are willing to get cancer for a ''better look"

Guess what. That "better look" is made up by us and it's bullshit

please, stop talking people down who look 'pale' since they simple don't wanna get skin cancer

It's super annoying, if I'm sick ill tell you. Don't ask because I look natural and not like a baked potato

I eventually tracked these folks down and sent them a nice high-rez version of the photo. I hope they liked it. #photography

πŸ€” Want to reduce abortions? Have full sex education and give kids contraceptives free of charge/shame. That's been shown to do the trick.

Of course, that's not what the GOP is about. They just like spouting off and not doing anything actually useful to the people of this country.

The real paradox of the press is that they have two choices:

1. An open protocol for which they can report on news on their own terms
2. A proprietary platform where press inquiries are answered with πŸ’©

And they opt for the 2nd option!
