I wish we would stop normalizing whiteness, maleness, and cisness. if you're going to say "Sheila, a black trans lesbian", also say, "Jared, a cis white heterosexual". Yes, in everyday conversations. While we're at it, Robert Bruce Banner should be referenced as "HeHulk"

So much in horticulture is held together by this unspoken idea that nature isn't good enough as we find it, and that altering it is a testament of our love and adoration more than our uncomfortableness with ourselves and the places we find ourselves in.

Fight, flight, or FREEZE The fallacy that the “perfect victim” of sexual assault/rape is one who fights back or runs to get help is extremely harmful. A 2016 report found 70% of survivors experienced some freezing & 48% experienced extreme tonic immobility during the assault.

Tonic Immobility is a common trauma response that is often used as a way to victim-blame. You can read more about this trauma response on our blog: shatteringthesilence.org/blog/tonic-imm

@AMCarrieWoerner
spoke about affordable housing vs attainable housing. Affordable suggests a threshold that leaves people on edges that go unseen and aren't advocated for. We need attainable housing. Vote 4 local voices supporting quality of life for all. #BlueWave

If you can...help my bday twin out I would really appreciate it. Even a RT helps! It's super cold where she lives and winter is coming. Lawd knows she's stubborn so this was hard for her to ask. Help a disabled veteran with a flooded basement gofund.me/70ebb521

These alarming Moms For Liberty facts won’t matter to some journalists who only see these parents, and those anti-school masking parents as warriors for both their own kids, AND for the poor kids who obviously need saving because no one else cares to fight for them properly.

Members of Moms For Liberty, the group actively banning books across the country, terrorizing queer kids, and taking over school boards, calling for LGBTQ kids to be put in separate classrooms “like kids with autism and Down syndrome”.

This is a dangerous precedent. If you examine the language - the teen is 'too young' to make a decision to terminate a pregnancy but old enough to assume parental responsibilities. Yeah, read that again. Transferring rights to bodily autonomy to the state. Are you okay with that?

Make no mistake about what's happening here. When it comes to abortion rights, young people have long been the thin edge of the wedge to pry away the reproductive rights of all. And those dependent upon state "care" are subject to the most coercion. miamiherald.com/news/politics-

The status of minors in a post-Roe America: Not mature enough to make decisions over your own body, but mature enough to be forced to continue with a pregnancy.

Florida appeals court affirms an order prohibiting a parentless 16-year-old from terminating her pregnancy on the grounds that she has not proved she is mature enough to get an abortion. So the state will force her to have a child instead. s3.documentcloud.org/documents/2213
Appellant, a minor, wishes to terminate her pregnancy. She appeals the trial court’s dismissal of her petition seeking judicial waiver of the parental/legal guardian notice and consent provisions under section 390.01114, Florida Statutes. The trial court found, based on the nonadversarial presentation below, that Appellant had not established by clear and convincing evidence that she was sufficiently mature to decide whether to terminate her pregnancy. Having reviewed the record, we affirm the trial court’s decision under the deferential standard of appellate review set out in the governing statute. § 390.01114(6)(b)2., Fla. Stat. (2022) (“T he reason for overturning a ruling on appeal must be based on abuse of discretion by the court and may not be based on the weight of the evidence presented to the circuit court since the proceeding is a nonadversarial proceeding.”).
