Everyone has their own risk tolerance. Everyone also has their own pain tolerance. Everyone is very very different.

My male coworker complained that my bra straps were showing, he called it “distracting” and said the male equivalent would be a woman seeing a man walking around with his penis out. I just looked at him and asked if he genuinely understood what a bra is. A bra is underwear. Genitals are not. The actual equivalent would be a guy wearing his pants low enough that his boxers are showing….which plenty of men do without anyone acting like it’s obscene. The fact that some men can’t tell the difference between underwear and genitalia says everything. And somehow, they’re still trusted to legislate women’s reproductive rights.

Only supporting abortion in instances of rape or incest reinforces the idea that in order for you to have a right to autonomy, someone else has to violate it first.

Nearly 2 in 3 Americans say President Trump is using the presidency to enrich himself—and most of the increase over the past year comes from people who lean Republican, according to a Post-ABC News-Ipsos poll. wapo.st/3Wcia7p
Poll finds jump in Republicans who say Trump is enriching himself

Poll finds jump in Republicans who say Trump is enriching himself

About one-third of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents now hold that view, up from about one-fifth a year ago, a Post-ABC-Ipsos poll finds.

The Republican-controlled board of elections shut down the 1 early voting site at North Carolina A&T University—a historically Black college—so students marched an hour to vote. CONGRATULATIONS TO THESE STUDENTS FOR FIGHTING BACK. WE MUST ALL DO THE SAME.

I'm sick of it. Everything costs more. I have friends who can't find work. I have friends who have lost their health care. And meanwhile, Trump is playing golf and throwing parties on the taxpayer dime. Enough. Check your damn voter registration: midterms.voteamerica.org/vot…

Thank Donald Trump and the Republican Congress for high gas prices and skyrocketing mortgage rates. Had enough of their America Last policies yet?

Y'all the Kelly Clarkson cctv footage dropped and not only is Kelly very clearly telling the truth, she walks around the store and puts the multiple items she planned to purchase back where she found them. If you've worked one shift in retail you know how rare that is for anyone, let alone an upset customer.

As a former female baby, I do no resent my parents for piercing my ears before I could tell them it was what I wanted. I actually saw the two and added four more. I hope this helps.

If men had periods period products would be free there would also be federal holidays and paid days off. Abortions would be free as would birth control.

@preposterousbbgOct 11
Men are in my comments crying because I said period products should be free since menstruation isn’t a choice And they keep replying with: “Food should be free too, hunger isn’t a choice.” Like… yes? infact I actually agree.

This is completely outrageous and disgusting. This must immediately be blocked by Congress and Trump should be impeached for this. The US is now funding Putin’s war machine as he murders civilians including children. We are lost as a country.

Reminder to ICE agents: Per a bill of mine the Governor just signed — and which is now in effect — if you violate someone’s constitutional rights in California they can sue you. Your era of impunity is over. Your actions and your terror quotas now have consequences.

Replying to @StanfordHealth
@StanfordHealth it is unconscionable that you all moved vision therapy, a service for blind people, to Portola Valley. There is little to no public transit options in Portola Valley. You also don’t have a shuttle from Caltrain to that clinic. We are not all rich.

By moving this clinic to San Mateo County, you have relegated blind people to use paratransit in said county. It is literally the worst paratransit company in the entire Bay area. VTA access is far better. I will be filing a formal complaint and CCing all of Stanford healthcare

Leadership. During a cost of living crisis and with soaring high gas prices, this shows how little you care for your patients and for the people who work for you.
