What odd advice do you strictly follow? Me-always wear panties under pantyhose. I was 14, and a woman on tv said even though pantyhose are panties and hosiery you should still wear panties under them because if you’re arrested they’ll take them away and you’ll be sitting in jail with no underpants.

70% of Americans who receive food stamps and Medicaid work full time, with Walmart one of the worst offenders as the country’s single largest employer. Taxpayers shouldn’t be forced to subsidize corporations who get away with paying poverty wages, especially not while raking in record profits.

Matt Gaetz was one of the few Republicans who voted against the anti-human trafficking bill — kind of a tell. Gaetz said if the ethics report of his bad behavior was released this week he’d call out other monstrous Republicans. Wonder if those who voted no along side him are on his list 🧐

All over the world, there’s been a lot of neo-Nazi fist-pumping since Trump claimed victory in November. Add to that Musk’s recent endorsement of AfD — Germany’s radical-right, neo-Nazi political party. Very specifically, Trump’s broadly promoted plans for the mass deportation of immigrants…

THIS FLEW UNDER THE RADAR Members of the German neo-Nazi political group AfD plan to attend Trump’s inauguration. They’ve actively been engaging with U.S. conservatives & trying to capitalize on Trump’s momentum. Keep an eye on this, especially in light of Elon’s newly discovered support of AfD. 🧵

I cannot imagine a world without Sesame Street. Grover. Bert. Ernie. Big Bird. Oscar. Snuffleupagus. Cookie Monster. The Count. Harry. Telly. I think for many of us these are characters who exist somewhere between fantasy and reality, as they were there for us daily as we formed our sense of self.

The enormity of this loss of wisdom, compassion, and hope from our WH is nothing short of crushing. I’m going to miss President Biden with all my heart. 💔

My my my. Sounds pretty cult like to me. Just changed cult leaders? Missed 85% of the votes when she was the Hawaii rep? Russian media has described her as Russian asset? Was put on TSA watch list due to her unsponsored trips to terrorist countries? The treasurer for her PACs = G Santos treasurer?

School vouchers are a re-segregation tax, in which everyone is forced to pay the most racist white people so they can avoid sending their kids to schools with minorities. The only plus side is that the schools suck and don't help their kids get into better colleges. 🙏

The "lung float" test is being used to charge women with murder. Many experts say it's unreliable. “There’s no way you can determine live birth versus stillbirth with this test," said one doctor, who called the test “an outrageous breach of science.” ➡️ Follow @deldeib.bsky.social (Pub. Oct. 2023)

Good morning and Happy Thursday to everyone who is determined to turn up the volume and EXPOSE all of the brutal, deadly consequences of abortion bans in America. They're not "pro-life." They're pro controlling women's bodies.
