Hi! 22 years old and a libra. I like to think out loud a bit.

This is the first time in my life when it's actually fair to criticize the President for gas prices. I've spent so many years explaining to people that Presidents have pretty limited influence over the price of oil and that they do not have a magical lower-gas-prices button on their desk, I almost forgot that the President does actually have a raise-gas-prices button on their desk called "start a war with Iran for no reason"

For vision-impaired: here's a link to the 5-Tweet thread above by Claire Willett, Apr 20. 2021.

Context: George Floyd's murderer is convicted on 3 counts. Afterwards, Nancy Pelosi makes a distraction of herself with offensively tone-deaf white-a-cism while expressing support for verdict.

VP Kamala Harris isn’t even in office yet, and already discussion on her outfits has begun. Imagine being upset because a woman wore sneakers. To discuss the colorism in the Vogue shots is extremely valid, but the sneakers? The lack of theme?

In light of this so-called “Save America March,” I think it bears repeating just how Heraculean Stacey Abrams’s grassroots organizing efforts have been. 

Apparently, there was no marked shift in the American consciousness: by and large, Donald Trump’s loyals have not lost any of their fervor; to this exact point, the demographic seems to have become more entrenched in their ideology, judging by the outwardly treasonous nature of the aforementioned ‘march.’ 

Therefore, one can attribute the Georgian electoral successes of November and Georgia in large part to grassroots efforts to turn out existing voters, as well as register (and update the registration of) thousands of new voters. 

Grassroots organization has been a neglected, unsung hero, but this election cycle has cemented its integral role in developing a more functional democracy. If you find yourself in any position to donate, consider donating to a network of grassroots organizations. Remember: organizing is always relevant, not only in election years.

you hit bitches with an “i’m apolitical” and they tell you that being apolitical is an inherently political act because it serves to defend the active preservation the status quo and hence shows tacit support for the (inherently oppressive) current state of society and politics

“art is a luxury” is such a disgustingly capitalist concept. the need to make and engage with art, to have beauty and creation, is absolutely fundamental to humans. art should be a human right.

When someone discloses abuse perpetrated by someone you find super likable - fight your urge to not believe them based on how the abuser seems to you. Abusers are great at appearing the way they need to appear to get you on their side.

One last thing for tonight. You don’t call immigrants “low IQ” and then get to also say you aren’t racist or ableist. He literally was like “hmmm what’s the least offensive thing I could say out loud? Yeah this is the best that I got.”

Saying that a dictator and you have a special relationship is. A Choice.

The word choice in the coronavirus debate is very interesting, I think, because Joe Biden is talking about human lives—our lives—in terms of human lives, which is logical and empathetic. However, Donald Trump is talking about lives in terms of the lives of businesses: businesses that he held up the aid for.

There's not a loophole in the 13th amendment, there's just the thirteenth amendment.

Like it's real short, no fine print, just a very open and explicit choice to maintain prison slavery.
