GenX, so I really don’t exist. But seriously, I garden, go for long walks, and take life slowly; I believe in democracy, equal access, and inclusion.

EDIT: Wow, thank you all for the many amazing and helpful suggestions! These are great, thank you! We do have almond meal, buckwheat and rice flours (we've got gluten intolerants/coeliacs in our household too) so we'll be able to try some of these recipes and ideas out over the next week or so. I'll update with the results :)

Kid2 is making a cake for her gluten-free friend and the friend has requested carrot cake. So far we've had two test cakes (it's for a special occasion so Kid2 wants it to be very good) and neither has been amazing. Edible? Yes. But not special occasion-worthy.

Does anyone have a failsafe gluten free carrot cake recipe? Boosts very much appreciated

We are not doing this anymore. This whole "oh no but the trooooops" thing. If you love those troops fund the VA hospitals. Raise the pay. End the wars. Be quiet.

Nobody is buying it anymore.

Can't the Hague just come and preemptively arrest everybody in power right now and save a lot of lives or something please

Always a good time these days to repost this slide from an IBM internal presentation in 1979.

Here's to all the kids who were born with non-default settings; to all you who put the effort in to figure yourselves out.

You're amazing and deserve to be celebrated.

I'm glad you're here 💝

"A man free of patriarchy is a man who has found not only every woman's humanity, but one who has at last discovered his own. The actual path to liberation for lonely men is feminism—because pursuing an identity based on dominating others is self-isolating."

It's a invitation, not a threat. The path to liberation for lonely men is feminism.

Okay I've seen enough Epstein Files. Now show me the Epstein Trials.

this is completely against the Voting Rights Act ―because proof has never been enough for fascists.

they will demand you look exactly like whatever photo they decide is you and write exactly the signature they decide is yours. oh, you don't live in the same address? can’t vote. forget about transitioning: you’re a cis woman who had plastic surgery? too bad.

ALL OF THESE EXCUSES WERE USED BEFORE THE #VRA

white people, the fascists are coming for your right to vote.
