Hey World, I had more than enough of existentialism in my 20s. So please, let's get our shit together, shall we?

i’m so sick of the “this person was chronically ill but stayed positive!” inspiration porn shit. what about those of us that are fucking pissed? we exist and we aren’t any less deserving of accessibility.

Why did no one tell me how freakin stellar Tia Carrera is as Lady Danger on "AJ and the Queen?" I mean really. I'm not mad, just disappointed.

Hi, I don’t like talking about personal stuff here, but in light of anti-Asian violence in my native ATL, I want to share my experience of being assaulted by a group of strangers a block from my NYC apt in 2018, to shed light on how real anti-Asian hate is and always has been.

Well, actually: A thread:

I want to know their names, who and what they loved, the people they had waiting for them at home, everything they hoped for. I want to know the fabric of their days and the contexts of their lives.

Just thinking about the "not-a-cat" cat lawyer still makes me smile 😸

“It’s wrong. It’s un-American. And it must stop.” - @POTUS on the surge of anti-Asian attacks. #StopAsianHate

Just popping on with this vitally important thought: @netflix's "Teenage Bounty Hunters" is an excellent show with an unfortunate name but plenty of humor and social commentary. It really needs to be picked up for a second season! Now back to your regularly scheduled program.

You're making soup. A neighbor barges in & asks, "Whatcha makin'?" You're startled, but say, "Split pea soup!" She exclaims, "I can fix this!" & dumps the soup on the floor & tells you to do yoga in it. This is what unsolicited medical advice is like.

In the late 1600s or early 1700s, a man was enslaved and brought to Boston. He was renamed Onesimus, meaning "useful, helpful, or profitable." We do not know his real name.   He would become one of the most important figures in American public health. #BlackHistoryMonth

Preach: "Despite all the gains women have made, they still face an enormous pressure and expectation to become mothers. ... Many childfree women feel stigmatized, misunderstood, and alone."

It is a problem that Pharma dominates tv advertising. Other countries don’t allow Pharma to try and talk you into a prescription drug that your doctor hasn’t recommended. Adds to the cost. And is underwritten by your tax dollars (it’s deductible) Needs to end. I tried.

Word of the day is 'huff snuff' (16th century): one who shares their opinion far and wide but is quick to take offence if anyone disagrees.

I was trying to figure out why the obsession over this story was hitting me so bad...@sfpelosi hits it right on: ableism and ableist language.
