    If you are a white person really struggling to accept the idea of white privilege, I tried my best to talk about it with empathy and vulnerability, but to be clear about what it is and what we are then charged to do when we own it.

    Trump persuaded his evangelicals to disregard the coronavirus and made refusing to wear masks a point of pride. Imagine America as these evangelicals sabotage our future by clinging to Trumps' contempt for democracy. Willfully blinded evangelicals are now America's 1# enemy.

    you're not being bold, man. you and your fans are just LARPing as persecuted Christians by dressing up your healthcare system-crippling concert series as church and drafting Cartoon Jesus into the "cry harder libs" merch grift doesn't make it any less painful for the rest of us.

    We can be BOTH grateful & tired when raising children-- even if we had a hard time adopting/conceiving and feel an obligation to happy all the time. I speak with (Rage Against the Minivan) on the How to about Anything podcast.

    My twitter use these days consists of: 1. Getting on to see if Trump is still pretending he won/ruining our democracy 2. Checking to see if any Republican leaders are holding him accountable yet 3. Closing my browser in despair 4. Repeating this cycle a few hours later

    Hey , you need a daily press conference to the people to counter whatever bullshit the Trump administration is spewing, starting today and every day leading up to Inauguration Day.

    This whole thread.

    The fact is, you can't trust other people to do the right thing. Parents whose kids are showing symptoms or have a sibling at home w Covid ARE allowing their kids to go to school and play sports. That is the reality we live in.

    A fun game I like to play is to not sleep well and then wonder all day if I've tired from COVID, and then worry about it into the night and lose sleep about it, and then get up and do it again the next day.

    Any other California high school football moms have a read on where CIF rules are going? The whole state is locking back down but it seems like football is still moving forward?

    Here is the demographic breakdown for positive tests reported yesterday in Orange County. Stop letting your kids do whatever they want, then expect teachers to sit in an enclosed classroom with them because online learning doesn’t work for you. Be a fucking parent, Becky.

    Yes they did. And the fact that the Republican party is just letting it happen should be an affront to anyone who cares about democracy.

    Did the GOP just attempt to disenfranchise the voters of Detroit in front of the whole world and the Constitution they profess to love?

    Just so we are clear: when we say “Healthcare systems will soon be overwhelmed by the virus” ...by “systems” we mean PEOPLE- brave docs & nurses who have already been putting their lives on the line for months. For their sakes: Keep your distance. Wear masks. Stop being selfish.

    The only rigged part of this election is how Trump tried to stop mail-in ballots and destroy the USPS. It didn’t work and those votes counted. He was obvious and loud about every single move. Next time they don’t be.
