When was half this size, @catlynne333 & I would very often welcome the new folks upon arrival in groups. There are So Many of you who have recently arrived here that it's probably not possible to do that like we had been doing, but I would like to say "Hi" to you if you're new here, and "Welcome to !" Please, consider going Pro to be supporting this incredible playground & @th3j35t3r for all the hard work he puts into keeping us up & running!

Today was rough. Solidarity with all the other “over educated” or whatever that means… and angry. Sending love

Dear Friends & New Friends & Possible New Friends,

Can you please take the roughly 5 seconds* extra to add to your posts that relate to *all* things political so that those of us who like to control our intake of negative news can continue to enjoy our time here?

Asking for a friend, and probably other friends here too. 💚

Thanks for your help.

* Yes. I timed myself typing it. Slowly.

Continuing to share my in the hopes of making more connections on here. The recent news about Roe v. Wade got me thinking about a piece on the collapse of the United States as a world leader that I wrote in the run-up to the 2020 election.

Is This the Dawn of the Post-American Era?

I do not use hashtags for my own safety (I was doxxed on another site & had my home violently attacked last year because of a hashtag attracting RWNJ's) so , if you want to use hastags with this, please borrow the image and create a new post. Thanks for understanding.

I just want to give every American who needs one an internet mom hug. What a stressful time this is. Love to all of you. Those of us outside of your country and fighting alongside you, too. You're not alone.

Waking up with this feeling today that reminds me all too much of the feeling I woke up with on November 9, 2016.

Hashtags let people filter out topics. Using them shows kindness and consideration here

For who are also . I feel your anger. I feel your outrage, and I am angered by all those speaking out about their rights being taken while they stood silently for years, comfortable in their power where we were not. I see you. I hear you. I understand.

It's my youngest's 16th birthday today. I wish we didn't have to talk about justice today, but we do. I won't let her fight for her future alone.
