A year ago, egg producer Cal-Maine pocketed $39.5 million in quarterly profit. This time around it was $323 million, a 718% increase.

But I thought all those expensive eggs were inflation and bird flu? ktla.com/news/money-smart/egg-

But if we hold ONE rich white man accountable for his crimes, what’s next? Holding SOME rich white men accountable for their crimes? Holding ALL rich white men accountable for their crimes? It’s a slippery slope.

Anti-abortion laws which criminalize those who help women obtain them attack bonds between women & other loving relationships. They also posit women and girls are property (wives property of husbands, girls property of parents). @moiradonegan

@ajsadauskas economics is the religion that occupies the void in society vacated after the enlightenment.

Imaginary concepts conjured by the ruling class, protected from scrutiny, and imposed upon the masses.

Mythology was replaced with selective mathematics and finance.

Cathedrals replaced with banks.

Churches replaced with financial institutions.

God replaced with GDP.

Grew up in Texas & Taiwan
Worked in Bordeaux & Austria

It would've been amazing if I spoke English with a Texan accent, Mandarin with a Taiwanese accent, French with a South-West accent, and German with an Austrian accent.

And then confuse the hell out of people.

Matthew 6:5

“And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full"

Marjorie Taylor Greene is trying to build a crowd to go with her to NYC to protest. They have NO idea what they are in for.

On #TransDayOfVisibility, let's have more visibility of who's behind the anti-trans movement.

Groups like Alliance Defending Freedom are waging a multimillion-dollar campaign cruelly targeting trans people.

These groups don't care about freedom — they just want to spread hate.

@ramin_hal9001 Also, this "it's not the worst thing he did, so they shouldn't bother prosecuting him for it" essentially advocates giving him a get-out-of-jail free card for any crime short of treason. No. Prosecute him for any crimes for which there's evidence that can convict him, just like the rest of us would be.

I'm just gonna go and say it.

the age from which children should be allowed to change their name, their legal gender, and pick their own pronouns is 0.

they're not going to develop that wish before they have developed a sense for how gender works, and from the moment that they have, they should be able to be who they want to be.

sure, allowing even small children this type of freedom would mean a lot more experimentation, going back and forth, reversing choices, and would require a much more fluid understanding of names, gender and identity.

but why should that be a bad thing?
