Performance Evaluations are like doing your taxes: you’re supposed to do it all yourself and then they tell you what you did wrong.

#trans people, what is your #TransAgenda today? I did laundry and am now wearing a thick cozy hoodie fresh and warm from the dryer. Later I'll make pasta and watch a movie with a friend. #RadicalTransAgenda

If you see a kid hitting other kids on the playground with sticks, do you:

1. Give all the kids sticks
2. Give the baseball team sticks and tell them to protect the other kids from sticks
3. Take away the sticks
4. Ban trans kids from the playground

If you said 4, congrats you're a Republican.

When I was teaching third grade in Oakland and we had a lockdown because of an armed person in the building, one of my newer students started crying and another student said, "Don't worry, Ms. Harris will never let the man with a gun get you."

Do you know what that feels like?

The pressure. The trust. The fear that I'd have to. The fear that I wouldn't be able to.

It has been 16 years since I left the classroom and I am crying while typing this because of the visceral memory.

it's been a while since i've taken any selfies (to the point that i haven't posted any to this account) but i'm hot and everyone needs to know it

Gov. DeSantis’ handpicked board overseeing Disney World’s government services is gearing up for a potential legal battle.

Ahead of state takeover, Disney quietly pushed through a pact and restrictive covenants tying the hands of board members for decades

Guys, ya'll need to chill the fuck out and start blaming assault rifles.

#Nashville shooter didn't use an assault rifle - she used a PISTOL!!!

... semiautomatic AR-15 pistol
... with a 10-inch barrel
... chambered with 5.56 cartridge
... holding 30 rounds

BIG DIFFERENCE!!! /sarcasm

@ScottSoCal 🤨 Whose side are you on? 😆

These are the types of homes the bishops and apostles at the top of the LDS pyramid scheme are building in Utah. Only 3% of tithing revenue is spent on bona fide charity programs. The rest is spent on real estate and other stockpiles of wealth.

Lady Justice is blindfolded because she's in the middle of a game of Pin the Indictment on the Jackass. If she peeks, I didn't see a damn thing.

Co-workers: What is wrong with you?

Me: I'm the technical difficulty...🤭

CW: You certainly are. 🤨

Me: Hey! 😒

CW: JK

Me: *they are most definitely not jk*

Intersex people exist

Intersex folk are a deserved part of the LGBTQIA+ community and have their own set of struggles. It's crucial we're not excluding anyone from our community and we all uplift each other. That's the beauty of a community 💛💜💛

Maybe something like, can we have a "Trans Day Of Rest" instead? A "Trans Day Of Leave Us The Fuck Alone"? A "Trans Day Of Just Not Having To Worry About What Shit The Media Is Writing About Us All Today", perhaps?

I'm so tired. I'm so very, very tired.

@imstilljeremy @jewishreader @StillIRise1963 @JRBuckley @Steve When I was coming up, it was often said we "had to be patient" instead of demanding civil rights that they (white people) exercised without hindrance or question.

Mike Pence has a dilemma. With a new federal court order for him to testify before Special Counsel Jack Smith’s grand jury, Pence is running out of time, arguments and options. Aw, poor guy. I explain his predicament in today’s piece. https://statuskuo.substack.com/p/the-perils-of-mike-pence-a-quick?sd=pf

I continue to be mystified by the sentiment that being a First Amendment advocate means *socially* tolerating people I find obnoxious or contemptible. I keep getting “what kind of free speech advocate blocks people?” The kind who doesn’t deal with assholes when not professionally compelled to do so. The First Amendment isn’t a hair shirt.

Idk what this says about me.

I have meetings spread throughout the day... with 30-minute gaps between.

This means that very little is going to happen because I will either be winding down from one meeting or preparing for the next meeting.

I sorta wish I could squish them all together into a single marathon block
